  1. Why did you post your MT4 question in the MT5 General section instead of the MQL4 section, (bottom of the Root page)?
              General rules and best pratices of the Forum. - General - MQL5 programming forum? (2017)
    Next time, post in the correct place. The moderators will likely move this thread there soon.


  2. eturn = OrderModify(OrderTicket(),Ask,(OrderOpenPrice() + positive_points*_Point),OrderTakeProfit(),0,clrNONE);

    You can not modify the open price of an open order.

Sorry, I sent it in the wrong place, but it wasn't a question, I just wanted to share a code I made that might help someone else, but thank you very much for your answer.
