  Hi together, I use the target profit often but this time it doesn’t work and i can’t understand why.. Perhaps somebody can check if this code seems to be okay?

  TARGET PROFIT 10 means that you want your profit to be set at your openprice + 10, while it should be at openprice + 0.0010  (10 pips).

  The perfect solution would be to use PPROFIT and not PROFIT, because PPROFIT automatically convert the desired points with the point size of the current instrument.
