Show your code if you need coding help.
  
int pips = MathAbs(price_1-price_2)/_Point;
_Point
 
That is the difference in points not PIPs.

Using Point means code breaks on 5 digit brokers, exotics (e.g. USDZAR where spread is over 500 points,) and metals. Compute what a PIP is and use it, not points.
