Nauris Zukas position comments. How can I find out which Magic is set in the environment?

First you need to select the position you are going to work with using one of the functions below:

PositionGetSymbol	Returns the symbol of the corresponding open position
PositionSelect	Selects an open position for further work with it.
PositionSelectByTicket	Selects an open position for further work with it according to the specified ticket.

but just note that the PositionSelect() and PositionSelectByTicket() functions have a peculiarity:

PositionSelect() и PositionSelectByTicket()  копируют данные о позиции в программное окружение, и последующие вызовы PositionGetDouble(), PositionGetInteger() и 
PositionGetString() возвращают ранее скопированные данные. Это означает, что самой позиции может уже и не быть (или же она изменилась по объему, 
направлению и т.д.), а данные этой позиции можно еще получать. 
Для гарантированного получения свежих данных о позиции рекомендуется вызывать функцию PositionSelect() и PositionSelectByTicket() непосредственно перед обращением за ними.

then you need to get its Magic:

ulong position_magic = PositionGetInteger(POSITION_MAGIC);

and then you can use position_magic where you want.

What magik is installed in the trading facility. I'd answer, but I'm not at my computer yet.
