A library is an option.

Thank you for the idea.

there can only be one order in the market. At the moment this function doesn't work at all... for some reason. But if it will work properly, I understand that it will be triggered all the time, as long as the profit is greater than the set number of pips. Of course, we need it to close half of a position once, and that's it. But I wish it would work at least once.)

I agree with you in my heart that there should be only one order. And then, we partially close, when? In how many seconds or on other terms? Otherwise at some point everything will close and only the drool will be left to spit)))))

Your function should work, at least in the tester. Another question is when to call it....

extern int TP         = 200; // кол-во пунктов, после которых должно произойти частичное закрытие
extern int Magic      = 77;


void CloseHalfOrder(){ // функция вызывается в самом начале цикла Start

for (int i = 0; i<=OrdersTotal(); i++)
  {
    if (OrderSelect (i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES) == true)
      {
        if (OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber() == Magic)
          {
            if (OrderProfit() >= TP*Point)
              {
                 if (OrderType() == OP_BUY) 
                 double Lots = OrderLots(); 
                 double HalfLot  = NormalizeDouble (Lots*0.5,2);
                 OrderClose(OrderTicket(),HalfLot,Bid,0,HotPink);
          
                 if (OrderType() == OP_SELL)
                 double Lots1 = OrderLots(); 
                 double HalfLot1  = NormalizeDouble (Lots*0.5,2);
                 OrderClose(OrderTicket(),HalfLot1,Ask,0,HotPink);
               }
          }
        }
      }
    }

if (OrderProfit() >= TP*Point)

What is this?

if(Bid-OrderOpenPrice()>= TP*Point)//для покупок

if(OrderOpenPrice()-Bid>= TP*Point)//для продаж

Something like this.

it doesn't work. Why not?

That's why:

if (OrderProfit() >= TP*Point)

Do you want points? You're looking at the money.

That's right, the spread is taken into account.

Please advise me on this. Alpari is increasing the spread at the weekend to the extent that the EA is always losing. OK. I can set the spread manually in the Strategy Tester. But in what units? 100, 50, 30, 10 - what is it? Percentage, points, what? I thank you in advance.

In the tester, the spread is in points. Dealers usually have a floating spread. And on Friday at 23:00 it usually rises to unbelievable values. It is better not to trade during this time.
