Bottom of Current Bar Stop EA

Can anyone help with an EA that moves your stop to the bottom of the current bar after a certain number of pips? I am an MT4 coding newb. I have a breakeven indicator that works exactly how I want the Current Bar stop to work Just instead of BE I need to put the stop at the bottom of the current bar. Any help? Attached is the BE EA I use, maybe some one can modify?

if (High[0]-Low[0]>=pips&&sl!=Low[0]&&OrderType==OP_BUY) ordermodify

High[0]-Low[0] this will tell you how many pips the bar is, in the currency ur trading, il use eur-usd for example

if (High[0]-Low[0]>=0.0010 so if the bar is atleast 10 pips in size

sl!=Low[0] and the sl does not already equal the low


so

Inserted Code
if (High[0]-Low[0]>=0.0010&&OrderStopLoss()!=Low[0]&&OrderType==OP_BUY)  OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),Low[0],OrderTakeProfit(),0,CLR_NONE);

youl need to select the orders though

here iv pretty much did it all, might as well finish

put this after start()

Inserted Code
  int totalorders = OrdersTotal();
  for(int i=totalorders-1;i>=0;i--)
 {
    OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS);

if ( OrderSymbol()==Symbol())
     {
if (High[0]-Low[0]>=0.0010&&OrderStopLoss()!=Low[0]&&OrderType==OP_BUY)  OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),Low[0],OrderTakeProfit(),0,CLR_NONE);
if (High[0]-Low[0]>=0.0010&&OrderStopLoss()!=High[0]&&OrderType==OP_SELL)  OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),High[0],OrderTakeProfit(),0,CLR_NONE);
    }
  }
