Help with changing a script

Is there a way to change the attached scripts to close all buys below a certain line and close all sells above a certain line? I am using a grid system that has tons of buys and sells on the chart. And I want to close certain ones (the ones in the highest in profit) but not all of them.

Have done what I think that you want but if it is not right let me know.

***** Use on DEMO first 'cos I am not a coder and cannot guarantee the results!!

Any chance I can get this in an mql4 file? I like to customize the settings for quick use. Thanks again.

What does mProfit mean? Does that mean x pips in profit? Or dollars?

I can't seem to get it working for some odd reason and I am pretty sure it is because of me.

...close all buys below a certain line and close all sells above a certain line...
Plot a horizontal line and name it line.
Move the line where you want to.
Run the script.
If there's ńo line with that name, the script will alert and terminate.

If you want to speed-up things, remove the #property show_inputs line off both scripts. Eventually, you can assign hotkeys to them. So you can just move the line and press keys as the price walks through your grid.

Ok took another look. (shouldn't try and code when I am doing other things!!)

I had used Order Take Profit and not Order Profit.

Give it a try and see if it works just out of my interest.
