Hi,

I have find couple month ago this experts that help me to close partial lots or minilots, I had some modify but it's great it's have trailing and breakeven
It's a faster machine and work so good more faster than my finger...

But If i open a position with 0.6 Lots, or 6 minilots or 60 microlots is the same...and then i want to close like the 40 % at 1 tartget of profit how i can do that ?
I open a 6 minilots position = 60 microlots i want that close 24 micro , but at moment it's close or 20 micro or 30 micro....

I work with 5 digit broker with micro,mini and lots

thanks for help

the code is not longer, i think this is the part where i use % and decide lots to close

Inserted Code
double lots;
if(tplevel == TP1) lots = NormalizeDouble(orderlots*TakeProfit1Percent/100,1);
if(tplevel == TP2) lots = NormalizeDouble(orderlots*TakeProfit2Percent/(100-TakeProfit1Percent),1);
if (lots > 9.9)  lots = NormalizeDouble(lots,0); // do not use fractional lots above 9.9, round to nearest whole lot
if (lots < 0.01) lots = 0.01;                    // this EA transaction limit
if (lots > maxbrokerlots) lots = maxbrokerlots;  // broker server transaction limit
return(lots);

No time to check all the code now but try changing this bit....

Inserted Code
double lots;
if(tplevel == TP1) lots = NormalizeDouble(orderlots*TakeProfit1Percent/100, 2);
if(tplevel == TP2) lots = NormalizeDouble(orderlots*TakeProfit2Percent/(100-TakeProfit1Percent), 2);
if (lots > 9.9)  lots = NormalizeDouble(lots,0); // do not use fractional lots above 9.9, round to nearest whole lot
if (lots < 0.01) lots = 0.01;                    // this EA transaction limit
if (lots > maxbrokerlots) lots = maxbrokerlots;  // broker server transaction limit
if (lots < minbrokerlots) lots = minbrokerlots;
return(lots);

i.e. replace that section with the code above.

Yes, this is right code. You need to normalize the Lot value upto 2 decimal places

Well done, It' seem to work ...that's Greatt thanks so much...on monday i try again in fast market
