The for loop does nothing as you only look at the latest order. If you don't differentiate between different orders and always subtract your 20*Point from the bis why o you even bother to select an order in the first place? OrderStopLoss() helps if you want to look at the at the level of a particular order.

What is the part of the code that just let watch for the latest order? If i have a for loop to look to every order, OrderSelect, this shouldn't look to every order? I'm not understanding that.......

Manel-
op=OrderType() must be in the for loop

Really thanks man!
If you don't use the print statement but only care about the comment there is no need for the loop.

Inserted Code
OrderSelect(0,SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES) or
OrderSelect(OrdersTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES)

I'm using comment to test the loop because now i will replace that with orders
