Hi

I want to lock the profit once it achieve a certain price level. But before this I do not want to trail in any way. I have tried many different ways but I can code it properly.
Any ideas?

Easy - adjust the stop level using a TMF when profit reaches your desired level.

Thanks. I will try to.
Something like:

Click to reveal..
int lock()
{
if( TradeIsOpen and TradePriceClose==Level )
TradeStopLimit = Level;
return 0;
}


What about using TradeTrailLock from that level if I did not define any trailing before? Is it enough just by writing Trail=0 ?

I think there may be a logic flaw in if(TradePriceClose). TradePriceClose is literally the price in which the trade itself closed, so why would the closing of the trade generate a new stop for a trade that has already closed?

Unrelated to TradePriceClose, your if() condition is never true. Read here why:
