Positions have "ModifyTakeProfitPrice". PendingOrders only have "ModifyTakeProfitPips"??

Hi belasto,

Orders accept only relative SL/TP values since do not know the actual execution price. Absolute SL and TP values are calculated only after an order has been placed. Else there is a danger of placing invalid SL/TP values.

RE:

Thanks for the answer. It makes sense this way. However, maybe you can help me with a workaround? Not such a big deal I assume, but I am not sure how to get there.
I am creating one initial Position and 4 PendingOrders afterwards, some kind of grid trading approach. I'd like to give the PendingOrders the same TP as the initial Position. I could add listener on PendingOrder filled and immediately adjust the TP, but is there an easy way to adjust it in advance?

Hi belasto,

After the order is triggered, you can modify your position's TP. You can listen to the Position.Opened event and then use ModifyTakeProfitPrice to set your desired TP price.
