On your MT4 Platform, Click on NEW ORDER and then insert half of the trade size number inside VOLUME and close the trade.
Hope this help
Just tried with demo and not clicking new order but from trade tab "Close Order" and from there you can close what ever portion you like. Thank for this, it helped. I actually always thought that Close Order closes the trade completely and immediately. But there was a dialog before closing. I'm always using Easy Order plug-in and my own scripts for handling the trade and therefore never tried MT stuff. Always learning!

Thanks!
He's in the USA... they have lifo fifo... they have to sell to close a buy. in your case simply right click on the order then close order then change the volume and click on close.

All right, now I got it! Thanks for this - both of you. I of course created a script and hotkey. Lazy me ;)
