As error says you can have "type" or "mode" params as array

Only the "Amount" may be array.

If you want to turn stop on/off you should simply modify AMOUNT
so it is very high when you turn it OFF"

And learn using constants to make your code readable
because 0,2,10 does not tell anything

TrStopOn = ... 
ApplyStop( stopTypeTrailing, stopModePercent, IIf( TrStopOn == 1, 6, 1e10 ) ); 
ApplyStop( stopTypeLoss, stopModePercent, IIf( TrStopOn == 1, 1e10, 10 ) );
