var position = Positions.Find("myLabel");
if (position != null)
{
    var halfVolume = position.Symbol.NormalizeVolumeInUnits(position.VolumeInUnits / 2, RoundingMode.Down);
    var takeProfits = new RelativeTakeProfitProtections(new RelativeTakeProfitProtection(halfVolume, 20), new RelativeTakeProfitLastProtection(40));
    var result = position.ModifyTakeProfit(takeProfits);
    Print("Take profit ladder set: {0}", result.IsSuccessful);
}
```

Python:

```python
position = api.Positions.Find("myLabel")
if position is not None:
    halfVolume = position.Symbol.NormalizeVolumeInUnits(position.VolumeInUnits / 2, RoundingMode.Down)
    takeProfits = RelativeTakeProfitProtections(RelativeTakeProfitProtection(halfVolume, 20), RelativeTakeProfitLastProtection(40))
    result = position.ModifyTakeProfit(takeProfits)
