{quote} Successful traders really don't depend upon robots to think and trade for them. EAs that plan to think and trade are good for video games. I have hardly found any auto trading profitable EA so far. Semi-Auto EA is very effective. Auto EA is needed for executing trades. Discretion should be used for bias determination, planning and mapping out lots and positions, and managing the drawdown after the trades are executed. It will be quite useful (what you are attempting to achieve) is to have a script to place combination of pending orders,...
The future is not fully automatic but semi automatic where human and robot coexists and support one another.
Bright future for traders.
Fully automatic EA can't survive because the human including the institutional themselves hardly survive the market.

Any way with that said here is the latest version

1. Minimize and Expand the Info texts and calendar
2. FF Economic Calendar feature
3. NAME_grid style_B/S_PIPS_HH:MM

new horizontal code
i.e.
grid style = your grid tyle
B/ = B(buy), S(sell)
PIPS = A new trade will be opened XXX Pips after the lline got crossed
HH:MM= At that particular time the pending order is active and will opened the grid once it has reached the PIPS target.

For instance a horizontal price is placed at 0.8000
NAME_111_B_20_19:30
The grid that will be open is 111.
It will open a buy grid.
When the price crosses the horizontal at 19:30 it will place an order 20 pips when it crosses the Horizontal line.
Let say the market crossed to the upside that mean it will begin open the grid at 20PIPS + 0.8000 = 0.8020
If it crosses below then 0.8000-20 pips = 0.7980

{quote} About this I will make a code to a HORIZONTAL LINE NAME_grid style_B/S_PIPS_YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM_YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM Grid style = 111 or any other combination B/s = buy or sell PIPS = triggered after X pips over the line YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM = will be online after that particular time YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM = expiration

correct

FYI

Let say the price crossed to the upside before 19:30
Then at 20:10, the price crosses below the Horizontal line.
It will place a grid order 20 pips - Horizontal line price.

Yousername,

Can you please explain how to place straddle trade grid combination at 22.29:30 for the buy grid to open 4 step grid each of 10 pips with a profit limit of 60 pips and SL 15 pips after it crosses horizontal line up 20 pips.

If price goes down at 22:29:30 and it crosses horizontal line down by 30 pips then set up 3 step sell grid each of 15 pips with a profit limit of 60 pips and SL 10 pips.

Both pending order type should be OCO ("one cancels another).

Both are using local time because that way is more convenience.

Thanks for the question mate. Forgot to explain that.

Thanks mate for letting me know it.

Was busy with other things.

Here's the fixed version.
Also I updated the NEWS part. News that already passed will be colored blue.

_11X_S_0_23:33 / _111_S_5_23:33 TRY THIS 2 command but once touch line disappear and no grid open (maybe it’s due to the time possible will be effective if use server time as to program ea to follow local time? not sure just my opinion on the fault)

You can use the horizontal line for straddle.

Regarding the OCO is not available yet. I can code it just add additional flag i.e.

NAME_111_B_10_19:15_OCO <--- you place it at 0.8060

NAME_111_S_10_19:15_OCO <--- you place it at 0.8020

When one of them is triggered the other horizontal line with OCO will be deleted.

Isn't that what you want?

Here is the logic to the new line code.

You placed a code to the H line as the following
HORIZONTAL_111_B_5_10:00

1. Market crossed to the upside at >=10:00
2. FG Deletes the H line
3. Make a new H line +5 pips of the Horizontal line price with a new code such as "HORIZONTAL_111_B"
4. Set it invisible
5. Market executes HORIZONTAL_111_B accordingly when it crosses it.

First of all, thank you for this interesting post
. I only had a question, could you possibly make an option with buy & sell at the same time?
thank you in advance.
