{quote} Thanks for t quick response. It's interesting to me that something so simple as looking at the clock and at xx:xx:xx and plotting a line at the bid and ask price quoted in that moment could not be programmed. It seems that jeanlouie's candle speed meter may be looking at the system clock to determine time. If mt4 can see the PC's clock I'm surprised it can't do what I am doing......just setting an alarm and checking what the price is at that time and plotting lines. Thanks for your insight. I like ovo as well
- this cannot be done on MT4 standard timeframe because the horizontal line is attached to an events in time by means of an object of time - a candle.
- while it may appear just a matter of attaching a line or alert at a time of seconds past the candle open minute - on an MT4 standard timeframe the MQL4 code does no accommodate the ability
- there would also be no means of checking accuracy of the time the line was drawn - further indication it not possible
- jeanloiue's candle speed meter is purely counting - its no attaching anything at a specific count.
- when it comes to implementing the drawing of the line - that would be done with code that cannot directly respond to the exact time count but only to candle OHLC.
- The OHLC are price levels represented in vertical delineation at candle time open.
However, always wise to entertain the benefit of the doubt - have been wrong sufficient times
Suggest ask jeanloiue's or other coder's assessments directly.
An interesting concept, nonetheless !
edit: jeanloiue's below proves above partially incorrect - however, when timeframe or terminal closed and opened all repaint to above conditions - see animation end - nevertheless credit to jeanloiue
animation - jeanloiue's indicator at a slower pace -

Hi coders, Is it possible to plot a hline at the price during a specific time (preferably to the seconds), say 00:50:30 GMT? Thanks
Periodic_Lines_ScALpipTaToE
- for an input time hr00:min00:sec00, plots vlines, hline(current price) and daily hlines
- for past times, the input time is rounded to the chart tf
- for future times, the seconds value is used, on the xhr and ymin, the first tick after z sec will create objects, see gif

Thank you J. Testing & will surely be back.
@jeanlouie,
Candle Speed Meter,
Normal charts plot the lines well after the calculation of (period+1) candles.
Offline live charts plot horizontal lines as shown and the don't get updated no matter how many candles get calculated.
Offline back tests plot properly in both cases...just not live for offline.

Hi everyone,
New kid on the block would really like your help your help on coding an EA.
I'm looking for an EA that would:
1) Have buttons to open an order on spot price and automatically set a Stop Limit of your choice
2) Have buttons to open a stop order at a specific level from the current price with an automated Stop Loss (for example, if you click the button at 1,400 for gold and you set a stop order level of 10 pips a stop order will be executed for 1,401 with an Automated Stop Loss of 30 pips for example or a certain price of your choice)
3) I think it is the most important point in my opinion is a script that will allow all the Stop Loss to move at breakeven/profit after the price moves a certain level (an example would be: If we enter a buy at 1,400 for gold with an automated SL of 30 pips down at 1,307. We set a target level of 40 pips and a breakeven level of 10 (when the price moves to 1,404 (40 pips) it would automatically move the Stop Limit to 10 pips in front of our entry, in this case we will have it at 1,401
Extra challenge: would be nice to have but not as important
4) A Button that would automatically set all Trades to a breakeven level of your choice
5) A function that will allow us to 'turn on' the system, For example: When we have it on. It will automatically do function 2 (once), it won't take any order until we hit the breakeven level or the stop loss level. (Once it hits the breakeven level for example it automatically do function 2 and place another order, essentially compounding are positions while minimizing risks.)

I know this is quite the challenge and might be alot to take in but I would really appreciate this and I promise to give back what I can and if you want you'd have a friend for life
