I am experimenting a script which I have assigned to a hotkey.

I want the script to execute immediately after the keystroke, without asking for confirmation (that parameters screen).
Is there a tweak or code snippet to avoid that screen?

Yes, remove any variables which start with "extern"

Ronald Thanks,
but I am not a programmer myself, what exactly should I remove, where.

Can you look at this code, it's an enter trade task that I'm trying to automate:

Ronald,
those are very good scripts with mm, is there a way you could preset/encode tp and sl?
