Code for Graphic on Charts

If I understand your request, you want to find the price of an arrow indicator and place an order. Presumably if there are multiple arrow indicators you would want the last one.

This code should do it:

datetime latest = 0;
double price = 0;
for(int ix=0;ix<ObjectsTotal(OBJ_ARROW);ix++)
{
datetime objTime = ObjectGet(ObjectName(ix), OBJPROP_TIME1);
if (objTime > latest)
{
latest = objTime;
price = ObjectGet(ObjectName(ix), OBJPROP_PRICE1);
}
}

// add logic to place an order here

If there is a single arrow indicator, the code could be reduced...

// put after start
// this first piece of code, will create a text object named trail
// if the object is moved, it will toggle trail, on/off

//does the object exist? if not, create it

ObjectSet("trail", OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, 50);
