Looking for a profit indicator

  • #1

I've been searching extensively for an indicator that will show the following information (much to no avail):

Current position (buy/sell price).
number of lots
Pips accrued
Profit (loss).

Like so:

There's one that comes with the MT4 package. It's called iExposure. It doesn't show the pip change in your position, though. If you don't like the default indicator, you might want to check TSD - they've got loads of on-screen indicators.

Is it simply TSD on mql4 database? Couldn't find it. Thanks.

TSD is short for Forex-TSD (a well-known forex forum with an emphasis on indicators and software in general). The thread I'm referring to is this one: On screen displays

If you happen to find what you are looking for it would be great if you could add a screenshot and the indicator (or a link to it @TSD) for the sake of other members who might stumble upon this thread looking for the same indicator that you are.
If you don't risk, you don't ever have to lose.

lol I forgot about that, sorry I am more used to black backgrounds haha.

I have edited the pip display precision value to 1, so that it will reflect the values more accurately for you. For example, instead of seeing 4 pips on your chart, you will see 4.2 pips or 4.5 pips.

The calculation for the Buy or Sell Orders' profit value is Order Profit + Order Commission + Order Swap.

Let me know if there are any more bugs.

Hi tigpips,
thanks for that indicator. But in my case the pips are not displayed correctly. Instead of 52 pips it says 5.2 pips.
Could you make another version available please or tell me where to make the change in the code?
Cheers
