Hi,

Does anyone know of an EA that would take a screen capture at the open and closing of a trade?

Thanks,

Andrew

My EA can do either.
20 pips a day isn't too much to ask . . .

Here is a simple script that might fulfill your needs. It takes a screen shot when the total nr of orders changes.
It will not take a screen show when stop and limit orders trigger.

It is Untested! The markets are currently closed.

You can do something like this to determine if an order has just closed and therefore to grab the chart . . .

Inserted Code
// print chart when trade has closed . . .
   
   if (Chart_Grabs) for(int OrderPosition = OrdersHistoryTotal()-1; OrderPosition >= 0 ; OrderPosition--) 
      if ( OrderSelect(OrderPosition, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY) &&  OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNo ) 
         {
         if (OrderTicket() > LastTradeNoGrab) 
            {LastTradeNoGrab = OrderTicket(); 
            ChartGrab();
            }
         }
