Well I wonder that no one have such an EA
really???
Well, I have a custom EA which almost has all features, but I paid $300 to a professional coder for it and I modified it and that took me hundreds of hours, so I will not share it.

The point is: a professional coder will have absolutely no problems to code the desired EA, but of course not for free.

(SL-and TP-lines appear directly in the Chart when loading!!!)
They already do with the latest version of EasyOrder don't they?

Looks like a misunderstanding to me.
When I submit a buy-stop order for example, there are the price-line in yellow, the new TP-line in blue and the new SL-line in Red.

After the order is placed, I can double-click on each of these lines and drag and drop them and EasyOrder will send the necessary order-send commands
to the broker.

Only thing missing is the distance in Pips and the ticket-number.
That can be done with the indicator.

Carrinm,
I had an idea and here is an easier way for you to fill the trade comment.

When you click on Submit, the input properties of the script appear.
Default comment is "Other strategy".
If you choose one of your 6 manual strategies, just set it to "true"
and submit.

The Global Variable is not needed anymore and you cannot forget to set the strategy number there.
Thanks for this idea. It fits better with the way I trade. I have not had a chance to test it out when the market is open but will do really soon. For other peple wanting to use it, it is possbile to have more than one Trade Strategy variable set to true - not sure what the code will do then - I will test it out to see.

Thanks again and thanks too to sangmane for a great script

It will give you the last trade comment in the row.

Inserted Code
//---- fill TradeComment
   if(PowerPivot) TradeComment = _mystrat_1;
   if(Sniper)     TradeComment = _mystrat_2;
   if(Pivot)      TradeComment = _mystrat_3;
   if(Snapback)   TradeComment = _mystrat_4;
   if(IG)         TradeComment = _mystrat_5;
   if(UIG)        TradeComment = _mystrat_6;
It will check the conditions one after another.

Example: You set Sniper = true and Snapback = true and IG = true.
Actually this makes no sense but let us see what will happen:

default for TradeComment = "Other Strategy"
Check 1: PowerPivot = false ----> nothing is done
Check 2: Sniper = true ----> TradeComment is filled with "Sniper"
Check 3: Pivot = false ----> nothing is done
Check 4: Snapback = true -----> Trade Comment is filled with "Snapback"
Check 5: IG = true -----> TradeComment is filled with "IG"
Check 6: UIG = false ------> nothing is done

So you will get the TradeComment = "IG" .

Setting more than one strategy to "true" does not make sense.

@Phylo,
thank you very much for the indicator link

Hi file45,

Thank a lot for your good work here.

In post 246 you write ''In the lower window an indicator references from right to left, Symbol, Lots, pip Profit or Loss, Ģ Profit or Loss.''

Would be great if you could post that indicator here too since it looks very handy!

Thanks again!!

hello,
many believe EA don't work in renko no timeframe offline charts.
my question is if EA don't work in renko charts then You could have a script attached to the renko chart that writes signals to a file. the EA, attached to an online chart, would read those signals from the file and act accordingly....
is it possible ?
please reply
thank you

This is not a matter of "belief".
Either an EA works on a Renko-chart .... or not.

I experimented with Renko-indicators, Renko-EAs and Renko-scripts.
All of them produced an offline-chart, but on some offline-charts my EAs
did not work, on others it did.

I have no idea why this is the case, must be the way they are coded.

Instead of looking for indicators which write signals into a file which are then acted upon by an EA attached to a online chart, it would be better
to search for those Renko-EAs, scripts or indicators which let your EA
work properly on the offline-chart.

Please donīt ask me which one is doing what. I have them spread on my harddrive and donīt use them. They are posted in this forum and everywhere in the internet, just google and download them.
Then it is a matter of testing them.

the ea don't work on the renko offline charts i trade.
btw i have my own entry exit rules so i tried to find someone who could help me in making my ea. after no support i thought i have to do it myself.
before i start my course i was just seeking some advice from pro's whether its possible or not otherwise there is no point in learning codes.

this renko system i trade.
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=322817

my requirements:
EA for renko candles only:
Entry rules: full length bullish or bearish candle.
Exit rules: doji formed or the reverse candle occurs.
note: include lot size, TP, SL and trailing stop.

Thankyou

Thank you for sharing this great tool.

Is there anyway to set the lot sizes directly instead of a risk based lot sizing?

I read threw the thread, and i did not find any info for this.

Just wanted to say thanks for the great script. Have been using for some time now, and its awesome. Have a question regarding right clicking on the script box. I have several instances of mt4 running and on a couple of them, when I right click to either remove or change risk or lots, no menu will appear. everything else works fine, just cannot make any changes, or remove without closing chart. wonder if anyone out there has run into this or has any suggestions for me to try. any responses appreciated.
