MT4's new buy/sell button - here's a better script

MT4's new button looks pretty, but the scripts attached are much better IMO as they place TP & SL with each order and you only have to double-click the script. I've also attached a script so you can modify the SL and TP by simply dragging the lines.

Scripts aren't attached to charts and are designed to only execute once, so if you want to change the values, you'll have to right click -> modify and change the SL, TP and slippage in code then press compile.

How to use

 

  1. Place scripts in experts/scripts folder
  2. Activate chart you want to place a market order and double click the buy/sell script you want to use

OrderModify

The OrderModify script is in Russian, but it works great.

To modify an order SL or TP, drag the OrderModify script by holding down the left mouse button and release when mouse is over your green entry line (the radius of discovery is set @ 100 pipettes), you should then see green and red horizontal lines. Double click a line, drag it to a new price and click okay.

Picture below shows that i've moved the stop loss (red line) below the order SL.

There are many Scripts for changing the place of T/P and S/L in English which has been shared in this site and they are perfect
I think if you search you can find so many better than even those has been shared before

I created the thread as a knee-jerk reaction to the new MT4 button.

Perhaps there are better scripts but can you expand the brevity of your post with links?

It does irk me when people post 'use the search'; i'm just trying to help others who may not be aware of such scripts.

Thanks kamifx, that would be much appreciated - it's only useful now because of the latest MT4 build, so may as well strike while the iron is hot.

Thanks kamifx.

Had a quick mooch, i'd prefer the scripts i posted as it's simple to click them to buy/sell and it's a few lines of code.

Hmm, my MT4 (build 451) doesn't have buttons like that.

I'm sad.

Build 482 has the buttons. Not all brokers update the same time.
On Pepperstone I had build 451 for a long time when others reported they had newer versions on other brokers,
but now with version 482 I have the buttons too.
