I found some scripts, in case you're interested.

Thanks Stockwet. How would one execute them? Just select "Execute on Chart" and voila?

Nice scripts Stockwet

i am also looking for a plugin for MT4. I am looking for a way to project exactly where the next 8 price bars are going to sit. I have tried various ideas but none seem to work, i personally think that this may be due to an inherant flaw in its program.

Any ideas

I had this the other day on a fresh install of MetaTrader. I think what you need to do is to go to Tools > Options > Expert Advisors and enable the "Allow live trading" checkbox. Try that and see if it works now.

I have been looking for something similar to what you posted. I tried it, and it worked fine. My thing is, I wanted to know if you know how to close all when the total of all trades reach a certain point. I am using it as a get out strategy, rather than a take profit strategy. My get out strategy is 5 to 10% of the Acct. Even 0 point would be fine. If you have anything that can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

This EA will allow you to set all of your orders to close at a predefined dollar amount (profit or loss).

You sure you opened the right ea? I don't have those on mine. I have a tab called "Input" with the default profit set at "30". You double-click it to set whatever whole-dollar figure you want it to close at.

I forgot to ask one thing. The system I am currently running consist of 2 initial orders staying open, whille profit is being made with get in, and take small profit PENDING ORDERS. All this continues until a retracement with a 10% loss is reached. Will this still work? I may have up to 6 pending orders opened at one time.

Also, do I need to keep my computer running after I place the EA in order for it to work?
