{quote} Thank you. You can set visibility of every element on different time frames. Regarding its recognition - line from W1 chart, from H1 chart, etc. - we can think on it. It is really great idea, and we believe it can be implemented, if there is a need. Only you, traders, can make our Platform better. We appreciate all feedbacks, that we receive from you. Hope, that after launching demo - we will implement more and more features with your help.
Hi Mozy Defo a need mate. Sure it would not be just me. I do it manually now and it is a complete pain in the arse but I have to do it coz it is how I earn my bread and butter. I have been on at a number of brokers to get them to incorporate into the platforms but nothing as yet. Real advantage to zoom in and see on a 1min chart for example that I have a former Monthly/weekly OHLC identified clearly and not just a line on the chart. Makes it much easier to separate the relevance.
I can give you a link to how I do it manually to give you better idea if you like ?


Cheers

Hi Mozy

At present I place the relevant YearlyMonthly /Weekly OHLC on my chart manually and have them colour coded. Red yearly, yellow monthly blue weekly. On tradestation there is a feature to have the label which discloses description of the line when you hover over it. Like in the examples shown.

So I could hover over a Red line and it might say 2014 Low. Yellow Line might say Nov 2014 High, Blue might say Week 36 2015 Open...... etc.

Would be good to have a feature along the toolbar that you can click on which gives you the option to show Any YEARLY/MONTHLY/WEEKLY OHLC within say 50 pips of current price maybe and identify them. This would be great feature.

Alerts for trading:

Is powerful feature, that helps traders. You can Set Value Alert or Series Alert for a trading activity on the market.

For example, we set Alert, that EURUSD high price will cross 1.13900 level (right-click on chart - Alerts - Value Alert):

A one-cancels-the-other order (OCO) combines a stop order with a limit order on an automated trading platform. When either the stop or limit level is reached and the order executed, the other order will be automatically canceled.

We have already mentioned tradeable Alerts, and showed example with price level. However, there is another feature - Series Alert, that helps to set additional terms for a Alert. In our example, we set next parameters: as the price for EURGBP drop below SMA 10, than place pending limit order at price 0.73000

You can easily manage multiple accounts via single interface. Trader's accounts are shown in Accounts panel.
This feature is very useful for Money Managers who can easily place orders across clients accounts keeping focus on trading.

I donīt mean multiple Accounts (yes it is good for money managerīs but better is to trade on one virtual account and splitting in the backoffice to the subs so you trade one Block 1 Lot and not 10 x 0.1 lot....faster execution)

I mean you have an ea this ea is trading example: eurusd, gbpusd, audusd etc.
Then you can calculate the Tp and SL on each Pair or on the total Basket. so if Profit +300 close all.
The Problem is you canīt backtest a Basket Strategy in MT4 (for me a big fail).
This i mean with multiple currency Strategies.

No doubt that this feature will be powerful, and a lot of traders will use it. But, it is not easy to implement.

However we will keep it in mind,thank you for your thoughts.
