Hello Code minds!
Here we go;
Someone check the attached image and help me code this script.
__
Simple explanationFOR A LONG;
After a swing low, and as an uptrend is resuming, i open a long position.
The script should automatically set an SL (Stop Loss) of 'x'pips below the swing low (in this case, 'x' pips below the previous red candle), while risking 'n%' of my account balance.
The script should at the same time set the TP (Take Profit) to 'm' times the risk. In this case risk is the number of pips in between the entry price and the stop loss price.
___
Invert the explanation in forex terms_FOR A SHORT POSITION;
___
This is going to help me execute my strategy faster and easier.
It's a complete strategy that i intend to create an EA for step by step when cleaning is finished, and continued profitability is maintained.
___
Someone help me do this.

{quote} cyber1 Thanx for the help, it works now. I see you changed the following from int counted_bars=IndicatorCounted(); int limit =Bars-counted_bars-1; for(int i = 0;i<limit;i++){ to the new int counted_bars=0; if(counted_bars>0) counted_bars--; int limit=Bars-counted_bars-1; Comment(limit); for(int i = 0;i<limit;i++){ The only thing I'm really clear about is the Comment and the "for" to increment, but the rest ..... What I understand is you define counted_bars to 0, but why not IndicatorCounted()? In the next line do you use "counted_bars--"...

Would you mind explaining this to me as this section in code is a part I'm not to clued up about, (well most of the stuff as I'm still learning), or if you can give me some keywords to search for, cause I'm not sure where to look for it. I've also just used what is in the templates. I have a few indies I need to call but some start with int=0 and others int=1, is not just gonna be better to make all start with 1, at least then you know it's not repainting also?
In this case the only difference is i=1 will not plot the current open candle. To see this put both indicators on the chart and set one to 35 period.

just hoping for a quick adjust... Im using this strength meter and as you can see in the pic -- the two boxers are overlapping a bit and the box on the right isnt big enough to show the readings... I looked in the mgl file but -- ummmmmm 
... So was hoping someone in here could help out.. thanks in advance..

I need a pop-up alert message for this indicator when Green or Red Arrow is fired on close of bar.
Currency pair, timeframe, alert time & alert sound.
Many thanks.
