Blubbb's free indicator and expert advisor thread

To be able to close them I would need to write an EA that waits for break even. If I remember correctly I already wrote one... that was quite some time ago. I'll search my hard drive.
But you have to keep in mind that this would be no "real" SL or substitute for one: If your internet connection dies, the power fails or you shut down the system, the EA of course couldn't do anything.

Edit: Sorry, I wrote nonsense. What I meant was a solution for all the open trades at once. I didn't read you wanted it for one pair only. Then it would be possible with a script, of course. The script would calculate the "resultant" of all the trades and set the SL accordingly. It's not yet implemented in the version I posted.

it would be an interesting addition to your SL to handle multiple trades.

If not a SL EA, probably just an indicator to have it visually so you make a decision to act accordingly.

I've tried ECN false and true, and no orders appear.

I have no errors in those tabs either... well, when it tries to fill them, I can see the inputs, then in the next line "unit reason 0" and the next one "removed".

All settings are default, jut moved ECN. Any clue?

Well, a limit or stop order should appear...
If it doesn't, then there's an error somewhere. Does the "Experts" or "Journal" tab show any messages that could help?

I know there are some brokers where you cannot place an order and at the same time set a SL or TP. The order has to be placed first, then modified. The script has a variable called "ECN". Setting this to "true" accomplishes this.

In the MT4 options somewhere there is a checkbox where you have to allow live trading for EAs. I think this includes scripts as well.

Hey Blubbb, did you have a periodshift indi or something like this as I can't seem to find it now? I thought I saw something like this somewhere around Thanking you kindly

Many use the CustomCandle indi for this. It's a candle overlay indi.

I implemented handling multiple orders in the Breakeven script :

Thanks blubbb, I believe I've got a handle on this now. We'll see Sun. evening. Thanks again.

As requested I updated the CustomCandle indi with the option to draw only the outlines of the custom candles. See page 1. Just set "CandleFilled" to "false".

blubbb, scroll down to the bottom of this page. Are these two scripts worth anything? I couldn't figure out how to change the SL and PT inputs. The inputs are set to SL 50 and TP 100. I'm not sure if this 50/100 is the actual value or is a zero dropped. Thanks,
