Smart Trendlines
18 Mar 2018, 14:55


I would love to see Smart Trendlines implemented (MT4 supports them via a plugin) whereby you can draw a trendline and when price crosses the line it can sell a % of your position - essentially a dynamic Stop Loss or Take Profit.

I was actually trying to see if I could code this myself as a cBot but there is no way for the cBot to interogate a Chart for any user drawn trend lines so it can implement the dynamic stoploss/take profit.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for posting in our forum and for your suggestions as well! I would like to inform you that we are currently working on a new chart API that will allow you to easily implement this functionality in the future.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

RE:

Hi Panagiotis,

Thanks for the quick response :)

Can you give me an indication as to when the new Chart API will be available ? That is very exciting :)

Cheers

Hi Steve,

Unfortunately I cannot give you an ETA. Our developers are already working on it, so I would expect it in the next couple of releases, without this being final.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
