Take a trade EA
-
Hello,
Can anyone show me how I could create an EA that would take a trade when attached to the chart.
No specific conditions to be met, just a buy trade and sell trade. I know how I would set up the buy and sell blocks with stop loss and %of balance account.I'd just like the option that if I see a trade I can just attach the ea and it will do all the calculations for entry for me and enter either a long or short.
Thanks in advance

@marcussmale Not sure what you are asking, no position/trade block>your required conditions>buy/sell block, your magic number will decide what trades EA places/controls.

@jstap hi I just want something that I can use to take a trade. I will manually look and if I see one, I want the ea to do all the maths, such as work out sl from atr value, 0.20% of account balance.
Just want to be able to save time not having to work this out. -
@marcussmale The principle is simple, as I put in my last post you have the general setup, create this test on back test, any problems put a shared link here so reasons can be assessed, if conditions are on tick then as soon as EA is added to chart trade will activate on next tick.
