So if I understand it correctly points 1 anbd 2 are correct. Are the SL and TP values to be modified as the ATR value evolves in time?

Nice project, has lots of interesting variables.

"No horizontal line drawn on the chart [counts] as a buy or sell order."

Based on the project title, I'm assuming you will manually add a horizontal line on your chart. This line will be called "buy"
If correct, you will have huge problems.

First, on EVERY TICK, every time the ASK is above the line, it will endlessly create pending orders in a grid. You need to fix that by putting a filter. "Once a day" "Once every bar" "Counter: Pass Once"
Same for SELLS

As for "no horizontal line drawn" counts as a buy or sell order. You don't seem to have any condition blocks that match your description.

Your EA will ONLY work once a line named "buy" is placed on the chart.

On your "on chart" it looks like you're trying to delete the line. Not sure if it will work, simply use the "delete object" block and put in the Name/Prefix section "buy"

Quick Tip. When working with multiple rules, try to make it easier for you to understand by creating areas. See attached. I circled the line and Delete object blocks because I think that's what you're trying to achieve. 0_1582742420147_fxDreema.PNG

@sirboyce without a project link I can only assume you messed up something lol 😄

its probably not in the right folder. Replicate the indicator so it is in each kind of indi folder.

market, downloads, the main indicator folder, and examples...I think. If I remember right, its 4. Thats why I do to avoid problems.

@crazycnw Those are just moving averages (of the price) displayed in a "wrong" window.

@crazycnw said in is it possible to implement this into my EA:

You need to think more of what information you want from that sentiment tool. Do you only care if their view is "bearish" or "bullish"

If so, you don't need an EA. Sentiment trading is based on longer time frame trading and IG client sentiment updates once a day. To help your trading, simply put an alarm for the time that the report is out and trade with IG sentiment. If you want something more automated, Chrome has tools that scan your webpage. Mix this with an auto refresher and you once the webpage changes certain words, you will get notified. With this email, you might be able to do something that can be implemented into an EA.

Are objects defined in blocks 95 and 101 manually inserted horizontal lines? Additionally, blocks 111 and 112 ara partially overlapping each other. Both of them are programmed to deal with manual trades. You'd better avoid that by selecting manually only and automatic anly options.

Where are you getting your IG Client Sentiment data from? The expert adviser or the website?

You will have to create an a trigger, then your ea can pick up this trigger. I haven't played with IG Client Sentiment but I don't think it creates objects or leaves any data on the chart.

If it does, you will need two charts open per pair. One EA can create a pending order, be it buy or sell based on your parameters.

The second chart will use this pending order trade to execute what ever trade you want. Open in a grid, pending order, etc.

Update: Actually, if the IG client has readable data, you can skip the extra chart and use that as your trigger for your orders. I was over complicating it.
