Seems indeed that it works with a string, didn't expect that, thanks!

I like the experimental feature of the multi level trailing stop. The only thing is I am not able to get the values work with Constants. I want to define the value in the Constants, I guess it is because the values are defined as fe 10/1,20/10.....

Is there a way to use constants with these multi levels?

I am using an button object to place orders. when I press the button it stays pressed, is there a way to get the button back to its original state(unpressed) immediately after pressing?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you, it is working now. Learned a lot

Thank you very much, after some experimenting I managed to get into the right direction.
-I created a rectangle from which xy are stored in variables;
-Button 1 looks at these stored xy variables and uses them to reposition when rectangle is moved;

The problem I am facing now is as following:

• Button 1 gets it's coordinates from the xy variables, the other buttons should look at the same x-variable (which is no problem), but the y variable is different for each button.
• So Buttons 2-6 should look at variable_y - value

Is there a block that I can use for this, and if so which one?

Thanks!

__you can try make one object like reference object (your rectangle) and others block x y calculated from this rectangle - after rectangle is moved - store into variables its position, and x y for buttons is calculated from this position ...[/quote:1dplpdqs]

Thank you for your help. I understand your suggesting but I have no idea how to store position xy into variables as I am quite new at this. Do you maybe have an example to help get me going?

I have made a trade management tool that consists out of 6 separate buttons in MT4 (See attachment Buttons). Now they are being displayed on a fixed area in MT4. I would like to be able to move the Trade management tool around without selecting the 6 separate buttons. Is there a way to make something like an object container that contains all 6 buttons, so I can drag this container around in MT4?

Thank you in advance.

Thank you! This seems to be the solution

I am trying to work with different stop levels. I tried different things for hours but it still is not working correctly.

This is what I want to accomplish:

• I placed a buy/sell order with a script, which has a SL of 8 pips away from entry( this is working correctly)
• I made an Expert Advisor for modifying the different stop levels when an order is active:

1st SL adjustment: when profit is +2 pips the SL level needs to move 5 pips up from the original position (this is working correctly)
2st SL adjustment: when profit is +4 pips the SL level needs to move another 4 pips up from the original position (this is not working correctly)

The 1st SL adjustment is working, but the 2nd SL adjustment always brings the SL level to Entry level, which it should not do as I specified where it should move to.
I also tried Shrink Stops and Break Even, but I got the same results.

This is what I have so far: https://fxdreema.com/shared/ewNoDot4e

Can you please help me with this?
