Help! How to add arrows when entering or exiting a trade onto the chart?

 

Hi,

I'm new to Forex Trading and still learning. I'm very excited with this.

Can someone help me with How to add arrows when entering or exiting a trade onto the chart?

Many thanks!!!

The last parameter of the OrderSend() is the arrow colour.

A simple search of the documentation would tell you that.

I guess the arrows only work when the order is automatically executed. They don't appear if you were to trade manually.

You can always add them manually as well. They are called objects on the chart window. You could also make a script that will add them automatically based on currently open orders. That would simply require you to run the script on the chart after you entered your trades.

After the trade is closed, drag the trade from the Account history to the chart.

 
Hi Guys, I'm new to forex trading. Can someone help me out with trading tips. I seem to run into more losses than profits. Which indicators are best to use? When is the best time to trade which currencies? How can I counter a trade that is going against me? Can I trade with a robot?
 

123007, this is a programming forum. And the simple answer to your question is that there is no answer. You have to get your hands dirty and find what works for you. And you *will* run into more losses than gains for a while still.
