Hi!
I'm considering building an EA to assist me with entries for the strategy I'm trading right now.
The only two aspects that are beyond me are the UI... how to create a draggable line on my chart that will set my SL & breakout levels, and how to create an on-chart interface with buttons for BE and possibly fields to enter risk values into.
Basically a very simplified version of an on-chart risk calculator with a simple entry trigger.
I don't even know what the proper terms for these types of functionality are, so any pointers that can help me research this a bit more (including open-source EAs I can examine to learn from) would be much appreciated!
