Anyway to get a plugin for point and figure charts. Or something to that effect. I am a newbie here, so it may take a while to figure this out.

Downloaded the VSA indicator signals plugin, and I believe some indicators are incorrect. Like no demand . It shows a no demand as a bearish signal with high volume. I believe this is wrong, a no demand is a bullish candle with lower volume than the previous 2 candles. It also shows a buying climax

Hi, Im a little bit confused with the ticket number for the order remaining, i have been doing tests and the order closed partially is the one with the ticket number already assigned with the beginning lots so whats the number for the lots left?
