Specification
NY gold trading open at 1800 NY time and closes at 1700 NY time sun thru friday All positions should be closed by 16;45 every trading day
From the MQL5 trading platform, when I select the autotrader button a panel should open up on the left side of the screen. panel should be a single column and have the following info:
status on off | |
symbol GC | |
ENTRY LEVEL | |
up/down ______ update | |
contracts _______ update | |
stop loss 3 pips update | |
trailing stop ______ update | |
go to manual trading | |
resume auto trading |
NOTE the columns that have update buttons should all have drop down boxes that allow me to change the values, for example CONTRACTS means number to trade and should have a drop down box that allows between 1 and 10 STOP LOSS should have a drop down box from 1-10 pips and TRAILING STOP should have a drop down box from 3 to 15 pips. and the up/down box should have a drop down box from 10-25 pips
-NOTE large advances or declines seldom are straight line so if I am holding a contract and a trailing stop is executed I NEED AUTOTRADER TO NOTE THE HIGH BEFORE THE STOP LOSS WAS EXECUTED AND IF THE MARKET THEN RESUMES ITS PREVIOUS DIRECTION IT SHOULD BUY OR SELL AGAIN IMMEDIATELY WHEN THAT HIGH OR LOW IS AGAIN REACHED.
all buys or sell should be made with a 3 pip stop loss and changed to a trailing stop if the market goes in the right direction
IMPORTANT: the up/down button refers to the entry level when autotrader should buy or sell it should look for movements in one direction in a ---40 minute period that move the number of pips shown in the box
Finally, if anyone is interested in making this autotrader DO NOT JUST SEND ME A NOTE SAYING YOU ARE INTERESTED. I would like you to describe to me in your own words what you think I want the program to do. If you can describe it as I would like it then we can talk further.
NOTE this is a resubmission of a previous request for a programmer I don't know why but selected programmer disappeared after many delays
I have attached a screenshot to try to clarify my requirements:
there is a vertical line coming down from the forex word, this line is showing gold price at 6:30. at 6:00 the gold price was 16 pips higher so aurtotrader should have sold when it reached the 15pip (inthis case) level. there is a brief but very small rise and then the price of gold drops dramatically. THIS IS WHAT I WANT THE AUTOTRADER TO DO. Watch for breakout either up or down and then join in AFTER the move starts. in this case gold dropped , reached a bottom where autotrader with a trailing stop would have bought to protect my position and then the price of gold continued to rise. Aurtotrader would have then bought gold when the 15 pip (or whatever pip signal I had programmed in) is reached and with a trailing stop (always) followed the price up until the next trailing stop is triggered. There was a fall of more than 20 pips but then a retracement and gold price again continued up (all within a 40 minute time frame) so autotrader would have noted the previous high before the trailing stop was triggered and then BOUGHT AGAIN IMMEDIATELY WHEN THAT HIGH WAS REACHED AGAIN.
i hope this clarifies what I am looking for
