Trading scripts with pictures - script para MetaTrader 4

Description:

I like to keep a record of my trades so that I can look back and see where I might make improvements in my trading decisions. To make that easier I created a script that would take a snapshot of the chart, give it a unique name and file it for me. Later it occurred to me that I could just add this feature to the trading execution scripts I was already using and thus save myself a step. I use them with a HotKey setup.

I thought someone might find the scripts or the actions they perform useful so I am making them available to all.

There are 5 scripts that execute trades, "Buy Market", "Sell Market", "Buy Market with user check", "Sell Market with user check" and "Close Orders".

Also the is original that just executes the picture of a chart called "Snapshot".

Ironically there are no pictures of how they work, but there are comment instructions in the top of each script that should suffice and the titles are fairly self-explanatory:

• Buy Market - when dragged onto the chart it executes a buy at market and takes a picture of the chart at the time the trade is executed, names it and files it in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\files. Trade values are modified in MetaEditor.
  
• Sell Market - when dragged onto the chart it executes a sell at market and takes a picture of the chart at the time the trade is executed, names it and files it in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\files. Trade values are modified in MetaEditor.
• Buy Market with user check - pauses when dragged onto the chart to allow you to set the parameters before it executes a buy at market and takes a picture of the chart at the time the trade is executed, names it and files it in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\files.
• Sell Market with user check - pauses when dragged onto the chart to allow you to set the parameters before it executes a sell at market and takes a picture of the chart at the time the trade is executed, names it and files it in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\files
• Close Orders - when dragged onto the chart it closes all orders on the chart and takes a picture of the chart at the time the trade is executed, names it and files it in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\files.
• Snapshot - when dragged onto the chart it takes a picture of the chart at that time, names it and files it in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\files.

Remembering the old adage "you get what you pay for", I suggest you check these out for yourself thoroughly (as you should with all code from this site) to see if they will work for you.
