Herman,

 

The constant price is the issue, I want to move the horizontal lines into position and adjust and maybe 2 minutes later I will

adjust them again because of price action. Again I want to be able to do all adjustments directly from the chart by dragging

the horizontal lines. I don’t want to right click, go to parameters and make the adjustment. Also if I move the horizontal line

from 680.00 to 682.50 that changing value is kept in a variable to be used for sending the orders.

 

I will use your button code to create 2 buttons LONG and SHORT when I click on either the LONG or SHORT button

Let’s say LONG, then 2 more buttons will appear TRANSMIT and CANCEL and the short button will temporarily be invisible.

You can figure out the rest

These are not trend lines...

 

what you are doing is simple plotting a constant price. In its simplest form, something like:

 

LMTPrice = Param("LMTPrice",50,10,100,0.01); // or what ever range.

Short = cross(C,LMTPrice);

Plot(LMTPrice,"LMTPrice",2,1);

See attached.

 

So what I would have  at the top of the chart are 2 buttons LONG and SHORT when I see price action that I want to trade Long

I would click the Long button and the AFL code would create 3 trend lines with the appropriate study ID and in this case for the green 

trigger line  it would be “RE” for resistance, then using Tomasz’s “Trend Line Broken Code”  

 

buy = cross( study( "RE" ), close );

 

the other 2 lines would just be the y = values (variables) for the prices of the stop and target. 

 

A couple of more things when either the LONG or SHORT button is clicked the 3 trend lines that are created  are just placed in the middle of 

the chart with some separation between each one, then they would be dragged into the appropriate location.

 

Also note the order of lines relative to Long or Short.  Trigger line would always be in the middle with Stop line and Target line either above /below

the trigger line depending if going long or short.

 

Hopefully I made some sense with the above.

I got it now, just didn't have the word 'automation' in my mine at

first, given your current programing experience.

 

I've long given up the dream of fully automating my systems. That

doesn't mean others can't do it either. TJ and a few others like

herman and Graham are the right persons to ask.

 

Line is just a visual tool, maybe you can bypass it and just 

calculate the price levels.

 

good luck.
