I got the EA for you, I have to test it, though.
There is one thing I am worried about, because you guys never state you EA specs completely.
I understand why - you simply can not think about what you don't know to think about in terms of EA coding.

{quote} the version I loaded for fixing was showing like this in my MT4 not like 2 separated lines you show. the fixed version that you show freezs MT4 and I have to shut down MT4 delete indicator from folder and restart to make MT4 working again{image}
Whatever @jeanlouie did different, or otherwise, I don't know, because he doesn't post mq4 files.
Anyways, you want to sell your indicators commercially, and you're looking for free help.
So, I don't think I am interested in any more conversation with you!
Go and hire a freelancer!

{quote} you simply can not think about what you don't know to think about in terms of EA coding.
in fact the initial SL at entry should be swing low/high.... but i did not want to complicate these things for you. simply because i have observed that in a healthy trend, the high /low of the alert candle is never breached.
anyway as promised i will start a new thread for this system by this weekend. please bear with me . but i will need your help.

{quote} This only proves my point! Can you, please, define what "swing low/high" means exactly? It's easy to code if I know the exact specification of what a swing is.

{quote} you are correct. i will define every thing. hold on for now as far as the EA is concerned... you will have the last word
Look closely at those 4 lines before the current Bar.
They represent:
- the Ask Price (clrDodgerBlue),
- the Bid Price (clrMagenta),
- the StopLevels or FreezeLevels (clrGold).
Most brokers have StopLevels and/or FreezeLevels.
They are minimal distances from the Price for our Order Prices.
On the image we can see that our real Clearance (space for an Order) is very limited.
We see nice structures and patterns of the graph, but we can't do anything, because there is not
enough space between the clrGold levels and our Entry and StopLoss Prices.
So, we must look for trades on a higher Timeframe, or on another instrument where the Clearance is sufficient.
As a coder, I have to think of such things.
A perfect situation, just a moment ago:
The indicator is giving a Sell signal, but a trade can not be opened, because there is no Clearance,
there is no room between the Entry Price and the Level, and there is no room between the Stop Loss Price and the Level.
So, even a pending order can not be opened!
And, what's more, look at what happened when the Bar closed!
There was no Sell Signal any more!
I know that I'm doing this on M1 - M1 tells us the truth!
One good thing, though!
Now I am sure that this part of the code is working fine, and the EA will not send unneccessary price requests to the broker's server!

Can you add the option to enter a hedge trade instead of closing the trade when SL or TP are hit. I would like to keep the option to have them hidden. Also, I have to add an extra 0 to the setting #'s, be great if you could fix that. Thanks.

{quote} If you're ok with simply renaming some rectangle, to be a name that will be checked for an alert, then the attached may be of use. Alert_by_Rectangle - alert by price crossing inside or outside of rectangle - there are input names for rectangles to check, default names are a1-5 - option for live or completed candles {file}
