Dear Traders,

If the MC strategy shows an entry signal and I have entered the trade. Since Entry, Profit target, Stoploss are built in as limit order in the strategy. How can I visualize them before coming. This kind of capability is in Genesis trade navigator but I didn't see in MC.

However, it is delaying the execution part. Because I am exiting the trade after the signal has been thrown on the chart despite it is limit order.

Can you guys please help !!

ilu007,

can you provide an example for what you mean with "How can I visualize them before coming."?

Hi ABCTG,

The point I am making is if I enter any position and the stoploss and profit target is a limit order or a set price. Without doing any manual calculation within the strategy to figure out stoploss & profit target, is there any way I can view those price in Multicharts Charts. One way I can have a glance about stoploss & profit target in Expert commentary but not on charts. Once again, this capability is there in Genesis Trade Navigator. Please refer to the attachments.

ilu007,

to display it on a chart out of a signal you could use text or trendlines. Apart from that you could send values to
a corresponding indicator using i_setplotvalue (and receive them via i_getplotvalue).

In case actual orders are send, MC can display the orders on the chart, too.
