Hello everyone,
again I post this to give back to the community that has helped me become the trader I am today.
I have it all worked out, this is the script, works wonders! This was created by my developer Antonio Lopez Jr from Odesk, one of the most affordable, quick, and helpful programmers for mt4.
I will post his notes on this script, V2 will have trailing stop option, and this works with 5 digit brokers HAVE FUN…
Here’s Hot keys send order script. This script will open orders using combination of hotkeys. For this version, I have programmed script to open orders using combination of keys “B” + hotkey for buy and “S” + hotkey for sell. I used cmbination of keys to avoid accidental keystroke and sending of orders but we can modify it to any key you want, this is just the test version. The script is currently programmed to send orders on 4 currency pairs only and we can add more later, just give me the list of currencies and I’ll hard code them in the script. Thes 4 pairs are"
EURUSD - hotkey=1
GBPUSD - hotkey=2
EURJPY - hotkey=3
EURCHF - hotkey=4
These are the default pairs and hotkeys but you can change these pairs and corresponding hot keys in the user input window. You can also change lotsize stoploss and take profit in user input window. I also added the option to send stoploss and take profit with orders (will work even on ECN brokers) so that the orders will not be dependent on the trade monitor EA but you can turn off this feature and send orders without SL and TP buy setting “Send_SL_TP” variable to false. You can use the EA that I sent you yesterday to monitor trades without SL and TP, just don’t forget to set the EA parameter “OpenInstantOrders” t false so that it will not send any orders and just monitor trades.
Please take note that the script works by pressing combination of keys and so to instantly buy EURUSD you must press and hold “B” and “1” (the corresponding hotkey) to send EURUSD long order. To instantly sell EURUSD you must press and hold “S” and “1” to send EURUSD short order. The script works on a 1 second loop interval and so you must press and hold the combination keys for about a second or until you hear the alarm sound which I added to confirm that the hotkeys command has been sent successfully. Also , don’t press the combination keys too long or else the script will send more than one order, if you hear the alarm sound, remove your hold on the keys immediately.
The script needs external windows dll and mt4 scripts to work and so make sure that these boxes are checked.
This is a script not an EA and so please put this in experts/scripts folder then attach to any chart.
Please test and send feedback, this is just the test version and we can make adjustments on how many pairs and keystroke combinations later.
Regards
Tony
