Can objects i draw on chart influence Robot parameters?
11 Nov 2016, 10:17

Hello gang, my question is:

can ojects that i (a user) draw on a chart (more specific, a Horizontal Line or a Trendline like drawn below) influence parameters in a Robot?

If so, it will have to be done before the robot is running and not after?

If this can be done, can you please give me a simple example of how i will tell a robot to read info from objects drawn in the chart? I see that Trendlines and Horizontals have 2 possible fields to use, (Name and Comment fields).

Thank you in advance :)

I think this cannot be done for the moment with the current API.

What if the Robot puts the lines on the chart?

would it be possible that these lines then can be moved by the user (by dragging?),

and if so could then the Robot read price value from them?

 

I know this is doable in MT4 thats why i am asking.

Thank you for your help guys
