Hi virtuesoft & chiller,

Thank all of you for this valuble topic. Badly i'm a newbie with Ctrader and don't know how to assemble these into full indicators/cbots. Could you pls kindly give full code for volume calculation? Sorry for my disturbance.

Regards.

Maybe this is a start...

This would be nice if Gold (XAUUSD) is added up as well.

You can double click on the position on the chart and it will pop up the window where you can modify the stop loss and take profit. 

 

Thanks for your soon feedback, but i already found out that this will be available when i select "Cursor" mode instead of "Crosshair" mode. That's so simple. Thanks again.

Hi, I have selected 'position' and 'order' in the view option icon, but when I move the cursor to the position line, it can't highlight the line and allow me to modify the stop and take profit level, any other setting? Thank you

 You can modify the SL and TP by right click on the position/order row in positions/orders and select modify position/order.

I got the same problem too. So this very handy function doesn't exist in Ctrader any longer?

Yes, a cBot may be coded to create trades based on input such as risk and existing positions stop loss and then stop. 

Yes, i definitely need this for my trading on Ctrader. Position Sizing is my most important thing and i miss this function when switching from MT4 to Ctrader. Hope anybody kindly help us in this regard.
