I'd love a script like this. See my above post with a grid solution which would be way easier to code and wouldn't have to worry about different brokers GMT offsets throwing off the pivots.

Add in the auto close if CSS changes colour and Bob's your uncle (see what I did there?).

Longs
Price above 240, H4 CSS changes to goldenrod or green then set a buy stop at every x pips between price and the R1 TP. If H4 CSS closes red then close all trades and orders.

Shorts
Price below 240, H4 CSS changes to goldenrod or red then set a sell stop at every x pips between price and the S1 TP. If H4 CSS closes green then close all trades and orders.

J
The mid pivots might be an option too WMR1 to WMR2 for example - or like Bob suggested Mid quarter pivot 1 to Mid quarter pivot 2 :twisted:

Just tested 'Scaling script v1.2.mq4' and looks pretty good. Will test Franks next.

Here is a snippet code to grab the value off a trendline:

Code: Select all

   if (ObjectFind("DMRes1 ext")<0) DRes1 = -1;
   else
   {
      DRes1 = ObjectGetValueByShift("DMRes1 ext",0);
   }

Here's one I've tried this morning on the 105 CSS 1 hour EURNZD chart (setup isn't there yet on the 104 4hr) using a 20 pip grid rather than pivots. Reasons for entry are the CSS crossing, bounce of trendline, above 960 MA, Fib 61.8 retrace, and a pinbar reversal candle between Asian and London sessions. If price drops, I'll close out quickly, if it rises I've got multiple entries. Theory is good, reality with me is another :D

The moral of this story is, just because you are trading a great new system, doesnt mean you have to abandon your former ways like My Fib levels...LOL

What pip-distance do you use?
I found for the JPY-pairs H1-ATR gave a nice distance.

Great scaling script (Scaling script v1.2.mq4). It however sets different TPs for all scaled trades. Wonder if anyone could mod in an option that would allow a single TP for all scaled trades. Perhaps also a single SL.
