Thank you, Etheldreda. I think the heavy load is worth it. Thanks...

Okay then.. here is the mq4. We can set max number of row per column . But I only prepared 2 columns with adjustable horizontal position.

Caution: Beware of the initial (heavy) load... :twisted:

At least for me, the (heavy) load is worthy to assist me spot possible multiple entries better... enjoy!

ITM 1j is in post 1.

I thought how useful it might be to have ITM produce fill, tp and sl lines on the chart and have the pending trade react to line movement.

Now you can use the script to send a pending trade, then load up ITM and use it to move the open price, sl and tp around. The price line is the dashed Turquoise line.

Just what the doctor ordered! Brilliant! Thanks, Steve...

etheldreda,
Thanks for your improvement. It just shows how cool open source and collaboration is.
Time to team up. We have now a branch of a branch, soon everybody is confused. You'll get a PM (over the weekend).

I did in parallel an update, dashboard can be now configured to refresh only after a bar is closed. (default). This nice thing is, you just need to set the chart timeframe to set your update frequency. So usually H4 for us. That should really lead to looow CPU consumption.

Just a heads-up for you guys.

ITM is a nightmare to adapt. Every time I make a change here, LUC kicks in and throws a party there.

Those of you who know my work of old are familiar with my 'logic fuzzes'. I thought they were a thingy of the past, so tight is my code these days following intervention from the great 'real' coders here.

Logic fuzzes are right back with ITM, so view each new release with the deepest suspicion. The apparently simple changes I made today actually took several hours and dragged out several gallons of frustration sweat. Yes, I use it to manage my live trading account, but this is a micro account with c. $550 in it. No, I do not want to blow the account but I would not slash my wrist if I did. It is not a $50,000 annual earning income account.

Re the latest version, thinking about it I am fairly sure that my latest updates will interfere with ITM moving a pending trade's sl in line with the moving average. Or vice versa. Not sure.

Keep an eye out guys and see whether there is a problem.

:D

I cannot keep up with this and your dashboard will eventually get lost. Can you do me a favour please, and start a separate thread for this? Let me know where and I can link your thread in post 1. At the mo, I have a link to your first version, but this appears to have been superseeded many times, and I have too much to do to keep up with updating your and others' updates.

Either that, or post updated versions in the post I have linked in my post 1. Then, all you have to do is post, 'Latest version at xxxxx'.

No criticism intended. Far from it. I think what you are doing is fantastic. It is just that I cannot keep up with it.

:D

CT, I did a dashboard thread here http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 675#p42675

I'm happy to maintain a first post for you and keep it centralized if you like.

Or your own if you want to. Your choice.

There is another one here I'd be happy to do if they want, as well. Steve had it up here so quick I just let it be.
