Hi Steve and Gary, this tools are really useful. Keeping it simple is good, and just being able to trade the CSS colour change is a great tool to keep in the box. One suggestion, is having the option to exlude the 240 MA to determine long/short and use a manual input for long/short instead. This helps in scenarios where price may have slightly gone above/below the 240 but the bias remains the same, e.g. when the breach of the 240 is just a retrace. Thanks for all the time you've put into this. Really appreciated.

I have added the Individual Trade Manager features to the CSS colour change script. You can still use it as Jem originally intended by leaving all the additional features turned off. V 1b in post 1.

Developing the script on the M1 chart yesterday, it made pips. The script will form the basis of a scalper EA that we can play with to see if it is a goer. We shall see. New-toy announcement in my Sunday round-up is the plan.

Hi Steve, quick feedback, the script is looking great so set it up on a number of pairs overnight on demo just to check everything working ok, but noticed only about half of the trades fired even though the CSS 1Hour had crossed. I didn't have the normal CSS 1Hour loaded because I think the script is looking at the library which I placed your file into, should I still have the normal CSS 1 H indicator loaded? Sorry if it seems a stupid question, I'm running on a VPS and want to keep my overheads down. The ones that did fire seemed to work great and closed when they were supposed to close. I checked the log and all I could see was a lot of 10.5 CurrencySlopeStrength1.0.7d for automation NZDUSD;H1:unknown subwindow number -1 for ObjectCreate function on all the different pairs, don't know what that means. Anyway, just trying to help and give some feedback.

Have a great weekend

I am sorry, but I don't understand your question.

If you select CSS_timeframe = 1, then the CSS Manager will close buy trades/pendings as soon as the H1 CSS turns red, and it will close sell trades/pedings as soon as the the H1 CSS turns green.

If you select CSS_timeframe = 4, then the same will happen based on the H4 CSS.

If you think that the CSS Manager closes trades/pendings too fast, you can increase the differenceThreshold, which is the difference between the two CSS lines.

V 1c of my CSS colour change script is in post 1. When I tried to adjust the sl by dragging the line yesterday I discovered this function did not work - because I had forgotten to add the code. Oops. I have not tested the code yet, but I copied it from 10.4 ITM, so it should be ok.

Also added some more of my normal feedback - swap, spread etc, along with a display of our chosen sl/tp inputs.

:D
