How to code a Edit Graphic Panel in MT4 chart

 

Hello,

Object Edit
I want to create an Input box in the chart.
For example I need a Label called Lot size and an Input Box wherein I key in the Lot size.
Also I should be able to retrieve this Lot size Value and use this in Placing an order.

Now I need a input box in the chart to define my Lot size.

Could anyone able to help me on this.

Many Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,
Naren

Hi Kypa,

Thank you very much for your suggestions. I will try to implement it in MT4.
