Is this feasible in MT5?

Hi, I have been living in MT4 land and considering paying a visit to MT5 town sometime soon. One idea I had for an EA that is not possible in MT4 is a program that draws a Buy and Sell button to the screen/chart with predetermined stoploss and/or take profit levels.. this would suit an manual scalping strategy well since the sl/tp levels can be optimized using the tester and trader would only need to click a button when they see an opportunity present itself. Ive heard MT5 can create buttons on screen. Can this be done?
