Good Day MQL5 community .
Am looking coding for my fx robot to command the robot to set a stop-loss right after the 4hr candle closes
I would really appreciate your assistance .
I can give you a few ideas on this.

There are other approaches that can be followed, but i think this is quite straight forward.
