Modify existing EA to trade at S/R zones [issue 2]

MQL4 Indicators Experts

Specification


I have an existing EA that I would like to add some features to:

The current EA can operate either as a simple indicator, or an auto-trading EA and generates buy / sell signals on the basis of candlestick patterns.
When in auto-trading mode, the EA will only place an order once a valid buy/sell signal has been received, and the price has also moved "x" pips in the correct direction as a confirmation.

I wish to add/modify the following features to the EA/Indicator.


1. Add support/resistance zones where the signal candlestick must be touching to generate a valid signal. e.g in the attached image Signal 1 (a buy arrow) has it's High value in Zone 1 so would initially be considered to be valid.
An up/down arrow should be drawn on the screen when a valid signal is generated, but this is not yet a buy/sell signal.
Once a valid signal has been generated, it is not necessary for the confirmation move to stay within the zone.
10 resistance zones should be supported, with the upper and lower limits entered in the EA settings.
When new values for the S/R zones are entered, the original rectangles should be removed.
The rectangles should be drawn with a start time of at least 1 year ago, and an end time of at least +1 day (can be infinite in both directions). The colour of the rectangles should be selectable in the input parameters.

2. Only allow buy signals if the price has entered from above a zone, and only allow sell signals if the price has entered from below the zone. ( so in the case of Signal 1, this would no longer be valid as the price entered from below the zone).
The valid signals in the attached image are: 2, 4, 9.
In order to debug the EA it would be useful to display the status of the "price from above/ price from below/ out of zone".

Whilst any part of a candle touches a zone it is considered to still have entered from the inital entry condition, i.e. the price enters from below before signal bar 1, and stays "from below" until the price leaves the zone on the candle after signal 3.

The price enters Zone 2 from below at Signal 4, and then enters Zone 1 from above on the next bar.

3. Resolve an issue where the existing EA creates multiple up/down arrows on the chart for each valid signal. (At the moment the EA can generate up to around 100 arrow objects on the chart at the same location)


4. Stop auto-trading at the end of each day at a pre-set time (variable time parameter required to select end of day, e.g. 22:30). The EA should stop trading (not open new orders) at the end of each day, and only restart trading when an on-screen button is pressed at the start of the next trading day ( this is to allow me to change the zones as they only remain valid for 1 day ).
The on-screen button should display "Press to activate" when the EA has stopped, and "Running" once activated.


5. The EA should also draw a number of groups of lines that show various additional support and resistance lines. Data for each line will be manually entered, it is not necessary to calculate any values. The lines required should be labelled as follows:
These lines are not used by the auto-trading feature, and are just visual. Old lines should be removed when new values are entered.

i) All round numbers from P1 to P2, in P3 increments, e.g. 5000 - 7000 in 100 increments. One definable line type and one colour for this group. The limits and distance between the round numbers should be defined in three fields, e.g. 5000,7000,100.
ii) R3,R2,R1.One definable line type and one colour for this group.
iii) Pivot. One definable line type and one colour for this group.
iv) S1,S2,S3. One definable line type and one colour for this group.
v) Support Lines. 6 support lines. One definable line type and one colour for this group.

vi) Resistance Lines. 6 resistance lines. One definable line type and one colour for this group.
vii) Open, High, Low, Close. One definable line type and one colour for each of these 4 lines.


6. Include a trailing stop which can be turned on or off.

7. The final EA must still be able to act as either an indicator or EA, i.e. be able to turn off trading, but still generate the signal candle alerts.

8.  An on-screen indication of the following conditions should be shown in order to help debug operation of the EA [Price out of zone, Price approached from above, Price approached from below].

If the price touches two zones then the signal/trade is invalid. 

The price is considered "Out of zone" once a candle has fully completed and is not touching a zone.
