* Labels can be positioned to the right of candles (use MetaTrader's Chart Shift)

* TP & SL update dynamically if moved manually, e.g. as SL moved the TP lines will update if set as risk reward ratio
* SL, TP and lots will be based on pending order if set and again SL & TP lines will update dynamically if pending moved to new price
* TP line label will show risk reward ratio even if set as price, pips, etc.

- Added 'point to pip divider' to CONFIG | Advanced, which controls our definition of a pip. Set to 1 if would like the system to use points like MetaTrader, rather the classic pips (0.0001 change on EURUSD), which is our default. Users trading indices may wish to set to 100 so one pip is one basis points, for most brokers.
- Added 'broker requires SL to be set with order open request' to CONFIG | Options. This is required for some EU regulated brokers.

Product is really good. Lots of options/variables/settings you can change. This obviously comes with a learning curve but support in all forms is accessible. Support from the dev is also very fast.
They also seem to be working on this constantly which makes this ea a great buy.
If you have some system in mind of how to trade you can probably set it up with this ea and let it run smoothly. I trade semi-automatically and am very satisfied.
