The best trendline auto trading experience so far. Here one or more trend lines of different timeframes in the same direction are easily placed on a chart to auto trade within a strong trading opportunity.
2. PANEL/EXIT BUTTONS
Click the panel button to display the operating buttons. Use the "Exit" button to clear all operating buttons.
3. ATTACHING TRENDSCOUT TO MULTIPLE CHARTS
The Expert/utility can be attached to as many charts as are open on the trading platform. You can use the "ttt" ("---") button to block Trendscout from accessing network on the charts in which you are not ready to place trend lines at the moment. The symbol "ttt" indicates that network is accessible by Trendscout while "---" indicates that network is not accessible by Trendscout.
The Expert/utility can be attached to all open charts on the trading platform. Click the "ttt" button to block Trendscout's network access on charts where you don't intend to place trend lines immediately. "ttt" shows network is accessible, while "---" shows network is restricted. This is an added flexibility to block network access on specific charts as needed for focused monitoring
4. TREND LINE TYPES
Two types of trend lines are available based on the selected chart type. When using candlesticks or bar charts, the trend line will switch to price high/low mode automatically. Alternatively, when using line charts, the trend line will switch to close mode without additional action required. Note that the limitation on trend line adjustment based on chart type change applies during timeframe hopping.
5. ADDING MULTIPLE TRENDLINES IN THE SAME DIRECTION
To trigger a stronger trading opportunity you can require that price breaks two or more trend lines of different timeframes in the same direction. To do this navigate to the timeframe for which you want to add a trend line and click "Bull Line" or "Bear Line" button as the case may be. Next, navigate to the timeframe for which you want to add the second trend line. Click on the "Bull Line" or "Bear Line" button as the case may be twice. This will place the second trend line without deleting the first trend line. You can do this for as many timeframes as needed.
A trading opportunity will be triggered or an order for the instrument will open only when price breaks all the trend lines in the direction they are placed. Note that two trend lines cannot be placed for one timeframe in the same direction. A trend line timeframe is identified by the name of the timeframe that appears on the tooltip of each trend line and its handles.
6. PLACING TWO OPPOSITE TRENDLINES FOR ONE TIMEFRAME SIMULTANEOUSELY
Utilize the "Trend Lines" button to place bull and bear trend lines to the current timeframe. This button does not append new trend lines to existing ones, even if you switch to another timeframe.
7. TIMEFRAME HOPPING (REVISITING A TIMEFRAME FOR TREND LINE READJUSTMENT)
If you have a trend line in one timeframe and switch to another, you cannot modify the trend line for the previous timeframe using the handles, even if you return to it. To make adjustments, you need to delete and re-add it using the appropriate "Bull Line" or "Bear Line" button. Then, you can modify the trend line using the vertical handles.
8. DELETING ALL TRENDLINES
To remove all placed trend lines on the chart simultaneously, click the "Trend Lines" button when the button caption displays a timeframe name.
9. AUTO TRADING
Trendscout can place orders for you automatically. You have to enable “Auto trading” and also check the “Enable live trading” box at the parameter window. When price crosses the trend lines for the first time two massages are sent to your mobile phone or to your email as the case may. One message is for line crossing notification while the other message is a trade notification. You may also receive a third message for trade notification from the platform if you check the "Enable alerts" box at the "Common" tab of the Parameter window. Whether you "Disable alert once hit" or not, Trendscout is designed to send alert only once. Note that auto trading can only be enable if the current chart timeframe has its own trend line placed.
10. MANUAL TRADING
To place orders as a user you need to turn off either the "Auto Trading" button on the trading platform or disable (uncheck) the "Allow live trading" box at "Common" tab of the parameter window.
11. MULTIPLE OPEN POSITIONS
Only one open position can be placed via auto trading method. If you wish to place multiple open positions you can only do that manually.
12. CLOSING ALL OPEN TRADES
Use the “Close All” buttons to close all open trades in the account. All open trades can be closed only when “Auto trading” is enabled and also when the “Enable live trading” box at the parameter window is checked. Note that pending orders are not open position and hence are not closed by “Close All” button.
13. PUSH AND EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS
In order to receive push notifications from Trendscout to your mobile phone when price crosses a trend line, be sure to enter your MetaQuote ID at the "Notification" tab of the "Option" settings of the "Tools" menu. Also, check the "Enable Push Notifications" box. You may also wish to receive email notification from Trendscout. All you need do is enter your email parameters at Menu\Tools\Options\Email. Be sure to check the "Enable" check box.
14. USING THE DATE ANCHOR AND DATE ANCHOR BUTTON
The “Date Anchor” can be used in the following ways:
(i) View the date, time and bar position in the “Date anchor button” at a glance.
(ii) The Date anchor time is in am/pm type to contrast it with most brokers’ 24 hour type.
(iii) The Date anchor secure the line to a specific date and time across all open charts.
