If you're looking to spice up your trading game, the trade panel designed for both manual and automated trading is a must-see! This nifty tool showcases what you can do with the MasterWindows library. The code for this panel is generated automatically using the visual design environment for interface windows, MasterWindows for MQL5.
By diving into the price databases from the ENUM_APPLIED_PRICE type, you can forecast future price movements. The likelihood of these movements is displayed on a scale and represented as a percentage, giving you a clearer picture of your trading decisions. This trade panel's functionality allows you to send requests to your broker for executing trades, using market orders in this example. Plus, you can easily close orders, toggle Stop Loss settings, and even engage autopilot mode!
So, what does autopilot mean? It’s automated trading based on the signals generated from the panel, and you can activate this mode with just a click of a button.
Input Data:
input bool inp_on_trade=false; // Autopilot (On/Off) input double inp_open=85; // Opening position threshold input double inp_close=55; // Closing position threshold input double inp_lot_fix=0.01; // Fixed lot size input double inp_lot_perc=0.01 // Lot size as a percentage of equity input bool inp_on_lot=false // if "false", it’s % of the equity input bool inp_on_SL=false // Stop Loss (On/Off)

Recommendations:
- Make sure to place the MasterWindows library in the \MQL4\Include\ folder. This ensures your interface windows operate smoothly.
- For optimal display, consider using graphical schemes with a black background for your created interface windows.
- This panel is primarily a demo tool (think of it as a fun project) and isn’t meant for live accounts right off the bat. However, feel free to tweak or replace the BUYorSELL() signal generation function to align with your trading strategy, add position support functions, and test it out on a live account!
