Hi all! I am on the new Xard8. It's great! However, I would like to be able to see the SL ad TP lines that are placed upon taking an order. I have checked the EA for options and several indicators, but cannot see any options. Does anybody know how to help? Thank you.
Right click on chart --> properties --> show trade levels
By the way, download the new version in Post #2, it is faster and already has show trade levels activated by default

You have to use 2.0 or higher
2.0 I recommend if you are using a non regulated broker as the decimals of indices can get crazy. Change the font sizes to adjust this to a smaller number to fit them
3.0 has that capability but its a bit smaller overall, 2.0 moves to scale the text just a bit. I am using 3.0 preferably.
Note: Even though it says indices you can enter whatever you like! XAUUSD;GBPJPY;NAS100;U30USD for example

Hi, thanks! I downloaded the latest version today. But prior to that, I already did have the 'show trade levels' in my properties checked...
I already was afraid of this, but whenever I make a new order, no stop loss or take profit is set. Do you or does anybody know what might be the problem?

Hi mate, i hope you are well.
The EA doesn't set any SL or TP, it just tells you the SL value equivalent to a 2% loss, but it's a Virtual SL, you can set the SL and TP by dragging the entry price line up and down.
Regards

Dear Xard, can you please tell me why on one monitor I have a good looking graph, but on the other monitor all symbols are in a pile and different ADR ? How to fix it ?
Thanks

Wow, how stupid of me! I came from MT4 and I just assumed.... I'm so sorry to have bothered you. But it saves me a great deal of time to wonder what is wrong. Exactly nothing as it turns out, lol! Thanks again

Update:
So I decided to add to the DIRECTIONAL PLAY by graying out the opposite Candles Above and Below the EMA100.
Viola! No more rocket science when trading.

This has always been my idea of a perfect visual trading system. The bias colors should only show when the trades have met some conditions.
Must have taken alot of coding tactics and experience. Hope we get the update soon.

Hi Familia
Yesterday was ANZAC Day here in New Zealand and in Australia. The AUS200 index was dead on open, and I was expecting lower volume. I waited for Hong Kong to open.
A tidy sell trade after the price dropped below the open line and got out at the first sign of exhaustion.
My best for a great weekend

"Why I Wish I Switched to MT5 Sooner: A Trader’s Journey"
Switching from MT4 to MT5 wasn’t a walk in the park, and I’ll admit I had my fair share of frustrations. Learning a new platform from scratch was daunting, and it was aggravating to see my old code not work the same way, forcing me to come up with workarounds and adapt. Looking back, though, was it worth the hassle? Absolutely. MT5 is lightning-fast, blowing MT4 out of the water in terms of speed and performance. Plus, the range of trading options it opens up—crypto, commodities, shares, and forex—has given me so much more flexibility. The platform’s sleek design and smooth functionality have completely transformed how I approach trading, making it more enjoyable and efficient. My only regret is not biting the bullet and making the switch years earlier. I’m still kicking myself for sticking with MT4 for so long when MT5 was this good all along. I’ve learned that when you get old, you can get stubborn and stuck in your ways, and I’m living proof of that.
Best,
