Broker Interface using only the mouse: Does it exist?

Postby arjfca » 29 Apr 2011

Hello

I create few years ago, an interface in Excel to capture targeted prices from a SaxoBank chart
( Entry, Stop loss, Take profit) and buttons to send the calculated order to the broker.

Mouse over a bar, click,... Excel was capturing the desired info like Entry,
Mouse over a bar, Click.....Excel was capturing the desired stop loss price

The system was calculating the
position size,
Price of entry ( rounded captured price + 1 pip)
Price of captured Initial stop loss position ( Rounded price - 1 pip)
Position size of the initial profit exit. The size was in relation to Risk$ / Range (Entry-Stop)

Using a macro button, system created an order to buy or to sell.

Now I'm using Multicharts and I was wandering if programmable interface do exist. I'm looking for a solution where all parameters are selected with a click of the mouse and calculation done before the orders is sent.

I want to reduce to the maximum the typing of a informations while keeping the system fully manual.

System was nice, but it imply to have many software running without a flaw.

That would be nice if we could have access to macro button programing within MC.

Have you looked into ELEXCEL.DLL? I think it's a library that allows you to communicate with Excel, and could potentially link MultiCharts with Excel.
