Description

It would be a great addition to MC the implementation of the possibility to place Built-in entry orders strategy from PL code. With "Built-in entry orders strategy" I mean the strategies applicable from a chart or a DOM window: "Breakout Up/Fade Strategy", "Breakout Down/Fade Strategy", "Fade Strategy" and so on.

Let's assume we are trading Crude Oil futures contracts; an example might be:

SetBreakoutUpEntry("Entry Name", Number_of_Contracts, Lower_Limit, Breakout);

Practically:

SetBreakoutUpEntry("Long Entry", 2, 70, 70.20);

Similarly for a Breakdown Strategy:

SetBreakoutDownEntry("Entry Name", Number_of_Contracts, Upper_Limit, Breakdown);

Practically:

SetBreakoutDownEntry("Short Entry", 2, 70.20, 70);

Isn't this much of an addition to MC, according to the developers? It doesn't seem so difficult to me. Please, let me know, thank you.
