If you do it with market orders, price first has to travel to you (few ms latency), EA has to check if the order needs to be placed (another few ms latency), then send the order to the broker (and more ms latency again). Market orders are always the slowest type of order execution because of the above explanation. Pending orders, on the other hand, reside directly within the broker&#039;s server already and are triggered much, much faster. How do I know this? I do work part-time for a well-known broker on their backend (MT4 bridge to their liquidity providers). Market orders always have a higher execution time (and hence more slippage) by a magnitude of about 10! Pending orders are filled within ~30ms, while market orders are filled within ~300ms. You should really consider making FSB use pending orders.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Also support resistance can be not only horizontal, it can be trendline drawn from 2 swing highs and lows. I am studying two resources who uses trend lines successfully : <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Price-Action-practical-analysis/dp/908227860X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1502785333&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=volman">https://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Pr … rds=volman</a><br />and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/PATsTrading">https://www.youtube.com/user/PATsTrading</a> . Not so sure if these manual trading methods can be programmed. However few trading setups using trendlines is pretty clear for me, but not taking context in mind can be dangerous. Probably (like always) there is only one chance to know if it works is to make it ant test <img src="https://forexsb.com/forum/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /></p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Some time ago was thinking about support/resistance indicator. My best choice would be to take nearly 2 swing highs or 2 swing lows. Level where price reversed. And you get a horizontal line/price what you can trade with different logic: reversal on that line; break out; break out pull back etc.</p>]]></description>

Non-repainting zigzag, but the main problem with it was lag. Other versions exist also, which are non-repainting or non-recalculating, i believe they use user-defined leg length, hence if that length is reached, the leg gets drawn without recalculation.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,<br />Maybe 3-4 years back I got involved in automated trading because I wanted to test so badly some strategy with your second link posted indicator. Manual testing with strategy looked so good! It is called SD (supply and demand, based on Sam Seiden teachings) indicator, and you can find it in forexfactory and various other places with some strategy and indicator variations. I learn some mql4 skills and tested it with mt4 and found no edge, and I tried it hard! <img src="https://forexsb.com/forum/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /> Of course with some filters and fsb, if you dig deep enough something would pop up. </p><p>How I can remember that indicator takes swing high/lows values from Zigzag indicator and extends a little bit to get zone with &quot;base&quot; candles.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I think there are many SR indis available to MT, so why not take one of those as a base example and development can go on from there. Usually porting mq4 to FSB is the easier way, developing one from scratch can be time-consuming task with quite many trials and errors.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Yes, the purpose of starting this thread was to discuss how it might be achieved (if at all).</p><p>The first hurdle would be to determine how S&amp;R levels are selected.</p><p>The second would be how those levels would actually be implemented to simulate how manual traders use them.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hmm, no human-readable sources available... </p><p>Well, basically and principally everything is possible. Regarding FSB, a very good understanding of how it has to be coded is needed, otherwise one can see many holy grails in backtesting only to find out that the indicator has critical errors. I think most who have done indis for FSB have experienced it at first. One cannot forget some limitations of FSB, it&#039;s important to keep things light calculation-wise.</p><p>In conclusion, yeah, it&#039;s possible, but the devil is in the details (like with most things).</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>footon: The first costs $149.</p><p>The d/l link for the latter is: <br /><a href="https://www.fxtradingrevolution.com/uploads/5/4/6/5/54651913/fxr_sr_zones_2.98.ex4">https://www.fxtradingrevolution.com/upl … s_2.98.ex4</a></p><p> EAs cannot interact with either of them.</p><p>It&#039;s not these actual indicators with which I&#039;m concerned; it&#039;s the viability of developing something similar into a usable indicator. Perhaps the ideas behind them are feasible, but not well-executed. (Don&#039;t know, as I haven&#039;t used them.)</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>John, I&#039;m too lazy and tired at the moment to research your links, post the source of those indis, if they are available. I&#039;ll then take a glance and can offer my opinion.</p>]]></description>
