Hi Jagadeesh,
It is possible to add Buy/Sell Button to amibroker Chart.
To place Order U have to simply press the respective Button.
U Can do this with AFL.

Thanks alot sir… :slight_smile:

thank you so much sir…:slight_smile:

Hello Sir… Thanks again for the AFL. It is highly helpful. But one help.
I want to set the background color to white and the text color to black as I have been using white background for years. Can you please tell me which parameters to change in the given AFL as I find a lot of parameters which are assigned with colorBlack and colorWhite.
Thanks in advance. :slight_smile:

Hi Jagadeesh…

Hi ChokS,
Many thanks for this.
When we fire BUY/SELL orders from Amibroker using the BUY/SELL buttons like this, will it generate BUY/SELL alert in Pi as in semi automatic trading and then we submit the order or it will directly place the order in Pi?
Thanks
bk

Hi Bk…
It has options for Both Manual and Auto Submit…
Please go through the Help Files…
