suggestion to mark the SL as an order is executed by PS

[paymanz]

hi , would be nice to leave a mark on the initial SL as order being executed , it can help to review the trades afterwards. a little trend line that represents the SL.

Could you please elaborate?

[paymanz]

seeking a way to mark where the SL was placed initially at opening time of a position. is there a way to know where was the initial SL conveniently that you can suggest?

my suggestion is to draw an small horizontal trendline at the SL level so later you can see it and know the initial SL level. i think some EA that i used few years ago did this but i cant remember the name.

How would you use this? Do you mean to be able to see where the currently open trade's SL was or do you want to analyze multiple (closed) trades that way?

[paymanz]

i mean to use it for closed trades...

[aamoraru]

I think it's best to find (or develop) some trade history indicators for that... This one, for example, is a script that displays the original SL for past trades.

osfx.ExtendedTradeHistory.v01.zip

maybe it used to work correctly but as i tested it , it just draws some strange rectangles

[paymanz]

so the initial SL data is accessible? that's nice to know. so with a scrip i can do the markup.

example of what im looking for , notice the red trendline that represent the SL

Yes, I understand what you are looking for. I will probably make an indicator that shows that in the future, but there probably an existing one somewhere.
