hotkey functions for order entry and to remove all drawn objects by an indicator
I want to program a script where I can define a hotkey and also set a general slippage limit for stop limit orders. The function of that script would be to place the order when the hotkey is used, on the active chart window at that price where my cross-hair is at that moment. I also want the script to detect if this price is above or below the currently traded price and so to automatically place the right order, a buy stop limit order or a sell stop limit order.
How do I do that? I know that it is possible, since I have an add-on that does exactly this for NT7. I am using a keyboard for my trading with programmable keys and in combination with that add-on I am able to place ANY type of order by just placing my mouse and clicking only one simple key. I need exactly this for NT8 since it is essential for my style of trading. Support for NT7 will end sooner or later and I am stuck because before I can switch, I need to have these functions available in NT8.
Second I programmed an indicator that adds drawing objects to a chart. I need to be able to define a hotkey that removes all objects drawn by that indicator from the chart.
Something like: if userDefinedHotkey is used RemoveDrawObjects
