Hi Anthony, That would be cool. Would it be possible at a later time to change the AFL? I currently have it in NinjaTrader -- where I am also not able to add a button :) -- and could quickly translate a simplified version.
Also, I can be reached at gordon at activecert.com. I'm happy to post it, could also post it in a reply email. The code itself isn't very interesting per se since it just looks at price anbd indicator values and formats and order file from the information. I simple version would bt to place a buy order one tick above the previous bar.

Anthony, I'm curious -- how did you accomplish what you attached in the jpg? I wasn't aware of that capability. Also, does the AFL code behind your button have the ability to access data for the current symbol? If not, I may need to go with chart buttons. Dennis, what I'm trying to do is create an order button -- so having it handy is very important. When I see the conditions I want to see for an order, I need to calculate some limit values based on price and indicator values on the immediately prior bar -- the one that just finished painting. The order isn't part of an automated system -- there is some visual discretion. An order button that combined access to the current chart data plus the interface of the broker would be ideal. Thanks again.

Attached shows 1 button....

I'd prefer a new toolbar button, and am willing to use win32 coding if there's a way to do it. Barring being able to do this, I seem to recall a post about using OLE automation to execute blocks of script on demand -- I believe it involved using commentary or notes -- I am going to search to for that and if I find what I think I'm looking for, I'll post the link in this thread.
