I was looking for something similar, but figured out it can be done with using the
"Trading System Based on Alert Condition," studies.
Set up one for the Buy signal and set it to "ACS Control Bar Button #:" 1
Set up one separate for the Sell Signal and set it to "ACS Control Bar Button #:" 2
You can set up as many as you like... Simple entries and exits only, no chase entries for example.
Now, while price is live, if the global and chart auto trading are enabled,
you still have to use the ACS Control Button 1 to enable/disable auto longs, and Button 2 to enable/disable auto shorts.
I use a hotkey A for buys and S for Sells.
So in practice, price is moving close to a level I want to short, I push the S key. The next price touch of that level takes me in.
I immediately press the S key again to ensure it is now off... That is the thing to remember... You have live ammo whenever the key is on.
