Dear Support:

Is there a study I can add to my chart, without using the spreadsheet study, which will expose the following in a subgraph:

o Number of long trades taken this period.
o Number of short trades taken this period.
o Number of profitable long trades this period.
o Number of profitable short trades this period.
o Dollar amount [1] gained/lost in long trades this period.
o Dollar amount [1] gained/lost in short trades this period.
o Elapsed seconds since most recent closed long trade.
o Elapsed seconds since most recent closed short trade.

It would be great to be able to add a study and then reference the above parameters in an CBBOAC formula!

Thank you in advance.

Is there any way of obtaining the open order quantity for a chart via a study?

I'd like my CBBOAC formula to be able to access the open order quantity, for decision-making purposes.

If not, I suppose a partial kludge would be to use Trading Profit/Loss Text Study and peek at the [show current trade time duration] subgraph? It won't tell me quantity or direction (long/short), but at least it will tell me some trade is open.

Is there any way to know if an order is pending ("a working order, waiting to be filled")?

Thanks again.
