Hello,

I am wondering can a custom breakout or sell breakdown button be created. Meaning buying above the previous bar close with a tick offset or selling below the previous bar close with a tick offset. Say I see the 5 minute candle and it just closed
on its low and I wanted to sell 4 ticks below that previous bar close. Is this something that would need to be custom created? If this is something that needs to be custom created is it something that would be difficult for a decent coder? Just trying to get a guage for
how much money I would have to allocate for something like this.

thank you for your time.

This is something that would require a custom study.

It should not be too difficult to code for someone familiar with order entry with our interface language (ACSIL) as most of what you are doing is entering an order at a specific price. But if your offset will change based on conditions, then you would have to determine how that offset is going to be determined and build that in. Or worst case, have you enter the offset into the study Inputs.
