Default order comments when placing trades
22 Dec 2016, 20:40


It would be nice if for every trades, there is a default comment generated automatically. 

For example, if I trade GBPJPY in a Daily timeframe with balance risk of 1.2%, this trade would then have the following comment in this format: <currency pair> <timeframe> (<balance risk %>)

e.g.,

  • GBPJPY D1 (1.2%)
  • NZDUSD 2H (3.1%)

 

BENEFITS:

  • Better manage open positions 
  • Know which open positions were traded using which timeframes for further analysis
  • For tracking/inventory purposes

 

Additional Notes:

  1. Default comments can of course be EDITED, ADDED or DELETED before clicking the Place Order button.
  2. Default comments can be included on Quick Trades feature (so they would know later what risk involved and to what timeframe)
  3. Default comments can be prefixed with a Strategy Name. e.g.,
    1. London Breakout GBPJPY D1 (1.2%)
    2. Pip Runner NZDUSD M15 (1.3%)
    3. Manual Trade EURGBP 2H (6.2%)

 

Please let me know your feedback to better improve this feature request.

Default order comment

Default order comment would be very good to have but the information all depend on the preferences that are important to the trader.

Maybe, just to have a cBot where you can write your own comments as a default is the best choice, every time an order is made the default comment will come into place.

Have a look at Market order 2.0 where you can write a default comment and every time the cBot or the platform are started, the comment will be filled in automatically.
