  Hi Guys,

  First I’d like to thank everyone for their assistance and input on the forum and snippet link, for someone new to coding it’s an invaluable resource to help me get my skills up to speed. One day I too hope to be a contributor. 🙂

  Please can someone advise if the following is possible through ProRealtime Screener?

  Screener to run at GMT 6am, 1pm to calculate whichever currency pair has highest %change.

  The resulting highest mover (if over a certain % change) to be a trigger and target for my automated trading strategy.

  Many thanks in advance.

  That idea can certainly be coded, but the output cannot be redirected to a strategy for automatic trading, for the following reasons:

  • strategies, indicators and screeners cannot communicate with one another
  • strategies can only trade the instrument selected when started; to change it strategies must be stopped and restarted after selecting a different instrument.
