    Hello,

    I have an important question.
    With ProOrder, trades are triggered when a new candle opens.

    Is it possible to take a trade without waiting for the candle to close?

    For my robots I would like to take trades:
    – As soon as the price breaks the highest of the previous candle.
    – As soon as the price rebounds on an SMA20.

    Simple example to use a pending order on a dynamic price level (SMA20):

    timeframe(15 minutes) //timeframe of the moving average, change with your desired timeframe
    avg = average[20](close)
    
    timeframe(10 seconds) //10 seconds or whatever timeframe/time period you want the pending order to be updated 
    if not longonmarket and close>avg then //not on market and price is above the SMA20
     buy 1 contract at avg limit //put a pending order on average 20
    endif  
    
    

    Every 10 seconds, a pending limit order will be set at the exact price of the 15-minutes TF SMA20.
