I got what u says, but the point is there is no field like that, look at my screenshot ( attached )
You can access input parameters by switching to the Inputs tab when adding an indicator to a chart, or, for an already attached indicator, by right-clicking anywhere on the chart, clicking Indicator List, selecting PositionSizeCalculator, then clicking Properties, and then switching to the Inputs tab.

I really appreciate it, but sadly I can't find that option even in the setting.

Hello again! Please excuse me if this is overbearing, but is it possible for the next version of the PSC to have an option where we can opt to choose between both price level and broker points at the same time under the Main Tab? I switch between both, but it takes time when I have to open and change the settings every time I do.

Is it also possible to have Order Commentary under main as well as sometimes the indicator freezes switching between Script and Main tab, and the Multi Take Profit of the script have a color coded visual line as well or move input boxes to Main tab?

Thanks for suggestions! I'll consider doing something about points/level switch on the Main tab, but I won't add the Order Commentary field to the main tab. As for the TP levels, I am already working on streamlining interaction with them.

I just migrated to from my old MacBook Pro to a new MacBook Air M1 and I can't install the Position Size Calculator as I did before.
When I go to Open Folder from Metatrader4 and open the indicator folder the Position Size Calculator folder doesn't appear...
Same for the Script.

I checked a thousand time if they were in the right place. I see them from my IOS desktop but when I go from MQL->Indicators they are not there...

What am I doing wrong?
Does anyone have the same problem?

many thanks

It's difficult to understand what's in the right place and what isn't there, but perhaps, you didn't compile PositionSizeCalculator.mq4?

Thanks for the very quick answer!
but
I can't compile it since it doesn't appear...
It worked perfectly on my old MacBook Pro, so I wonder if it's an issue with the new MacBook Air M1

on the screenshot you see
in the black windows the PositionSizeCalculator folder and the PSC script (on the IOS Desktop)
and on the left, the MetaQuote Language Editor window where the files don't appear.

In MetaEditor, you can right-click the Indicators folder in the Navigator panel and select Open Folder there - does it open the same folder that contains the PositionSizeCalculator subfolder?

But how about what I asked - is the folder that opens upon right-clicking the Indicators folder in the Navigator panel and selecting Open Folder in MetaEditor, the same one that contains PositionSizeCalculator?

Ok, after struggling quite a lot and having a headache finding why the two folders were not corresponding I found that the folder I was looking for was a hidden folder. To make a long story short, the folder I was using was the indicator folder direct from the app and the folder I needed was a hidden folder after the users folder... So if someone has the same problem.

show all hidden files on mac (command+shift+.)
follow the path to MQL folder from your hard drive and not from the app itself

Anyway, I think it works now

thanks for your time

I think I had the same problem, what you need to do is copy the folder you want to a new location. ( I copied mine to documents ) then u need to open the directory from your meta trader ( file >> open data folder ) from there you can navigate to your new location folder then copy it, then use the back arrow from the same window to go to your mql folder and paste your folders to indicator location. after all, go to meta trader and close the tree list then right-click on the indicator and refresh it. then open it and you can find it. ( actually, that worked for me I hope it helps you too )

HI DOES THE PC HAVE TO BE ON AND CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET AT ALL TIMES FOR THE MULTIPLE TAKE PROFITS TO WORK? I read that it does for EA's and will need to rent a VPS in that case.

Anyone know? please help me out thanks.

When you open trades using the PSC-Trader script based on the output of the Position Size Calculator indicator with multiple TPs, the script opens multiple trades, each with its own TP. TP (take-profit) is a server-side order, so once it is set, your MetaTrader platform no longer needs to be online. The TP will be executed by the trading server independently of your platform.

I was trying to download the PSC for mt4 on my Mac. I watched the tutorial and followed all the steps but can't seem to get it. The problem is when I drag over the positionsizecalculator folder over to mt4(open a data folder/mql4/indicators) it won't copy over. it doesn't appear in indicators, I tried dragging it over as well as copying it and can't seem to get it. Anything you can suggest
