Double-click the line to select it. Lines become unselected when loaded via a chart template.
Guys, i have a problem: i installed position size calculator and have 4 charts open (on all of those i have it installed). Now i installed a PSC script, and when i try to place a trade via hot key - PSC script writes "Cannot not find position size". What might be the problem?
Why you installed PSC Scripts?. it is no need.
The "Position Sizer" is EA.
If you were using older version of position sizer indicator. remove all that with script. copy this new position sizer EA to expert folder. Compile it and use it.
I have installed the Position Sizer EA but it won't allow me to execute a trade. I am receiving the error "'Position Sizer\Position Sizer' is not script and cannot be executed", any help would be greatly appreciated

Ok, i try only Position Sizer, but then i suppose it should have placed a trade at least on his size (as i had same hot key as for PSC) but it did not.
Will check - thanks.

Just remove the script from folder. There is input parameter to set the hot key from the EA while you loading the EA

Position Sizer should be installed into the Experts folder. The error text suggests that you have installed it in the Scripts folder.
It has its own trading hotkey setting (set via input parameters). Alternatively, you can trade using the Trade button on the Trading tab.
Thanks for your reply. I have it installed in both scripts and expert advisors, I'm not sure how. Can you please explain how I execute a trade after setting SL, TP etc? I have tried to drag position sizer EA onto the chart but I just get the message, "Do you really want to stop 'Position Sizer' and execute 'Position Sizer' on the chart 'GBPUSD,M1'? I have also tried to program hotkeys
You don't need to install it to the Scripts folder. I recommend removing it from there to avoid confusion. You execute a trade either with a hotkey (set via Position Sizer input parameters) or with a Trade button on the Trading tab.
The hot key does not work but I have successfully managed to execute a trade by pressing trade on the trading tab. Thank you so much. Forever grateful. Such a great EA, I am using it for good risk management and partial profits
Trade button on the main tab will be more helpful Enivid. If you ask vote most of the people will vote for it to be in the main tab.
One the one hand, you are right - I was thinking the same when converting PSC to PS. But on the other hand, I decided against it because it would keep traders from seeing all the trading options before hitting the Trade button. My reasoning was that a hotkey would be enough for those who don't want to switch to the Trading tab.
Most of the time We adjust the Entry lines,Stop lines with the mouse. So if we use the same tab for the place orders It'll be more user friendly.

In this ver. for MT5 everything is right
but I I use most mt4
Can anyone please help me edit the code ?

It cannot do that but it provides an option to open two trades, dividing the calculated position size between them, and then you can close one of the two trades.
Thanks.. that feature is great. I used it. May be add partial booking in your "To Do" list.
About moving SL lines, Apparently that is only possible when Order type is set to pending, if it is set to current. Double clicking line does not activate it. Or may be as it is connected to my ATR value.. so it keep on jumping.
But all in all.. Very good and superb EA. loved it. I was about to buy Magic Keys physical version. but this is almost equivalent.
If you are using ATR-based SL, you cannot move it. Set the SL multiplier to 0 in the panel and then you will be able to move the line.
