Manual Line-Crossing Entries and Exits in an Expert Advisor
Summary
This Expert Advisor uses four user-positioned chart lines to trigger buy, sell, and close actions. A trade action occurs when the quoted market crosses the corresponding line, with the description specifying the ask moving above it while the bid is below. Users can disable individual entry or closing lines, set a lot size and maximum order count, and use angled closing lines as a trailing stop.
The document explains the interface and trigger concept but provides no backtest, market selection, order execution detail, or evidence of profitability. Its rule is based on price-line crossings, so results would depend on how the lines are placed and how the platform handles spread, gaps, and fills. It is a description of a configurable trading tool, not a validated trading method.

- It triggers actions when market prices cross the corresponding line.
