#property indicator_chart_window
// coded by Ben Nachtrieb mountainclimber11@yahoo.com
//indicator creates a csv file in your experts>files folder for each trade that is openned
//in your account. Its doesn't matter if its from and EA or manual it will record the
//profit or loss of the trade so long as it is open in your platform. It also doesn't matter
//how many trades you have open. It opens a new file for each trade that is openned. It also
//keeps track of some other stuff. I just started to use it to help me with optimual entry, sl placement,
//tp areas, and exits. I uaually graph it in excel to get a "feel" for the life of my trade and
//take some notes.
//super simple system! yet useful....
//nothing will show up on your chart when this is attached. A csv file is only created if there
//is an open trade in the account.
//enjoy!
