Description & Settings
The Exp_ttm-trend_ReOpen trading system based on the signals of the indicator with trend following scaling. A trade signal is formed at the bar closure, if a colored bar appears, which is an indication of trend change. Further, it scales the volume of the opened position if the profit points of the last deal in the position exceed the threshold specified in the EA input parameters.
Information on position scaling is stored in string comment to the trade in the format of: number of scales / price of last deal / volume of last deal.

For this purpose, the corresponding code has been added to the EA code in order to include this indicator in the expert's executable file.
The indicator executable file has been added as resources at the global scope
Changed the string paths to the indicators used as resources in the block of the OnInit() function
Thus, the compiled executable file of the expert can be used on other trade terminals on its own without the indicators.
