In this code, it has the trailing stop set for 45 pips. But the trailing stop doesnt seem to Activate until it moves 45 pips. How would I need to change it to have the trailing stop activated when the trade is placed?

Could it be modified to have the prices show different colors depending on how they open? Like if it opens higher than the previous bar the price would be green, if lower, then red, and if even then yellow? With these colors being selectable? Also, could you extend it to show 10 openings instead of just 6?
Also on the EA we just fixed, How would I put an input setting like, "Pips to Activate Trailing Stop". I have this in another EA but unsure how to code it.
