Question about 'on trade (Event Data)'

[isp00rt]

I need to capture the opening price and stop loss levels from my trades. The only way I know in fxDreema is by using the (in loop) Trade/Order in loop option at the display. But recently I discovered it can also be taken by using the option (on trade) Event Data.

What's the difference between them?

Hi @isp00rt

I am doing that by using variables when the trade is created in "OnTick" section

I guess that in "OnTrade" section to catch the SL & OP Works similar to "OnTick"

fxDreema allows to do the same in different ways.

I tried the first way but there's a problem there. Pink blocks are designed to 'load' trade specific data, but not necessarily the one you want. This is specially annoying when opening many trades per chart.

I guess there must be a substantial difference between both blocks, but I can't see what.

This is my way when I open several trades

When you find yourself copying the same block over and over again, there is usually a way to loop the process:

This method creates as many trades as you want, and assigns a special number for each one.
That number (group #) can then be used to control the trades.

Doesn't really answer to your question though, just wanted to give another way of doing it

Awesome!!!!

Thanks @roar. Your example Will reduce my Project.

I really appreciate.

@roar

How can I add the variable "position_id" to the "comment" field in the Sell/Buy block in order to show the group# for each trade created in the loop?

Thanks
