Manual Intervention - EA

[TraderEA6]

Hi,

I am running an EA and think it is doing fine but i do like to close it or add in SL manually time to time.

Problem

1. if i close the trade manually, another trade will open immediately as the condition are still valid. How can i prevent another trade from opening since i just close it?

Thank you

You can turn off the block on top of your launching tree. You can also create a time period not to operate after that last closed trade.

Hi @l-andorrà ,

I explore a few method but it just didnt work out.

Using my example. Can you guide me on what can i add in the For each trade so that if my trade hit TP/SL or i manually close it, it will not immediately open another trade of the same direction that it TP or SL. But the EA will continue after another 2 bar or 2 hrs.

Appreciate it.

Thanks

That 'pass' block is unnecessary unless you are modifying a variable in it. On the other hand, I'm not sure ti use a 'For each closed trade' block. Finally that 'delay' block is not operational for what you want (I guess).

AM I right to say that the launching part is working correctly and the that part it isn't is the one blocking new trades. Right?

yes, new trade are still being open. Example.. at 10:05PM SL of Sell are hit. Then at 10.05PM the same sell are being open again. I want to stop this new trade. Atleast delay till the next candle. What should i do?

Ok. I see. You can do the following:

1. Move Block ID 11 immediatley below blocks 3 and 5. That will stop the launcher tree.
2. Then create this separate tree:

I chose 5 minutes to wait, but you can choose any other time period you need. Please note that a selected a '1' at the bottom of the 'For each closed trade' block. That is the way to find the last closed trade and not any other previous one.

Thanks @l-andorrà Somehow it didnt wokr for me. After the trade is closed. No more trade are being opened. I sustpect the block is being turned off and then not ON again. I will continue to explore

Obviously, the block needs to be turned On again. I assumed you already knew that part. I just modified the second block tree as it should be. Now you need to specify the conditions for the block to be turned on again.
