Need help with order opening when my indicator draws arrows!
-
PLS i have an indicator that also shows arrow, which of this signs would i use so as to tell the EA to pick the trade when the arrow shows, ==, >=, <=, !=.

Hello!
I have indicator that draws up and down arrows (blue/red) on chart when i need to open order. I wand to made an EA on its base. EA must open orders when arrows are drawn.
Here is link on my wrong EA.https://fxdreema.com/shared/9idWYi2Jb
Some additional information:
- When indicator is dropped on chart, he draws arrows on history. I want to EA do not use old arrows, but only those who ware draws after next tick (new arrows).
- Arrows are redrawing inside one candle, on next candle arrow freezes. I need EA to open order only on first time arrow is drawn (once per candle; first time drawn).
Here screenshot of indicator working - http://savepic.net/5370997.htm
Help me please to build working EA!
Thanks! -
I just replied to very similar question: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2464
There is no need to work with objects if the indicator has working buffers, so check those buffers first. If buffers does not give you any meaningful information (because not all custom indicators do), then the objects can be used.
Otherwise in your project you are checking for Arrow Down and Arrow Up, but the arrows on the chart are not exactly this type. Here are all arrow codes listed: http://docs.mql4.com/constants/objectco ... /wingdings You can check that code with Condition, but better check if you have working buffers out there
And use "Once per bar" after (not before) the block who detects when the arrow is there to make the logic to detect only the first appearance of the arrow.

Thanks for answer!
My indicator has 8 buffers (0;1;2;3;4;5;6;7) - 8xStochastics with different values.
There is no buffer for those arrows, they are drawing when all 8 buffers (Stochastic oscillator lines) are crossing a level line.May be there is another way to catch those object on chart by color checking.
For example: for each object ---> check color ---> if blue then open buy, if red then sell. I have tried that way but nothing exist...Additional inf. - http://savepic.net/5365660.jpg
Thanks!

This is for a new block like "Object Appear", but there are so many objects and parameters... sometimes it's easier to just write some simple code like this:
static string name0; int total=ObjectsTotal(); for (int i=total-1; i>=0; i--) { string name=ObjectName(i); if (name==name0) {break;} if (ObjectType(name)==OBJ_ARROW && ObjectGet(name, OBJPROP_ARROWCODE)==236) { if (ObjectGet(name, OBJPROP_COLOR)==Blue) { name0=name; ~next~ break; } else if (ObjectGet(name, OBJPROP_COLOR)==Red) { name0=name; ~inext~ break; } } }Try this in a custom block (https://fxdreema.com/studio/MQL4). I didn't tested it, but I guess it will work.. or it will need some simple fix. I hope you will get what is the idea, I think you have some MQL4 basics
Keyword ~next~ will be replaced with function calls for the next blocks for the orange output, and ~inext~ also, but for the yellow output. -
Hello again!
Shame on me, i have not been able to deal with this code you wrote to me.
Separately i understand it and how to use blocks in fxDreema. But i can not to connect this code to fxDreema blocks.
And if you have the opportunity, please help me to add the custom block with custom code based on my indicator - "SpundsStochastic" to my project.
Only what i want to my EA detects new symbols - Arrows, by type(number, for example 236) or by color.
Here is the picture how it must to work - http://savepic.net/5384677.jpg
And below is code of my indicator.
Thanks allot if would help me again!

The code I posted above was to be used as a custom block via https://fxdreema.com/studio/MQL4, not within "Custom MQL4 code". The "Custom MQL4 code" does the code that is written inside and it passes always, so it's not suitable to make a condition. While in the studio (https://fxdreema.com/studio/MQL4) the keywords ~next~ and ~inext~ connects the block with the next blocks... I already wrote that above. Just try it

Oh, thanks allot!!!
I just have problems with English knowledge, and have not understand all correctly, sorry for that!
I made a custom block, started testing in MT4, but still have some problems
. Now he can`t to find the symbols - http://savepic.net/5389600.jpg -
The real symbol name looks to be EURUSD.e

Could you please open a new thread instead of retaking this old one? Additionally, sharing the indicator would help.
