Multi-symbol variables

[coinmaster]

Unfortunately, in FXdreema is it very tedious and time consuming to convert EAs into multi-symbol because each set of variables needs to be created for each symbol and each block needs to be updated with the currency list.

I think I can work around the block issue by duplicating the EA and using a different "set current market" block for each duplication of the EA.

However the issue of making multiple variable sets for each currency is not solved.

Is it possible in fxdreema to make a custom multi-symbol "modify variable" block?

Like if a variable is placed within the block the values that are updated to the variable are stored in a multi-symbol array?

This way each value of the variable is stored in its own index for its currency type.

Can this be done? I'm not good at coding mql5 but this is such a huge problem that I might need to learn it in order to solve the issue.

The simplest less stressful thing to do is to run the same EA across several symbols.

Do you already know how you're going to close those trades? Are you expecting to be open on several pairs at once? Do you have a cumulative profit planned? If so, that a whole other task to figure out next.

Some ways to do it:

Within the set market block, you can put several symbols just separated by a comma and for each symbol all the blocks will be ran below for that symbol.
You could do several set market blocks as you put, but rather than replicating everything, over and over just do it towards the top half of your EA before your conditions. You could also make several buy and sell blocks for the conditions above and then specify the different symbol in each buy and sell block.

I can't optimize a multi symbol EA on separate symbols.
The whole point of multi-symbol is to maintain statistical significance if there isn't enough trades taken within a single currency.

Also as far as I understand, the "set market" block runs once per tick, on the first currency in the list. Not once per tick on all currencies in the list. So it is effectively useless when used in series.

There's no way getting around the need for a multi-currency "modify variable" block.
My question is, is it possible to be done in the custom block creator? I'll just pay someone to get the job done if it is. But I would really like to know the answer.

@coinmaster You will need a programmer to do the code for that requirement. fxDreema cannot do that, sorry.
