@youngtreptrader use "Once per minutes" block instead "once per bar"

[Youngtreptrader]

okay i want 2.5 minutes so if i do that it will place two trades in that bar. i only want 1

@youngtreptrader You need to use a 'once per bar' block immediately above the 'buy/sell now' block. That will open one ony trade per bar.

@youngtreptrader You could set up a variable that counts minutes, start the count at the start of a candle (you could count a 1 minute candle), reset just before you start the count, when a condition meets the required number place the trade, on back test it will likely only count minutes if on the 1m chart.

@jstap can u explain how you made the formula and wat is is doing? also can you show this connected to a possible scenerio of trading after the candle open?

[Youngtreptrader]

hello im still not sure how to connect all?

@youngtreptrader Did you try my suggestion? That should avoid more then one trade per bar.

[Youngtreptrader]

yes but it opens ate the beginning of candle and i dont want that

@youngtreptrader Can you please reread what I suggested?. You should put the block immediately above the 'buy now' block, not on top of the whole tree.
