Only open new trade if last trade is closed x minutes before

[EAbaer]

Hello!

I have an EA like this:

Indicator XY = Y --> No trade --> Buy now

I would like to only open a trade if the last trade was closed 10 or more minutes ago.

How can i do this?

Thank you very much.

This is easy using a variable.

For instance, a variable called minutes

• on every minute, modify minutes to minutes + 1
• OnTrade -> position closed -> modify minutes to 0
• now you can check from the variable minutes how many minutes have passed since last close

Thank you.

Is there any other possibility, for example „check last trades“?

I will suggest this combination of blocks:

The first block loads the last closed trade. Then "check age" checks the close time of that trade. And then after "check age" you do whatever you want.
