@jstap Oh I see now thanks!

I might be over thinking it. I'll try the "if buy grid and if sell" and swap the buy now sell now it should work...

Thanks for the tip, no doubt I'll be back again

@l-andorrà Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I've figured it out now

This is a really interesting one from Boxxocode, strangely it seemed to work first time and then I added a TP in to close the widening gap it creates from the buy/sell.

Since doing that it now seems to be bugged (even though I've rebuilt from new again. Does metatrader store code on the strategy tester?

The fault in this is it works as intended for the first sell and buy close profit and then does the opposite on the 2nd batch and forever, instead of close at £2 profit it closes £2 at loss??

If someone could test it? Or has already coded it to check?
I've watched the video several times and checked my code and all seems to be as instructed.

Hi does anyone have an idea to allow the break even point only run on the 1st trade and not to run on others?

I tried different links but it still seems to run the block on all trades.

This is a little trade manager for manual entries:

Like this from boxes 7 to 10

But this still doesn't work and allows another trade despite the no trade nearby block?

Maybe using purple/pink FOR EACH CLOSED TRADE, then blue CHECK PROFIT (last closed).
How do I use these to stop the next trade from opening until the next gap (if one trade is still open) and I would need the No Trade to work when both trades are closed?

So in summary it may have more than one open trades on one side but only ever 1 trade on the other...

A time block wouldn't fit with the logic.
Example: Buy/Sell open together and close at x pips profit. If Buy closes at 10 pip another buy should not open, if sell then closes at 10 pip then buy/sell reopens.
If one trade does not close at take profit, the other will. At the next gap which is greater than the TP another buy/sell opens (this works ok from blocks 18 to 29).
The problem is stopping the no trade from blocks 1 to 6 after running trade count is 1. It will open another trade as soon as TP is met.
Hope this makes sense!

@jstap if you could give me another clue? I've tried "for each trade" and "loop break" below the open 1st trades area and also "once per trades" but I'm still at a loss with it?

I know, this is the point I can't figure out as I need no trade to open the buy/sell first?

Hi I'm trying to figure out this problem.

This opens a buy/sell with no trade block. When one closes in profit nothing else should happen until A: the other trade closes in profit (then opens a buy and sell) or B: it goes to the next negative level and opens buy and and sell again.

At the moment it is looping back to the no trade blocks and re-opening a new trade at the last Take Profit level instead of doing nothing.

I can't figure it out as i need no trade to open the trades but I also need the gap level after the trades are open (which is greater than the Take Profit)
