There has been a ton of people wondering how to use "% of Equity/Balance" to get a Lot Size without using a Stop Loss. What I think people actually need is a way to set a % target and have the Lot Size scale after the Target has been met and loop back into itself to continue to scale.

Yep, wasn't thinking this through correctly. I changed it to this and used the correct values and it obviously worked. Thank you for the nudge. I needed that!

I finished majority of these a while ago. They're all based on wick and candle body percentages and all operate 100%. This was a fun project to do in the MQL5 Custom Block building studio.

RE: Close (partially) block with Buys and Sells managed separately?posted in Questions & Answers
I’m sorry @CAVINCENT, my EA doesn’t use any indicators at all. It’s not a grid strategy either. It’s time based and everything functions flawlessly except for closing trades after the Close (partials) block executes. My concept is quite sound but I believe this is a programming bug of some sort. When only Buys are on the chart, everything is fine. When both buys and sells are on the chart, my break even module doesn’t work.

RE: Close (partially) block with Buys and Sells managed separately?posted in Questions & Answers
I've managed to collect enough info from cross posts to determine that my "Close (partials) Module" and my "Break Even Module" are conflicting. Why? No clue. But the way this is triggered is if TP1 is hit, it modifies a variable to True that allows a condition to be used like a gate. The Break Even module can then pass as a condition and if the Equity of the Bucket of Positions (Blue for Buys, Red for Sells) (Also stored the values separately in their own variable) for Group #1 Buys <= 'Account Balance', Closes Group #1 Buy Positions only. BUT! When I select the whole Break Even module, turn those blocks off, Close (partials) will work normally. When I turn all those blocks back On, Close (partials) doesn't function correctly at all. It closes partials back to back. The history shows it being closed in 2 parts. But, I have a Counter (pass once) block in condition tree only allowing it to pass once. So, I am stumped. I've been running this EA from April 4th to Current and this EA is profitable with Close (partials) set to 0. I would like to see these modules function together for testing purposes. And I'm sure this would be a very powerful addition to the Forum if solved correctly.

RE: Close (partially) block with Buys and Sells managed separately?posted in Questions & Answers
The Stop Loss formula works correctly @CAVINCENT but I wanted to check and see if my eyes weren’t seeing something correctly. I use this same Close Partials module in a different EA and it functions flawlessly BUT there’s only Buys or Sells on the chart at 1 time. So, I was a bit puzzled why managing them both separately all at the same time would be any different.
And I will do that @jstap. Thanks for looking this over.

Close (partially) block with Buys and Sells managed separately?posted in Questions & Answers
I'm struggling to get this EA to Close Partials correctly when there's both Buys and Sells on the chart. I have an input for TP1, TP2 and TP3 and in the visual tester, I have witnessed it taking Partials but there is still something that causes a trade in the opposite direction to be closed. For Example;
If there's 3 Buys and 2 Sells, The Buys will eventually come into the profit target of 4 Pips collectively, then it should only Close Partials of the Buy Trades. Same goes with the Sells. If the Close Partials input is set to 0, TP1 will close the proper trades. Can you guys see something that I can't. Below is a copy of the Project. Let me know what you think and thanks in advance.It shouldn't be having those massive spikes down. That tells me it's taking losses when it's not supposed to.

Does this make sense to those that code projects outside of FXDreema?

RE: MT5 Optimizer not working with many FX Dreema EA - RESOLVEDposted in Bug Reports
@roar I understand that might have been the issue. I'll test removing the parameter and see what different errors pop up. Perhaps there's a different fix for this that I don't know anything about.

RE: MT5 Optimizer not working with many FX Dreema EA - RESOLVEDposted in Bug Reports
Good day,
I'm getting an issue compiling this code when it's used in a project. The error states 'DayOfWeek' - cannot convert enum in fxdreema.
So I went into MetaEditor and it's showing me that this line has the error but I can't figure out what it's issue is.


May I please get an assist with this?
Thanks in advance and I greatly appreciate it! -
RE: HAVING PROBLEM WITH CHECK DISTANCE MT5posted in Bug Reports
I see 1 Problem here:
The Block ID's are in an incorrect order. The blocks need to pass in the correct order. Change the Buy Now to "14" (To the left of the physical block where it says Buy now) -
