@jstap But candle ID is not where the signal appears? For example, i have candle ID 1, that means in the candle before, the arrow appears. Am i not right?

Sorry for the delay. I was trying to find another indicator that does the same of this one, good double tops and bottoms(PZ double top and bottom), but i couldn't find it, so i came again back to try to make this one work.

For right now, what i know is that buffer 0 is the red painting (it paints a red area), and after that the arrow appears when it is confirmed, and that one is buffer 1, that i have in candle 1.

But i can't find the buffers for buy. The developer told me that they are stored in the same buffer, but in different shifts, so it should be another shift for buy in buffers 0 and 1.

@hasanrockefeller Hi friend. Where is the shift option? I can not see it.

My indicator has buffer 0 shift 0 for sells, and buffer 0 shift 1 por buys. That is the problem.

@l-andorrà said in How can i add a shift parameter in a buffer of a custom indicator?:

@acastilla You will need a programmer to do that. No fxDreema block can do that, I'm afraid.

It is a shame. Thanks!!

Nobody knows? If not how can i change that in the source code?

@ibrah360ai said in How can i add a shift parameter in a buffer of a custom indicator?:

If your indicator is the mq4 file you should read them and change the condition inside the code and if is ex4 format you need to read the buffers in the chart when the indicator appers after the disissions go back to fxdreema with two right buffers which contain tge right value.. And .. Start linking the blocks

No, i don't have the source code. That is the problem. I have to do it manually, and i don't know how to do it because it is not a normal buffer. It is a shift parameter inside the buffer, and i don't know how to do that. I think it has to be a way. Let's see if somebody knows. Thanks!

Hi, I have a custom arrow indicator. Buffer 1 holds two values: 0 for buy and 1 for sell. I see that i can add the buffer, but i do not know how i can select the shift parameter inside the buffer. I see in the builder's options in fxdreema "0: Buffer 0", so to work with the EA i should be able to select "1: Buffer 0", and i don't know how can i do it that way in "My indicators".

Anybody knows?

Thanks in advance.

trade tab

Ohh! This seems to be the solution. Testing!

And thanks!

@keanzoe Because i want to close all trades of the grid after a take profit has been hit. That is the problem. The EA keeps looking in "for each closed position", and close all trades. I am going to try with "pips away from open price" to see if that works better.

It seems the logic keeps looking in "For each closed position", so that is the reason that after the first take profit the EA does not work anymore, because the EA looks again there and then it closes all the trades. Anyone knows how to solve this?

Ok, the problem is in the right module: For each closed position. I am trying to find a solution, but right now i couldn't do it.

I did in other way, but the same error. The EA stop working properly after the first take profit is hit.

@keanzoe Yes. And it is wrong, because after the first take profit is hit, the EA stop working properly and send a lot of crazy trades.

Could you please tell me a better way to do it?

@l-andorrà

Not exactly, if one trade hit the take profit, all the trades will be close. That logic is alrealy place, that is the part that it seems to be working. in the shared link you can see it placed at the right.

@jstap The shared link is in the first post. There i explain a little, and in the third post i explained more detailed. If you need more explanation, please tell me.

But: 1st trade: 60 pips TP, -30 pips= 2nd trade in opposite direction at the first. For the 2nd trade the same: 60 pips TP, -30 for trade in opposite direction, and you can go on with more trades with the same logic.

@jstap said in I need help with my EA, after the first take profit:

I think you need to decide how to place the second trade, you can use pink blocks Pips Away to place another trade, or place a pending trade?

I did not know about that block. But how can you assign that block to a specific trade?

I was thinking thay maybe the logic is wrong. Which will be the better way to assign a number or a name to an specific trade, then get the price, and check a specific amount of negative pips to place the next trade?

@l-andorrà Thanks for your answer. How would yo do it then?

The explanation. First trade has a take profit of 60, and if it reaches "stop loss" 30 (not a real stop loss, but the place for the next trade), then it sends the second trade. For the second trade is the same logic, take profit 60 (if it reaches it closes all the trades), and 30 for "stop loss" that it is not a real stop loss, but it is the place for the next trade in 30. And it goes on if you place more trades. Always 60 take profit, -30 for the next trade of the grid.

Hello. I hope somebody can help me again. I really appreciate the help you always get here.

Ok, i am trying to create some sort of grid EA, but not with pending orders (because it can be read).

So right now, just for testing, i have code only three trades. The first one it is placed when we have a moving average crossover, and then it has 60 pips take profit, and with "check profit unrealized" i have -30 pips just to place an order in the opposite direction. If the market goes to the place of the first trade, it will send another one in the same direction. The logic is working the first time (2023.10.01 to 2023.11.01 is the backtesting so you can see what i see. GMT+3 EUR USD), and after ten o'clock, it does the logic properly, but then, after it closes with the take profit, the logic does not work properly. It started sending trades without take profit or respecting the "grid".

Can somebody take a look and tell me what is failing?

Maybe it has the logic in the memory at it has been not reseted?

@l-andorrà I already did it. I meant that the current candle reach with the retractment at least 50% of the previous candle. I finally did it, just making another variable for the previous candle high, and then rest the pip amount that i got it the way i described in my first post. Thanks either way!

Hi. I want to send the trade based of a retracement percentage of the previous candle. For example, 50%. How can i do that? I searched but i didn't see a way to do it. I tried by using formulas, getting the total size in pips of the candle, then multiplying by 0.5, and there i get a value that i can rest to the total size of the previous candle, but i have the value in pips of the retracement, and i don't know how to apply it to the current price, because is a exact price, and i have the other value in pips. Maybe one of you knows a proper way to do it. Thanks in advance.
