@tipsywisdom I get you. Thanks for your thoughts... will play around with this some more.

Why is this indicator taking the order on the wrong place? What am I doing wrong? Why is it never just straight forward... Geez! Always a struggle... need help please.
The indicator: 0_1638894880799_PTL (2).mq5
and I need it to just take buy order on the correct place, which it does not!!! That is the 3rd blue candle moving upwards.. but it does not!!

Re: Some Insight Please

My apologies to @l-andorrà .. I never saw or got a message that you replied. I think it is just respectful to acknowledge the fact that someone actually took their valuable time to answer to my plea... Sorry brother

@l-andorrà brother.. I do not use mt4 but the last time roar explained I have to change the lot-size here: Where do you change it?

@alphaomega Wow! .. after days I found the problem, why this trailing did not want to work!!!

I never specify the group number of the condition how the trade was opened in the first place. In other words the trailing condition followed only group 1 the sell orders that was opened.

@ontradingx I have asked all the correct question as taught but still no joy here.. Why would that be?

@ontradingx Excellent!!

@ontradingx Thank you for this wonderful detailed explanation!! Would you please take this post of yours and make in the Tutorial thread, because many people have problems with this and will miss this great tutorial because they will not search this post name under "I dont understand trailing stop". I myself just by luck stubled upon this post as the search option is not that efficient or maybe I am using it wrong.

@jstap Good Morning.. I did like you suggested but then the modification of the TP does not calculate.

@alphaomega This is likely because the custom block is using data from the modify block to do calculations, try moving modify above custom. It is also possible that the way you had it is how it needs to be

This is what I have been saying to you at the beginning of the post:: There are no repeated blocks!

@jstap Ok ... on the first run the following problems occurred:

The first pink block For each trade works out the variables

2nd pink block For each trade works out the mql5 code which is the average of orders

If you remove the first pink block For each trade, like this

you mess with the variables loads and then you get this results.

@jstap Thanks so much ... I will take the indicator out and then run a few tests with it this way.. Will give you feedback

@jstap Please make the blocks as you suggest and then post a picture because I am confused of what you are saying... Thanks in advance

@jstap Thank you ..that is a better answer. I am not a coder so please be specific as I am trying to walk in a totally unfamiliar land here. Thank you for understanding

Now for the repeated blocks by which I think you meant For each Buy Position:
The 2 blocks are doing 2 different jobs and so I do not think it can mess with any of the algorithm of the ea.
But you are correct .. You can use one For Each Position block doing that job. I just left it like that because I took it from an example Roar gave us.
Thank you for your input and patience

@jstap I ask you for detail.. you give me a broad spectrum? That blocks are not repeated if you look closely you will find that the blocks are different group no,s.. Please be specific.

@jstap Thank you for your input... Could you be more specific about repeated blocks... which ones? Thank you

@ladydolares there you go... I misunderstood you the first time.. I thought you had an indicator.. lol

@william-1 Trailing should work by itself.. I did write a email to the creator Fxdreema about this problem. It use to work 100%, dunno whats going on now. Next would be to create a variable to run a loop check your profit... You can also try to work with profit unrealized block. I used it before... it is not a trailing stop function but at least you can set the ea to not lose your profit if you have a lot of positive and negative trades in one go.

@ladydolares Lets try, share your indicator please

Hi ..... you will need to count the candles till your condition are met.. This is a code made by Jstap in area 20 to do this counting. Maybe it will work for you here:::::

Hi Folks
I am adding a martingale expert that I was working on. It is a combination of miro1360 and roar magical tutorials. I just thought if at all you have time maybe everyone can contribute and add their advice and build here as-well?.. Good luck!
