Yes I saw one of your posts in which you warn about the fact the Strategy tester is not always reliabale, and if I rememeber correctly the main isue was with 1 minute time frames and that 5 minutes and up should be ok...?

Anyway, I'm past the days of buying "black box" EAs. Today I have the knowledge to design my own EAs and the methods for that are either using FXdreema or hiring a codder. I prefer the first method for many obvious reasons but again time is an important factor for me at the moment.
I will start having a look on your documentation.
Thanks again

ok doctor got it.
Defintely being able to make my own EAs quickly is a great thing however I can see that it will require me considerable amount of time to learn how to do it, which makes it a chalenge in these bussy days.
Are there any guides or manuals or recommendations where should I start?

Ok I will have a look.
And if I understand correctly the other functionalities and features that I mentioned are possible to achieve with fxdreema? At the moment yes or no answer will be sufficient. Thanks again.

Hi,

I'm a newbie to fxDreama. I didn't think I will be able to build my EA but the positive feedbacks on fxDreema convinced me to give a try.
But before investing the time required for learning to produce my EA I'd like to know if it's at all possible:
I will use my own indicator, which already gives signals (arrows). Every signal comprises of two arrows, so Up signal is 2 arrows and down signal is 2 arrows.
What I want to do is as follows:

1. For Up signal for example. Say the indicator prints the first arrow (under BAR A lets call it) and then prints the second arow (under BAR B). Then I want the EA to enter a trade not immediately but when price retraces back to to X pips from the close or open price of BAR A (where X is user configurable in pips).
2. There will be condition that if price exceeds the high of BAR B by Y pips before retracing then operation is cancelled and trade will not be enetered.
3. There will be additional filters taken from other indicators such that if indicator A returns True then take the trade and if returns false dont take the trade.
   There will be number of such filters and each one can be activated separtely by the user.
4. Stop Loss- Z pips behind low of BAR A where Z is user configurable.
5. While in an open trade and we get opposite signal close the trade.
6. Take profit as a multiply of BAR A (full range of BAR A or body range- user configurable).
   Next phase of take profit will be to use some values from SUP/RES indicators.

I will greatly apprecaite any comments and a quick bullets assistance of how to get started.
