Thanks a lot to both of you, I will definitely try that

@roar I found the problem, I had a demo account at MT5 it self and that was the problem, it did not work on that. Then I installed MT5 on a different computer with a other broker account and that did not work in the first place. But it seems that that broker has a different time on his server and when I changed 'Server time' to 'local time' it did work (also server time would work but I have to chance the time in the EA accordingly)

Thanks a lot for your trouble!

@roar thats even more weird that you dont have a problem, I have those buttons checked. I tried at another pc with freshly installed mt5 on it but also no trade

@roar I tried different time filters already but none seems to work

@roar thanks for your suggestion but that also doesn't work. I find it also very strange because running it through backtest just works fine.

@roar yes I know that, but I have tried it on MT5 on SP500 and EUR/USD with plenty of ticks in that minute

the one I shared is not the real EA because I made the shared EA as simple as can be to test if the time filter works.

Hey I made an EA that triggers 1 trade a day at 1 certain time. I have made one and backtested it and then it worked fine. But now I let the EA run on a "live" demo account so real time but the EA does not trade. Does anybody know what I do wrong?

Hello,

I need help with the following; I want an EA that can draw a trendline or channel. Is it possible to create a EA with fxdreema that can draw trendlines automatically?
I looked on this forum but I saw a lot of contradictory answers and on de fxdreema builder I see a block called "draw line" and "draw channel" and I tried that but can not get it to work in strategy tester mt5.

If it is not possible to make such an EA, I have downloaded a free 'trendline indicator' but how to get a indicator not listed in the fxdreema builder to work in the mt5 strategy tester? Because I can only select a EA in the tester and not any additional indicators.

A lot of thanks in advance

@roar I finally figured out the problem, I had my demo balance on 1000$ that for some reason thats to low to put on 2 orders. Indeed when I change the balance higher the condition block with the buy and sell order attached worked.

Thanks a lot for your help

@roar i tried backtesting it on demo and only 1 of both gets active

A hedge account so that should not be the issue

@roar also in theory if you put a larger PT than SL for both the buy and sell order you could make profit. That's what I want to test

Thanks for your reply

I tried that already, I put a simple condition like 2 EMA's crossover as a condition and then a buy and sell to that condition. Also when that didn't work I put the sell under the buy which was connected to the condition and that also didn't work. I also tried copying the condition to make a new set with same condition but sell instead of buy block under it but no succes either

Hello all,

I have kind of a stupid question, how can you make a EA for mt5 that triggers a buy and sell at the same time when conditions are met? I spend the whole evening trying all kind of blocks but none seems to work.

Has anyone ideas?

My idea is to look how a strategy would perform if you had a long and a short on when certain condition are met and let 1 of them run with a PT or trailing stop.

Thanks in advance
