@l-andorrà Candle ID would be 1 on each condition or 0?

@jstap I want all conditions check each tic, once they are all met I want it to open a trade.

Would I just use candle ID 0?

I guess I had one more step in creating the link. lol

This EA waits until the next bar to open a trade once the two conditions are met. I have it in the "On Tick" section so I thought it would go through the whole process every tick.

How do I make it trade as soon as the conditions are met?

FYI: the second condition is from an indicator that is not on the chart but in its own window. Not sure if that matters but it was something I had thought about.

@l-andorrà that's what I'm thinking too. I think ill try a download from a different broker too.

If you've never had that problem, where did you download your version of MT4?

I try different pairs because iv'e found that if I use the same pair for multiple tests in a row I start getting results that aren't true. Like 95% win rates.

So I try different pairs after 3 or 4 tests.

The problem has continued to get worse. I've thought about uninstalling it and cleaning up all the files and maybe trying to download it from a different broker.

I've dug through alll the system files and delete all the files that are created from testing and files created in the different brokers
.

After using my strategy test a few times it stops working. On the visual mode it stops taking trades and on the non visual mode the green bar goes half way and stops.

When I first started using the tester I could test for a whole year in a couple of minutes.

I empty all the history, log and broker files before I start testing, which usually helps for four or five tests than it all just goes to crap again.

Any ideas??

I've looked through multiple threads on this, but I am still not sure how to find the input parameters of an indicator that I have. It is .ex4 file so when I open it in the MT4 editor I on see Chinese or something.

I want to open trades based on the "colors" 3 and 4, mabey 4 or 5 candles after appear on the chart. They show up white on the chart

Thanks

@l-andorrà is there a good tutorial on how to use the "my indicator"? Like how to find enumerators and input parameters?

@l-andorrà well that was simple

@l-andorrà how would you set up a "close all trades" at 23:59 GMT

@l-andorrà I got it. Each condition block needs a different candle ID and they need to be in descending order. Check it out.

Thanks for brainstorming on this with me.

Still nothing. I tried to use the sample https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-3ma, but every time I try to download it I get a message saying I can't download it as a basic user which I'm not.

If i try to build it on the main builder I'm having a hard time changing one of the things in the condition block, and the same with the "modify variable" block

Condition: Value - Numeric- BuyorSell
i don't know how to change it from a number to BuyorSell. I've right clicked it and typed it in but it doesn't change

yes. (hand to face emoji)

@l-andorrà I still don't get one trade on the strategy tester.

No they wouldn't happen all at once. It would happen over five candles. I did delete the "once per candle" block. I''m guessing that wasn't helping.

Here's my thoughts:

1. the candle closing below the 200ema ensures that a new but trade doesn't open just because the candle closes above the 200ema.
2. I want three confirming candle closes above the 200ema before a trade is ordered. Then opposite for sells

I've altered the setup a bit to show a little more of what I want. I know ill have to reorder the blocks. Instead of 1, 4, 10, 16 it will be 1, 2, 4, 3,.

What does specifying the candle ID help with??

I want to have four consecutive conditions happed before a trade. I tried following the "Expert Advisor with 3 Moving Averages" setup, but that nor what I have set up now makes one trade.

On the "Buy" side I made the description pretty clear, but I want three candles above the moving average before a trade?

Do I have to select "Allow DLL Imports" option for my EA to work?

I set up a VPS through MQL5 and I read that DLL is not allowed with their servers. Is that true? Is there a better VPS that I should look at?

Thanks in advance.
