I don't understand what is the idea here. "Buy now" creates a new trade with Open Price equal to (or very close to) the Ask price. Let's say that Ask is 1.0020, so then Open Price will be 1.0020.

In "Buy now" you can obviously set Take-Profit in pips, let's say 7.5 pips. Why pips? Because we are all used to it. This value of 7.5 is nowhere recorded. This value is immediately and automatically converted to 0.00075 and added to the open price, so the actual price level for Take-Profit would be 1.00275.

Then, when the trade exists and you want to get Take-Profit, it's value will be 1.00275. It will not be 7.5. There is no need to add 7.5 to the Open Price, because Take-Profit already exists, it can be read and it's value is 1.00275. Take-Profit is one of the properties of each trade or order and it exists as a price level.

I don't remember seeing such thing in MQL4

I will not fix this indicator even if it's bad. What can I say... you have it, you can check if it works, you decide to use it or not.

If Candle 0 works, work with it. Candle 0 is the current candle. Some indicators have values for that candle, others don't. If you don't have value that you can use for Candle 0, then you can't use the value that is there (EMPTY_VALUE in most cases). If this is the case, yu can probably use the value of Candle 1. But if you don't like it, well, what can I do about it? Indicators are not crystal balls, they only convert history data into lines, histograms or arrows.

Open Price is a value like 1.2345 (price). Take Profit is a value like 10 (pips). If you do 1.2345 + 10, you get 10.2345. But even if we convert that 10 into 0.0010, what is the point? You will have the price level where Take Profit is. TP can be get directly anyway, without any calculations

The moment when its value turns from EMPTY_VALUE or 0 to something different than EMPTY_VALUE or 0. This is one time signal.

Condition checks 2 values. Only when crossover is used, it checks 4 values - 2 from one candle and 2 from another (older candle). But it gives continuous signals. Condition can pass on every tick until the condition is true.

http://prntscr.com/aaw116 "(on trade)..." is not to be used under "on Tick". "(in loop)..." is to be used with "For each Trade" block.

Any numeric value can be stored in a Variable at any time, and then at any time it can be used or modified again - https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-variables

If you want to get min/max/average lot/price/something else from a group of trades/orders/closed trades, I will suggest to use those blocks in "Buckets of Trades and Orders'" category. Each of them prepares a list of trades/orders and then in "Condition -> Buckets of Trades/Orders" some value can be get.

Every type of object has description, but it appears when you hover with the mouse, just like a tooltip. Arrow objects are whatever they are - something like simplified icons, but they don't have labels. If you have labels, these are another kind of objects, but they are not part of arrows.

I have no plans to add more stuff in these blocks or in that category. But this block can at least detect the row of candles, so what remain is to check their sizes. What comes in my mind is that ATR[1] is giving us the total size of each candle. There is one block "Indicator moves within limits" that can be used to check if any of the indicator values for the last N candles is lower than X value.

In a single "Modify Variables" block they are modified from top to bottom

Well, you can try it. If it works - work with it.

Do you want to open anpther Sell at the moment when a new candle is created and the existing Sell has negative profit? And what about Buys?

In "Buy/Sell now" when you use Martingale and you have currently working trades, it first checks the lot size and profit of the newest of them to decide what will be the lotsize of the next one

Your project looks overcomplicated and it has blocks and settings that are wrong. Like the settings in block 20. I even renamed those "Terminal Variables" to "Terminal Variables (This is NOT for Variables)"

Show me what you are doing exactly

My idea is something like this - https://fxdreema.com/shared/dAXJCdzGd
To open martingale trades most of the time and only sometime to open the initial lot size, which resets the martingale lots as well. Because the next lot in the martingale sequence is calculated from the last trade

Or the order way is to work with the settings using some Variable. This is probably the better way, but a bit more advanced

Fixed

Which project it this?

Don't use Constant/Variable in the input field with the box checked
