    • RE: Progressive Entry Question

      "Indicator appear" should detect only times when certain buffer goes from 0 to positive/negative value or from EMPTY_VALUE to positive/negative value.
      Otherwise you can limit trades by time. For example using "Once per bar". After this block everything can happen 1 time per bar, as it's name says.

    • RE: Problem with custom indicator ex5

      108 and 117 are at the top.

      At the same time... if you use different Group number, this is like having different EAs, so in this case you can control 2 strategies at the same time in the same EA. This is the idea of the Group number.

    • RE: Problem with custom indicator ex5

      If you want it 1-3-9-27, then this is Martingale with factor x3.

      You have Strategy 1 and Strategy 2. Now because of the settings in "No position is running", especially in 115 and 125, you got two positions at a time, one from Strategy 1 and right after that second one out of Strategy 2. This depends on the numbers of blocks 108 and 117, in the case 108 runs first so Strategy 1 runs first.

      If you fix blocks 115 and 125, then Strategy 2 does not work at all, because now it mirrors Strategy 1 in the upper part (from the first condition to "No position is running").

      So I don't know, it works in the way it is build, I don't see bugs or something.

      With so many different Buy and Sell blocks, better use their Comment section, and you will see the problems easier, like in this picrute: http://prntscr.com/4dyfgc

    • RE: Set "Current market" for next blocks

      This is the idea, but if you want to check if it's working correctly, place some Alert message block after that one

    • RE: Assistance With Custom Indicator

      Use "Indicator tester" block to check if the indicator buffers can be used. If they can... use them. The "Condition" block is working fine.

      Only pink blocks and the pink category in "Condition" needs "For each Trade". Break even point does not need it at all, as it has the loop closed inside.

    • RE: Set "Current market" for next blocks

      No, this block runs because of the current market where the EA is placed, and for that single run it causes the next block connected to it to run as many times as many market there are defined. At any iteration it sets the default Market parameter to different market.

      There is no system that listens to multiple markets at the same time and reacts on each one individually. Well, adding the same EA on multiple charts works that way 🙂

    • RE: Modify Stop Loss On Previous Candle Close

      I'm not sure about the meaning of the question, but to limit things in one bar - "Once per bar"

    • RE: Modify Stop Loss On Previous Candle Close

      By the way some connection is missing between blocks 25 and 26 🙂

      Previous bar is already finished, the value should be the same. The only thing is that there is no need to recalculate the same thing again and again... if you have backtest speed considerations...
      "Once per bar" makes things faster in this case.

      But before "modify stops" better use "For each Trade" 🙂

    • RE: Stop Recalculations Glitching

      Now check this: https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-loop-how-it-works 🙂

      In MT4 you can have 1, 2, 3.... 100 trades at the same time. So when you want to do something with one of them, you must point to the right one. That's why I always recommend to use "For each Trade" block before using any other pink block from the same category.

    • RE: candle comparing

      I prefer to tell you how to deal with indicators 🙂

      You can check any indicator if it works at all... using "Indicator tester" block. Like here: https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-indicator-tester

      There are few possible values

      • some value that is biiiig and long, this number means that at the moment that buffer is... not used, inactive, zero. Also known as EMPTY_VALUE
      • 0 - some indicators use this to hide the indicator from the chart
      • something between 0 and EMPTY_VALUE
      • something negative

      If you have the same value all the time, let's say the EMPTY_VALUE, then the indicator does not use it's buffer properly or you have to change something - try with Candle ID. Often indicators work on the previous candles, not on the current one.

      Try with some block from Indicators category. For example "Indicator appear". This should detect the moment when the indicator appear on the chart... in case the indicator shows some arrow. If it is MA type (always appeared), this block does not work for you.

      Use "Draw arrow" to check if some block passes. You will see arrows in the places where the block passes.

    • RE: Stop Recalculations Glitching

      Hold the mouse over any block and ? will appear - click on it. Or right-click on a block and go to "Information". Or click on "Help" on the main site, where you will see very simple list of the main 3 outputs, and what each one means: https://fxdreema.com/documentation/

    • RE: Stop Recalculations Glitching

      Condition = If. If something... This is a check, not an action. Please, look at the examples!

    • RE: Stop Recalculations Glitching

      If we are talking for CONQUERER 3, there is nothing in there for SL, trades are created without SL/TP, and there is nothing else to modify it later.
      The same with CONQUERER... and I think something is missing in the Buy now block.

      There is something wrong with these two. There are two block groups that finish with "Condition"... why... no reason here. I told you that there are some rules.

      1. Under "on Tick" the blocks on top level are run on every tick. Top level... this is when nothing is connected to their input, but they are connected to another blocks from their output(s).
      2. Totally disconnected blocks are not included to the final project. It's the same if they are not there.
      3. When a block does what it is designed to do, it goes to it's orange output... or to the other output, depending on what is the block. If there is a block connected to one of the activated outputs, it runs immediately.
      4. If there are 2 or more blocks connected from the same output, the first one to run is the one with lower ID number. Everything is synchronous.

      Look here to see which block runs first: https://fxdreema.com/demo/blocks-execution-order
      And here to see the basic events: https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-events
      And here for more basic examples: https://fxdreema.com/examples

      The problem with OR blocks is that they are not supposed to be used that way. There are some rules. Check this one: https://fxdreema.com/demo/blocks-execution-order

    • RE: self updating/refreshing grid, compare two groups of trades

      What's wrong with the trailing stop block, it can work with virtual stops as well 🙂

      On the Buy side, when the price is going up block 402 passes often (better use > in it), but then when the price starts to fall down it does not pass. You want to modify "atr_stop_buy_grid" when needed, but check it all the time in order to close trades.

      The answer: Break the connection between 403 and 404 🙂

    • RE: Scripts

      I think Scripts work. No one complained lately, but not many use it, so...
      You can try it anyway, for small experiments like this it's totally free.

    • RE: .dll in some Indicators

      Yes, fxDreema reads the .mq4 file but only that part where input parameters are defined. It does not include the indicator itself in the final EA, it does work with it, only gets some information once and that's all. Optionally you can manually input that information, but it's faster to upload the file so fxDreema can read what is needed - this is the only idea 🙂

      In the past it was possible to read this data from .ex4 files, but now everything is encrypted and even this data is not cisible from there. But .dll files have nothing to do with input parameters, so... not needed.

    • RE: Stop Recalculations Glitching

      http://prntscr.com/4c6te4
      This is the same as just checking if one of the values is > than the other. You don't need this Formula.
      Also somewhere I saw "OR" blocks... in general these are also not needed. Especially in serial connection like this: http://prntscr.com/4c6u66

      That option "% of Equity => Lots" is some simple calculation, which means that if you have 1000 dollars, 100% will equal to 0.01 lots, (when 1 lot is 100000). In this case 2% is something very very small and the minimum will be always taken.

    • RE: candle comparing

      Indicators produce numeric values for the EA, so the EA have to check those values in some way or another, and make decisions what to do with them. Because custom indicators are so different, first you need to know what values your custom indicator is giving to the EA and then use them properly. Use "Indicator tester" block to check indicator buffers if you don't know what they return to the EA. Then... depends on what needs to be done... Condition block(s) or some block from "Indicators" section.

      What means breakeven for.... I guess running orders. Something like this maybe: https://fxdreema.com/shared/5MJFmst2d

    • RE: I need to specify the lowest low since entry

      What, if you have buy trade to place it's stop at the lowest price since the trade was created? I think I'm missing something, because doing this is basically closing the trade right from the beginning or pushing SL further and further so it can't be reached (at least until the EA is removed).

      If you want to place SL to the lowest value back in the history (for some time), then something like this: http://prntscr.com/4c34n8
