I programmed it in such a way, so that the EAs doesn't care about the settings of the broker. Instead, it can use its own settings for how much is 1 pip for a given symbol. Look at the settings here:

Well, if the reason is to not open lot of trades, the easiest way is to have "Once per bar" somewhere above the Buy/Sell block. You can set different timeframe in this block.

Another way is to have "For each Trade" (or Closed Trade, it depends) with "not more than..." set to 1, so only the last trade is loaded, and then "check age" and then the Buy/Sell block.

In the last picture are you sure you want blocks 5, 6 and 7 to be below the Buy now block? I hope you know that Buy now doesn't run on every tick, so 5 also does't.

Anyway, to check whether some block passes or not, simply connect say Draw Arrow after that block and look at the chart for arrows.

And what was the reason?

I think that the EA you made is working. I might also want to try this block "Indicator moves within limits". Or maybe this concept: https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-wait-crossovers

I guess that I should make a block like "Order price modified", but I think that the existing "Order stops modified" also detects that event... because when you are moving the price, you are normally moving the whole order.

The code in question (where the extra , appears) is from
I will check it, but I think it's better to add the indicator in the system and work with it via "Indicators (My Indicators)"

I can get the values of this histogram, but the trend lines and the arrows are printed as objects. You can see this in the source code, there are some ObjectCreate functions in there. So you can't work with the buffers for these objects.

There is no "after", even the "Indicator moves within limits" block looks at the past and uses the history candles to check these values. So all blocks are normally working in the present moment with history data. And it looks that you wrote that you want that.

I found where the problem originates and I think I fixed it, but I'm a little bit afraid to upload the new changes that I have (there are other changes as well, not only this), because the last time I broke few people's projects. So after that I decided to first work on the website locally (my local working copy of the website that I use often) and when everything works fine for few days, to upload.

I will fix this. The lower option is for that Status thing, yes

I downloaded the .mq4 file from the first link, I added it to "My Indicators" and I got 4 input parameters, not only 3

Then I checked the indicator with Trace and I think it works well. It's not the fastest indicator, but the pink line from Trace matches the indicator line exactly:

Error messages? Another browser works? What exactly means "does not save"?

I don't know how the indicators works, but I don't care, because I know how indicators are used by the EA in general. The normal way is to read the data from their output buffers. If there is no data there and the indicator only draws objects on the chart, then we can only work with these objects. So it depends on how the indicator works

@drayzen said in Is this ok?:

I get a lot of errors in the Journal which I have no idea what they're meaning, and for some reason it's got a Variable in MT4 inp10_VolumePercent that I have no idea where it's come from...?

I only have an idea what these errors mean. They are not because of the EA, but because of the ticks data. You probably know that MT4 has data for each timeframe - M1, M5, M15 and so on... When you are testing on H1 let's say, data from lower timeframes is used. But sometimes we have periods of missing data and I think the problem is because of this. It could be something else, I don't know how exactly the backtest works, but the problem is for sure because of the quality of the ticks data.

When the signal is no longer true? But what kind of signal is this?

If you are talking about the comment, the attribute that every order has, I'm afraid that you can't change it. Only in OrderSend() we can set that "comment" parameter (https://docs.mql4.com/trading/ordersend). For partial close OrderClose() is used, but as you can see, there is no "comment" parameter there - https://docs.mql4.com/trading/orderclose

I don't know. I never used copiers and I don't know how they work

@eklonsousa, you had only 1 custom indicator in "My Indicators". It looks that this created the problem somehow. I added another custom indicator in your list and the problem is no more. I will check why this happens tomorrow. Everyone else - keep at least 2 custom indicators in the list for now

Thank you
