Wow, Impressive! That's a LOT of food for thought. I will need some time to sudy it and, more importantly, understanding it.

Once again, thank you very much for this outstanding help support. This forum is priceless!

Again, thank you very much for your impressive help. You're an expert! I see Mr. Fxdreema is very busy. Fortunately you are solving my problems before my monthly fees expires.

Now I would like to seize the opportunity of your kind attention to ask for my final and most complicated question about my EA . I don't find any example related to what I want to do, so I would appreciate your knowledge to give me some hints about this:

1. I want to run my EA on several charts simultaneously.
2. I want a "pip counter" (sorry, I don't know the correct word in English).
3. The counter should count how many net pips are being accumulated every day considering all trades previously closed and those open now.
4. Its function would be: close all current trades (no matter if they are in profit or not right now) if the overall net pips today is X (a constant)

This means that, for example if X=40 pips, and today 2 trades were closed with a net total loss of 30 pips, then the total number of pips of other trades during the day should be 70 pips in profit for the condition to be met. In other words, I need a kind of "memory space" within the EA in order to count all pips accumulated today from all charts to be checked at every moment.

Some hints, please? :simple_smile:

Can't you see the first top block "Time filter"? I can see thruogh the link I embedded. Can you please confirm you can see it? Maybe there's a problem with the link.

Great. It worked!! Now I have a new problem. I added a timer block to specify when the EA will be active.

Problem is that I can't activate the EA on the MT4. I don't know why but I can't select it to put it into a chart (and yes, the Autotrading button in the platform is activaded). Could you please tell me why? It looks like this:

Thank you very much for your help. I see fxdreema is very busy now.

Apparently, buy conditions are working normally, but wierdly sell conditions are not. Images included:

Daily conditions met:

4H conditions met:

1H conditions met:

But no sell is traded at 15 min timeframe

Please notice that the EA is at "working" status but no trade has been opened.

I built it following your suggestions. Please take a look.

I tested it on demo account but it doesn't work correctly. Sometimes the trade is open and sometimes it's not (even condirtions are met). The weirdest it does i opening a sell trade when buy conditions are met!

What am I doing wrong?

Ok. Please let me check I understood your screenshot.

1. The "once per bar" block is specified only to the timeframe that will be checked. In my example it was the "current" one, ie, 1H.
2. The "once per bar" block is put at the top of the sequenced orders and not between the 4H and 1H condition blocks.
3. All actions are specified on candle ID 1, is the last completed candle.

Is that right?

Interesting. I'll take a look. Now I would like to ask which blocks should I use to do the following:

1. My EA will open several trades at different charts.
2. Some orders will be won and other lost.
3. I would like to have something like a " pip counter" (sorry, I don't know the proper word in English). What I mean is that ther should be something counting how many pips have been got today. So that when a previously specified amount has been reached, all open trades right now are closed.

Let me put an example. I want to get 40 pips today, no matter in which chart. The sum of my two fisrt trades lost 30 pip. Now I have four trades open. The overall result of all of them right now is 70 winning pips. That's exactly my target for today so all trades are closed. Can you suggest me how can that be done?

Thanks in advance.

I think I remember the answer to my first point was something like this:

[https://fxdreema.com/shared/FLqLpaaIc](link url)

Basically I want to open a trade when price is above/below a Moving Average on three timeframes simultaneously: daily, 4H and hourly. The EA has to check at the beginning of every 1H bar if conditions at superior timeframes are met.

Is this the way to do it?

I can't find any available example on how can several simultaneous trades be managed on % current balance. What I mean is that I don't know how can I controll that, let's say, four open trades (no matter if ther are winning or losing) close immediately once a previously set number of pips or % balance is achieved.

Any help?

I am going to create a new EA and I found how it could be done in thread I can't find right now (before the forum interface was changed). Any help would be appreciated. In that thread it was explained how the following could be done:

1. For each chart in which the EA is running, conditions applying to timeframes above the current one were taken into account in it now.

2. No matter how many charts the EA is running into simultaneously, once a specified number of pips is reached from the total trades open right now, all of them were closed.

Thank you.

It worked!!! Thank you very much.

@miro1360

I'm sorry, but I cant find that "Trade closed" block. Where can I find it? Additionally, I guess there can be an additional problem by using it. What will happen when previous closed trades are listed at the platform? Will this block find them immediatey after launching my order and then will rapidly close it?

Thank you

@fxDreema said in New option to my EA. Help required.:

Your project has all input parameters to 0, so instead of putting pending orders it gives tons of errors. I don't want to assume what your input parameters are. There is also no real TP.

But be careful in "pips-away from the open price" block. This block can behave very differently with different settings. The first parameter is described (click on its title). "Pips away" is also important, its value can be positive, or negative if you want to detect movement in the other direction (when the price is going towards SL).
Also "Open price belongs to" is important when the block is working with trade that was result from partial close or it was added to another trade.

Look for errors! Again, this EA doesn't work for me, but not because of the way blocks are connected.

Let me explain. All input parameters are 0 because I change them manually case by case. This is why I call it a semiautomatic EA. The truth is that is is a trade launcher with a moving SL, no more than that. And I can tell you it works perfectly with no errors so far. I agree there is no real TP. I call it so as an internal way to structure it. It's just a partial close. Once the partial close is reached, the SL is moved and the EA is terminated.

What you suggest about pips away accepting negative values is very interesting. Can I insert an integer negative number at that parameter? If so this can be what I'm looking for.

Thank you.

Hi all,

I successfully created this semiautomatic EA designed to partially close a trade when the TP is reached, then the SL is moved to break even and finally the EA itself is terminated. Lot size, price level (pending order only) and TP/SL distances are manually inserted.

https://fxdreema.com/shared/5nQEv0R9e

I want to add a new feature but I don't know how to deal with it. When I designed it I didn't take into account a situation that happened to me recently. When the price reaches the SL before having reached the TP, a new trade is immediately launched but I don't want that to be done. I would like the EA is terminated when that situation is done.

I tried to use the "For each closed trade" globe, but it doesn't work. A new trade is launched and the EA is terminated immediately after!

Any suggestion?

@miro1360

Great! Thank you

Quick question I can't find in the help section. How can I duplicate or rename projects? I want to duplicate one to add some minor changes withous having to copy block by block. Additionally I want to rename others, but I can't find the option to do it.

Thanks in advance

Finally I can confirm the reason for all those offquotes was the VPS I was using. Same EA and same broker with a diffent VPS provider and...no off quotes at all!! So once again Fxdreema was right and I was wrong

Thank you for your support.

Just curious. What broker did you use?

No problem. I send the to you via private mail.
