I had this same problem with the fractal indicator but my case was a bit different. You should start by setting the Candle ID to 2 or higher on your Conditions (checking fractals vs bbands). Fractals don't print until a couple candles later.

If you are trying to close trades made manually, I think you need to change your magic start number to zero in the project settings.

I can tell you why I like the local version better... much faster trouble shooting EA's with the MT4 integration. I can have my tester version of MT4 open and just switch to fxdreema, make a change, export the mq4 and ex4 and try again. Way better than going into firefox, making changes in web version, downloading the mq4 and ex4, opening download folder, copying the files, opening the data folder for MT4, pasting the files, assuring Windows that yes I want the files there, and THEN I can go to MT4 and try again.

Great, everything good now! Thanks!

How long do Paypal payments take to go through? I paid for a subscription on June 4 but my fxDreema account has not changed yet.

I knew I was missing something silly! Thank you!

I'm having trouble with a simple EA to trade Fractals. For some reason my sell pending orders keep getting deleted on the next bar after being created.

This is the project: https://fxdreema.com/shared/Thgq5LPte

What is supposed to happen:

For Buys: If a Fractal Up (Candle ID 3) forms above the defined EMA, place a Buy pending order 1 pip above the fractal. If a new Fractal Up is formed prior the first being triggered, then the EA should delete previous Buy orders and place a new order at the new Fractal.

For Sells: The reverse of Buy. If a Fractal Down (Candle ID 3) forms below the EMA, place a Sell pending order 1 pip below the fractal. Again if a new Fractal Down forms prior to the previous order being triggered, it should cancel the previous pending Sell orders and place a new order at the new fractal.

What is actually happening:

Buy orders seem to be working exactly as intended, but for some reason the Sell orders are not. The EA is placing sell orders the way it should, but then for some reason the orders are being deleted on the next candle (unless the order gets triggered immediately). It is probably some silly simple thing, but I can't figure out for the life of me why this is happening. I tried changing Candle ID on the fractals and the EMA (I know I have a different ID on the EMA, but setting it the same as the Fractal seemed to make matters even worse), and even tried starting over from scratch in case I had messed something up, but still the same thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What indicator are you using?

Did you try double clicking on the object? I have managed to build 3 working EA's with fxdreema and I know almost nothing about mql coding. I've tried other similar websites that are supposed to make EA's easy to create but none of them worked, nor were they "easy".
