Yeah I have. This type of grid can survive extremely trending periods (2008, 2014) and you can perhaps start with $300. There was an EA on the market, and has been taken out. Hence why I wanna replicate it.

I was wondering: lets say I open the first trade. is a buy. price goes down... every 100 pips it opens a trade (lets call it StepFactor), fast forward, lets say it opens 10 trades. The price retraces, the last trade becomes a profit and it closes in positive. We could apply a stop loss or a Close trade to whicever trade is negative of 900+ pips. To know these pips, we could apply a multiplication: 10 trades or 9 trades * our StepFactor. Could it work? I don`t know where to put these variables and how to configure those blocks. Could you help me guys?

Whenever I use "For each trade" block, as soon as it trigger the condition to open the second trade, it opens way too many. Doen`t matter the option I set. Blocks are: No trade, buy; add to vol every x pips. Without each trade it works, with each trade it becomes a mess. What can I do? Can you give me an example on how to use properly that block? In the case of multiple trades being opened please...

Thank you. I will try now.

Hello. I found something somewhere before.

So, go on On init (so that when the EA is loaded, it will init and load what you`re about to make): create 3 blocks.

1: Condition. Left operant: Value (boolean). Create a new constant, rename it how you want, but the type (whereas default is Double), has to be "bool". Bool means that can have values True or False.
Return to your Condition block, right click on the left operand and click on your newly created boolean Constant.
The right operand is again boolean and its value has to be set to True.

Link your block to another block (Turn on) and write the block number you want to turn on, if your condition is set to True. (in my case is 750). And create a Turn off block, linked in the yellow dot of the Boolean Condition, so. if It is not true, means that the function "Otherwise" will be activated, thus the yellow dot will activate the next block (Turn off).

It may seem complicated... and is not easy to grasp the first times... but go with trial and error and you will make it work.

P.s. The only the first 3 blocks should go on On Init, the rest I would put it on On tick.

@l-andorrà said in Grid strategy - How can I close last trade created with the first created?:

Thank you for your answer, however I dunno know how to implement this block. I tried to used it but everytime I use it, it opens and closes trades uncontrollably, I don`t know what is going on...

Hello,

I am trying to create a grid EA. I managed to close a batch of trades all together when thy reach an average profit. So if I have 10 trades, they will get all closed in case the price goes in my favour.

However I need that at each cycle of trades, the last trade created closes with the first created. No matter how trades I have. Once they close, the second trade created closes with the actual last created, once their average reaches a profit. I am attaching an image (there is an EA which I am trying to replicate).

How can I do that?
Thank you!
