So are you saying that the block passing or not is based on the "$ amount" and "> than" / "< than" settings?

Got it. Thanks

That didn't work either. But it seems that what your saying is the difference between Time 1 and Time 2 in the "Check Profit (period of time)" block has nothing to do with the block passing. Is that True?

Block "Check Profit (period of time)"

I made an Test EA that should Once a bar, check between 12:00 and 16:00 daily, the block should "pass" if less than $1000 profit is made. (The EA doesn't take any trades so profit is always under $1000.)

My assumption is that the block would NOT pass outside 12:00 to 16:00 time regardless of profit amount. But it "passes" the whole time. Like the time filter doesn't work.

Is this a Bug?

My goal is to have from 07:30 to 19:00 the block to pass if $2000 has not been made in that time period. and to not pass if $2000 profit has been made.

Hey jstap, thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure if I understand what your saying. This EA is to test the functionally of the "Check Profit (period of time)" block.
The draw block time is set to now. "Once per Candle" (Time candle 0) if "Check Profit" block time and conditions are met, it should draw once per candle in the selected time period of the Check Profit block.

I'm trying to make an EA that has two trading periods per day, that it takes trades until "X" amount of profit is made in THAT time period.

I am using the block "Check Profit (period of time)"

As I understand it, it should draw a green line for the entire first session and a red line for the entire second session, as the "Test" EA does not take any trades, so the profit is under the set <lower than profit target. and no line that is outside of both of the two session time frames.

When I run it in the mt4 Strategy Tester it draws a red line for a whole day of only one day of the month long test.

I'm confused, and I'm sure doing something wrong. can anyone point me in the right direction. Thx

I guess it's just magic.

Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong.

I don't matter it I use Candle High, Low, Open, Mid in "Price (1)" It only uses Candle Close.

@pipologist

So I guess this can't be done?
