Hello All,
I use the bucket of trades tag a lot and it's great. But I would like to get some individual values for multiple open positions, most are opened with a script.
I tried adding a Group Number to the script to see if that would somehow carry over to an EA added later but no go.
Can we scan the chart and get individual values (money, lots) for each trade? Thanks
@vonmunchy Thank you for your reply earlier and it works fine for pips but is there any way to get this value of SL in money? For example, I have a simple indicator that does give me the value in pips and money on the chart above the SL line (even if I drag the SL line around) so I know the language can accomplish the task. Just cannot figure out how to do it in fxDreema. Remember there could be several trades at various lot sizes. Thank you for your help.
PS: I have tried several solutions but the money value is never even close to being correct
MT4. I have a variable that has my open trades value in dollars by using the "Basket Of Trades" function. I can get pips out of that function for things like SL and TP but no built-in way to get currency as pips. So say I have $10 in profit that is a total for 3 trades. How can I determine the pips? I tried using the lot size but that gets confused when there are multiple trades. Thx
Thanks... that works great. I did mess about with this function before posting in the forum but the numbers I was getting were all wrong. This works great. Thanks again.
Hello,
If I enter a trade manually (market or pending) can I use a loop to gather the SL value(s) in currency? I am trying to determine my risk level after entering several trades. I can currently do this if the SL never moves from its original setting but I would like this to still work even if I move my SL manually. Thanks
For example, I set a grid of BUY stops 20 pips above the current price. But the price moves 10 pips lower. At that point, I would like that grid of BUY stops to move 10 pips down so they are the same distance from the price as they were originally.
Do I need to detect this 10 pip change, cancel delete the original grid and place a new one? If so what code do I use to monitor this price change? Thanks
Is there a way to trigger an action when a trade is closed by the built-in trailing stop function? For example, delete a pending order by group?
Hello, I am using the following Custom MQL code to remove the many decimal places that a variable sometimes display in a comment.
RoundTrade4=MathRound(Trade4);
However, this produces an integer when I want two decimal places. Is there a simple change to this code to make it display 2 decimal places? (that would be nice)
I have tried other code without success. Thanks
Anybody? Would appreciate any solutions that work in Strategy Tester MT4
@isp00rt Thank You. But we are talking about the Strategy Tester. It should reset the balance on each new run. In fact, I can display the balance on the chart and it starts at $10,000 each time.
This should be easy and I've tried many. many, methods that O have read here in the forum and I can't get any of them to work consistently.
I am using MT4 and Strategy Tester and possibly the tester is the issue.
During a trading session by the EA many trades might be taken.
If the TOTAL profit (or LOSS) from all these trades is $100 I would like the EA to stop trading.
Should be easy but not using the built-in Blocks that I can see.
The first likely candidate is "Check Profit (average)" as it gives the option of "Running Trades Only" OR "Running & HISTORY trades".
Perhaps I misunderstand what "HISTORY" means but I can't get that to work. I assume it means all trades in this trading session with the EA but maybe not.
If just use the "Running Trades Only"... no problem but that doesn't help at all and all of the examples I found in the Forum were NOT using the "Running & HISTORY trades" selection.
I also tried the pink block "check profit" but that also appears to be for running trades.
I also tried using a "Condition" and the "Account" and "Value" selections also to no avail.
I'm sure this can be done using variables and if somebody has nice reliable code block I would appreciate some guidance but (unless I misunderstand its purpose) the code block "Check Profit (average)" should work.
Maybe not in MT4 Strategy Tester?
Thanks for any help.... love fxDreema... it really is revolutionary.
Yes, that link would be great Rafael.
I think a Signal Service is brilliant. For one it is the real deal... a trader makes money with a reasonable drawdown or he doesn't.
99% of everything out there is speculation, talking about a trade AFTER the fact or talking about trades from a theoretical perspective. Putting your Signal on the line is where the rubber meets the road.
I subscribe to a few... one paid the others free just to really see what these traders are doing. Most that make money do use either hedging, grids or martingale or some combination of these things so they take a higher than normal risk.
But they make money (some do) and they get lots of subscribers.
What a perfect way to make money. 500 subscribers paying $30 each pm for you to do what you would do anyway. More capital for trading as well.
Once you have a reliable system it is all about capital.
Look forward to talking to you more in the future.
Thank you Rafael... that was just what I needed. Very kind of you to take the time. I have read through the Tutorials many times but this just never clicked with me. Are you interested in helping me here and there for an hourly fee?
I noticed your Signal at MQL5. I will be subscribing as it is performing well and with small lot size also.
I do see you trade manually.... is the EA time spent in fxDreema going to be used for some automation Signals down the road?
Thank you again.
I have looked through the site but my skills are sadly not up to the task. Can I create an EA or script that would detect a new trade on the chart and apply MY SL, TP and TSL settings to each new trade? Or in the case of a script, I could drag the script onto the chart (that may have many trades in play).
And if I were to add my own STOP and LIMIT orders it would automatically add the SL, TP and TSL also?
I don't mind paying for somebody to help me with this as I would also like to add some Money Management later.
I prefer to do this in fxDreema as I can add items myself easier and also learn from the code.
Thanks
I tried creating a script to just delete all pending orders on the chart. However, when dragged onto the chart nothing happens. I tried using group numbers to identify the pending orders on the chart but still nothing. Is there another block needed?
