"Trailing start" - "100% of trailing stop"

Using the envelopes indicator would be the straigth-forward solution.
Alternatively, use formula MA + 10(pips) and a condition after formula

@fxdreema said in Cryptocurrencies are exploding these days:

When I wrote this topic I think the Bitcoin price was somewhere between 2000 and 3000 dollars. Over 15000 now and I still believe that cryptocurrencies will grow. Guys, forget about this Forex stuff and buy and hold some cryptos, I think you will be much better in the future

Haha, you made a pretty good call
Personally I am quite sceptic on the bitcoin trend - how can you determine the correct price, how long can it really keep rising, it must be a bubble, IT MUST BE.... aaaand I am probably wrong.

For looking inside live formula results, try the comment-block and visual tester

You need to give more information, what it is exactly you are trying to do.

Is the blue line = close of candle id 200 to lowest/highest point of last 200?

Why are you comparing id 1 and id 200? Wouldn't using MA rising/falling a more confident way?

It prevents the window from closing - normally it closes when you click update

Open the generated .mq4 file in the metaeditor - the about-stuff is right in the beginning, you will figure it out

@timmyhanke
Nice work
I haven't done anything similar to this, and can't spot any obvious mistakes in the logic..

Your paths look correct, just check there is no typos.
For example, are you sure your mt4 terminal is not C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\

You can import .mq4 files to your fxdreema.

So export your EA1 to EA1.mq4
then import it into fxdreema, change project name to EA2.

Now you should have both EA1 and EA2 in your "load-menu"

oh, youre right

You see, the once per tick creates a loop? It never passes before the first conditions

I would make it simple as this:

dunno if it works

Agreed. In mt5 tester there is optimization by the recovery factor - that has served me pretty well.

haha, I agree on that

hmm... how about using the trade group number, set it as a variable - when you need to "restart", increase that variable by +1, so the group number will be different from there on

looks good

why can't it be like
above upper line -> close
below lower line -> close

in that case the trades will close also when the price is suddenly 0.0001 pips above the upper line - the current project would leave the trades open, because it is not exactly there (==)

I'm no expert on objects, but its not usually good to use the == sign when comparing price. The price rarely is exactly something - use the > and the < instead

check the tab - we are OnTrade, not OnTick
