Hi, can you show your project, and a pic of it in mt5 please ?

@dadi
Hi, here there is a tuto "buy-sell-buy-sell" : https://fxdreema.com/howto#Simple-Programs

@siggi
If the condition is : ""ma8"" > ""ma 50 |adjust:+30 pips|""
The condition is true when ma8 is at least 30 pips higher than ma50.

@tedhor07
This branch will close the buy position as soon as a bear has formed, no matter if you are loosing or winning. And i don't think the old way is relevant.
But you still can fix TP or SL with fix pips in this buy block. So position will be closed whenever either pips are reached or bear formed.

@tedhor07
SL, TP set in this block are fix, so when a buy position is opened, there is a stop-loss which is fixed at the level you selected : the close of the actual bear candle (if candle id = 0), if it is a bear, and if it is different from the previous one. As it is never the case, you dont have any SL and all your trades are closed winning.
You should do that instead : https://fxdreema.com/shared/sSfCm4z1d

Hi, there are 2 ways to prevent this kind of issue :

1. In condition block -> in more settings -> in candle ID, write 1. So instead of passing when the ma8 > ma50 on the current candle (by default "empty" equals "0" as ID), the condition will be true when the ma8 > ma50 on the previous candle (ID 1).
   By that as the candle 1 is closed, the MA will not move anymore at this candle. Unlikely the candle 0 (empty) which makes continuously move the MA until this candle closes, which can give false signals.
2. In condition block -> in adjust -> write +30 pips. And you can decide setting the candle ID you want.
   Pips value in blocks, should be the same in backtest.

@fabien-s
Oh ok that's unfortunate thx

@l-andorrà
If the expiration is supposed to close the trade, it has never worked for me :

Duno why

@traderea6
I dont really see what's going on with your project, but about the second pic, the condition says that it will pass only when the "open candle" of the closed trade is older than 2. So if the first trade lasts 3 bars, another one will be opened as soon as its closed; if the first lasts 1 bar, it will wait 1 more bar(then 2) and pass the next bar.
However there is no block below this one so..

@johnny_prd
Hi, think you can do it :

@luckybest
Hey, I think the problem comes from, stop-loss mode, where you selected "Custom (price fraction)" instead of "Custom (price level)". In this case.

Duno if that is array, but i am using in my current project a block that would do the math for you, which would come after the blocks roar gave you.

Block 1 is mine, block 2 is four you. Just check that the variables names are the same that you have set.

What is your problem, you want the EA to open a BUY trade whenever the price is above Ichimoku indicator, but doesn't work ?
Can you share the entire project please

The thing is, number of strategies used humanly are very hard/almost impossible to implement in a bot. The very visual ones like : triangles; retracements; support/resistance... require a complex analyse, only a brain is able to master, especially when they are combined.
Automated strategies are using often simpler signals, like crossing ; specific value at a given time for exemple, in sum more binary things.
But i don't think you can come out profitable using such easy and common signals taken one by one. So you must find a system that allows you to combine several simple signals like these, but giving enough flexibility, to miss as less opportunities as possible. Like playing on lots size for exemple.
At least this is what i got since i'm on EA's, by that recently ^^

This is nice taking the lead @roar , next time ill start with the demonstration : )

Hi, by using flags or variables. When first condition is true, turn it into true, which will allow the next condition to pass as soon as it is true as well.

By doing something like that

Yes if candle 0 x> MA adjust : + 15 pip-------buy
You can do that

As there is a big number of ticks in a bit of time, comparing the price every tick to a referred price(buy/sell price) just set is, in many situations, gonna open a large number of opposite positions. One tick it will be above, the other below... The easiest way (probably the best), to avoid "wrong" trades, is to set candle 1.

Also avoid using highest price from candle 1 to 1. Use high of candle 1 for exemple, or, close of candle 1.
