Alright so when there is a cross, there is 1 chance on 5(oops not 10) that it passes. That's weird cause if you have no chance you can have no trade at all. I guess it's dedicated to work with lasting conditions like "MA5>MA20".
I wanted to be sure before using more complicated structures like loops : once ber bar; pass 'n' times ; turn on a flag. Or the on timer event with loops as well but based on seconds then. It takes more time

Hi
Wanted to know how time filters blocks were working precisely, in particular the "every 'n' bars" one. Because i see that every time, when i use it interferes with my trades not the way i want.
For exemple, the simplest one : https://fxdreema.com/shared/U4lE5nbub
The first construction is gonna buy every time MA5x>MA20
The second one, only time to time even if the last buy order is older than 10 bars

Looks like it's passing to the last blocks with only 1 chance on 10 when there is a cross..
Thanks answering my rookie question

Hey back, so as i said i re adapted your model to exclude the upWick of candle 0.
I did these change on the project (first picture) :

I had to put the "math ID" adjustment before the wick calculation, so it starts with the cdl 1.

There is what it looks like know (second picture) :

@miro1360
Oh right i see, with your 2nd exemple, it executes the blocks of the right "branch" first...
I didn't think it could execute every blocks of an EA in such a short time.

@miro1360
So the point of the blocks ID's is (beside identifying them for counter reset) : When there are 2 different paths/blocks, coming out a block, the one with lowest ID is executed at the tick X, and the second one at the tick X+1 ?

@miro1360
What is really good is that, there are always many ways to do one thing on FxD.
Still got trouble from this candle 0(a mistake i did before), i should have noticed that, moreover i think that in this strategy, taking in count the wick size of the current candle before it finishes to form, doesn't really make sense.
But i've analyzed your construction(took me a bit of time), and i totally got it : ). Except the text code part in draw blocks, i know nothing about coding.
Im gona use it in in my strategy(not finalized) and tell you if something blocks me, but it should be ok.

Thanks a lot for taking that time tho!

Actually i think the way the "÷" works(block 7) , is not : X ÷ Y = X/Y
but = Y/X
Cause X divides Y.

Hey, im trying to make a looping structure, but i dont manage to make it work.
What i want is the EA to : - Check the last candles until the 5th one
- Calculate the average wick size for, the cld0(actual one), for the cdl0+1(actual and previous one) , for the cdl0+1+2 ... cdl 0+1+2+3+4+5
- Go out the loop as soon as this average is above 5 pips
- And open sell(short)

Here is what i made : https://fxdreema.com/shared/T4oNVqQPb

Note : the journal tells me that the EA checks for 128mb of data then stop. So the loop isn't stopping i suppose.

@ambrogio
I see, it's as simple as that
@roar
Alright then nothing to do with the duration of the positions.
I didn't find this option, maybe we need to sing up, here is the link
link text

I am hearing very often these terms in trading "short positions" and "long positions". So the meaning behind it, would be that, when you sell, you better do it for a short period of time, and when you buy, on a longer period. The reason, would be : as the economy tend to expand, prices of companies "equities" tend to increase. What i understand.
But what about the forex market ? As soon prices are : the value of a currency expressed in a value of an other one, why would the price of one, tend to increase more than its binomial ?
When i see this graph :
Im not sure how to interpret it, is it the ratio of volumes, or the ratio of total number of trades ? In the second case, if more people are buying, but at the end the value of the pair is similar, does it mean the volumes of "longue positions" are smaller than "short positions ?
Thanks clarifying

Cause of sense of the ">" of block 9

You open the stochastic indicator(by default in new window), then drag your EMA in this window

@jzfusion
Personally, i'm building my EA's step by step and test them on the terminal before going further, so i can see what change makes its wrong.

Im sorry man but i think it's not even a strategy, you need more than how much pips, like : happens in maximum "n" bars; happens if there is no opposite movement that doesn't exceed "n" pips; do you still open a trade when there is already one; do you sell when there is a buy ...

@roar
Yes got it, pretty smart. Im gona consider it, it may be useful to me later!

@roar
Humm so this ea would :
--->Loop around blocks "1" and "4" continuously
---> Pass to block "3" then "2" 100 times, every loop until the 100th loop
---> then stop
So as there is no "once per bar" block there will be many execution in a bit of time, it will draw arrows on the 100 last bars, in seconds, until 5ma>20ma ?
Im trying to reformulate, it interests me.

If i get it, what you need is simply this ? https://fxdreema.com/shared/A1PtFGNsc
With the "1", the number of candles where the arrow is fixed before the cross.
I didn't understood the logic of your exemple roar, can you put the link of the project ?

I think that on the arrows side, the problem comes from the "once per bar" block while you are setting a condition that happens in a single point. Try to delete this block.
I think aswell your block "price >x indicator" can be replaced by the same "condition" to the left but, below your "Dvalue_up" in adjust you can write "+5 pips".

Is the Admin on vacation or ?

@fabien-s
Oh like that ok : )
