Ok thanks.

It takes short trades because the large stop loss is above the price and us still a valid price. For the long trade the stop loss is below zero and is invalid.

That makes sense. Thanks again for your help.

it are examples ... first example is how to store candle number with highest price into variable for further work ... second example is condition block where you can directly compare which candle is older (have greater ID), if highest or lowest price ... these blocks alone are not completly project, it shows you only how to work with information which you asked ...

Thank you. That works a lot better.

Remember that the EA must work for this. Expiration is natural for pending orders and happens on the server, but expiration for trades is not. The EA monitors the time on every tick and decides when to close the trade.

Labels are text, write whatever you want to see on the chart. If a label have no text (which is by default), this row of information will not appear

If you want to set only the initial price, do that directly into Buy/Sell blocks, you will find custom (level) there as well. Then use whatever technique in Trailing stop to move it.

I can see that would work if you had a fixed pips stop loss. But as this uses a stop based on the prior bars range it changes every trade. Looks like I'll have to use the one I developed.

Thanks for showing me that option though. It might be handy with other strategies.

Thanks miro1360. That is awesome. Makes perfect sense.

Here and there in blocks, including the Trailing Stop block, you will see three types of custom input:

Custom (level) - the expected value is like 1.2345 when you mean 1.2345. Whatever value you enter, this will be the value that will be used. If you put 10 and we are talking for SL, then the stop-loss line will be put at price 10. Not 10 pips from the current price, but the actual price of 10 Custom (pips) - you should enter value like 10 when you mean 10 pips. These 10 pips are relative to the current price Custom (price fraction) - you should enter value like 0.0010 when you mean 10 pips. These 10 pips are again, relative to the current price

Well, for such conditions I added second alternative Condition block that accepts code. You can define few Variables, then set values to them in "Modify Variables" and then write the condition with them in this Condition. Of course, regular Condition and Formula blocks can be used, but it will take more blocks to do the same.
