I need the Supertrend to point the way. I.e. if the super trend is long, I only go long with my other indicators.
So I never act against the Supertrend indicator.
Therefore I need a signal if the Supertrend indicator is long or short.

How can I integrate the Supertrend indicator?
I want to buy when the current candle is above the Supertrend.
Of course with other conditions, but in any case with the one mentioned above.
But I don't get a signal.

Thanks. I check it out.

How can I change the stop loss before I buy?
Let's say I have a stop loss of 200 pips as a constant.

My stop loss from an indicator has 160 pips.

I now want to use the lower stop loss from my indicator to buy.

How can I query this in Mql?

Or is there another way?

I'll try it. Thanks.

Is this connection correct?

How can I tell if my Stop indicator is greater than the open price and then starts to move?

Thanks for the answer.
Maybe I said it wrong.
The initial stop is at e.g. 20 points.
As soon as I am break even, I want to check whether the stop calculated by an indicator is greater than break even.
If so, the new trailing stop calculated with an indicator should be used.

So I need to be able to compare whether the value indicator is Stop > Break Even on a long buy.

I.e. If variable "Indicator Value" > "Break Even" then new Trailing Stop is indicator value.

I hope that was a little more understandable.

Hello,

how can i change the trailing stop during the trade ?

When buying I have a stop of e.g. 20 points.
As soon as the trade is on break even, I want to set the trailing stop after calculating an indicator.
How does it work?
Thanks in advance.

@implosion said in trace indicator: no values displayed:

Check the directory and use the "uncompiled version" of the indicator

Do you mean the "*.mq4" file?
I took this file.

I have the same problem.

With "Chrome", it didn´t work.
I try it with "Firefox", and ist works.

I will trace "my indicator", but I only see the value of the candle.
The indicator is on "0".
