@rafaels919 Do you have an exit condition besides SL / TP?

@shovel52 No it's not a fxdreema glitch, it's a common mistake that users of fxdreema do. If you compare apples with apples everything works fine. If you compare apples with something else, the results are not as expected. In your condition block you need to compare price with price and not price with pips as @roar already stated above.
Another common mistake is to work on candle ID 0. How can you determine the wick size, if the candle is not closed as candle ID is the current candle?

However, the wick size doesn't help you here. Let's take a look at what means a touch of the lower band for instance:

1. open price was above the lower band.
2. candle low was <= lower band
3. candle close (or if you want to stay with candle ID0 current price) is above upper band.

Right?
For the touch condition the wick size is irrelevant as long as your strategy doesn't define a minimum wick size.

@rafaels919 Do you want to calculate for past results on EA start or do you want to wait until 3 losses occured?
Just for the logical part I'd do the following:

1. condition for a possible entry is met
2. get SL and TP or other exit condition
   3.a) if SL / TP is your exit, calculate distance from "fictive" entry and see what's happening first. If SL increase a counter
   3.b) if other exit conditions was met, check if fictive open price was higher or lower the fictive exit price. If it was a loss, incrase counter
3. If counter equals 3, enable a trade execution blocks (eg. buy block) that opens an order once an entry condition is met again. After that disable the trade execution again.

Is that's the way you want the EA to behave?

@l-andorrà You might also consider trading costs such as commissions. That can be significant for a scalper for instance. And also consider minimum stopplevel on symbol as that can easily mess up your risk management.
All in all I don't think that that approach is a good one as it keeps out market condition from risk calculations at all.

@l-andorrà And even more such as check trades count which would be my first choice.

@l-andorrà What is the solution for your issue? It doesn't calculate SL that equals a certain amount of money with a static lot size. However, if you're happy with it, that's fine.

@rafaels919 Check minimum stop level in specifications of the symbol. That varies from broker to broker and may be different for several instruments.

@shovel52 There is a function in fxdreema to create a shared version of the current ea state. Choose on the top left corner in builder Project and then the last of th 4 points "Create a Shared Copy (web link)". That link you may post here.

@luckybest Looks interesting - even if most of them are scalpers what I usually not prefer. Can you also share the indicator folder mentioned?

@shovel52 Can you share your project, please? What is BB input for you? Deviation or SMA?

@drich02 Like that

Furtheremore I'd place block 8 behind block 5 and the same for block 9 and block 10

@shovel52 I'd check for 2 conditions.

Example for lower band:

1. is the candle low below lower band
2. is the candle close above the lower band

That way you'd catch all !touches that closed inside the bands. If you want toi ensure that price doesn't come back from below lower band, you may also add a 3rd condition that checks that candle open was above lower band.

@l-andorrà Check one of the risk conditions.

Or do you mean you have dynamic SL but a static lot size?

@indaplace2be Try this in a loop "for each trade" filtered for buy trades.

If condition is true (orange dot) you'd run the trailing block.

For sell trades you check if SL is greater than open price.

@drich02 Can you share your project? That would ease things. However, seperate buy and sell paths usually does the trick. If you're not sure which one will get triggered when placing the order, you may also consider oco (one cancles other) pending orders. That would open a buy and a sell pending order at the same time. Once one of both get's triggered, it will close the opposite order.

@jzfusion Have a look on a daily candle

Let's asume open price is 1.1000 and low is 1.0900. So Open price - Low is the range (positive value).

Does that make sense?

@serioza sorry to say, but I'm not interested in martigrid systems.

@serioza Better look for huge account size.

@trader-philipps I think @l-andorrà is right that you might consider paying for a short subscription as fxdreema is really a cool tool. Howevr, here is the mq5 file.

Hm .. got an error message from the forum "You do not have enough privileges for this action."

@bluemoon You might share the project here and we may have a look.
However, compile it 8n strategy tester, see which line the error is and scroll a bit up in order to maybe see which block is causing the error.
