@seb-0 Yeah, some brokers have a huge stop level. If calculations are right, what I assume, I'd say change the broker or the timeframe to get bigger candles!?!

@mpr260975 Create a buy and a sell button on your chart is probably the easiest way.

@fxalex And how do you identify the start of the sequence?

@chattahooche Sounds like simple trailing stop loss or I didn't get what means reverse.
You have a trailing start, trailing step and trailing stop. So what is the problem?

@azfireland Would that do the trick?

If you need thecandle ID you can the "What to get" part to candle ID.

@wakalz99 Tale profit has to be "Price Level" in my opinion as open price is also a price level.

What are the change status fields for? I never use them.

@mselvi70 Did you check experts tab and journal for any errors? Are you using any custom indicators?

@fxalex Do you need to know the number of candles? Or do you just want to make sure that a certain amount of time has passed since close of the trade. In the last case you maight use this..

Unfortunately you cannot specify a minimum candle number, just time parameters.

@azfireland Does it mean you want eg the candle that is 10 candles away? So just put ID10 for instance. Or what is the issue? Maybe I didn't get you right.

@seb-0 Do you see some errors in expert or journal log?

If you work with once per bar, the line is executed on first tick of the bar. If you specify your calculations on candle ID0, It's unlikely that it will have a 3 pip candlesize already.

So better do your calculations on previous candle with ID1!

@marianomartinez Usually that's not necessary.

@fairos Thanks for the screenshot. However, @l-andorrà meant a link to the project share.

@marianomartinez No. By default the EA only cares for trades with the same symbol and magic number that it is attached to. There must be something else wrong in your setup I guess.

@marianomartinez Well, everything looks fine for me. The only difference I found between sell and buy line is here (cross width) ..

But that has nothing to do with the issue you are facing.

Is it opening 2 trades on the same symbol or on different symbols?

@wakalz99 said in Close trade when take profit is higher then sell price:

Sorry, but I'm not interested in marti grid EAs. Just wanted to help you out. If EA doesn't do what you intend to do, we need to have a look at. Otherwise we can't help.

@wakalz99 Can you share your project? It's hard to tell as my crystal ball is in repair

Check my post in https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/7938/atr-strategy-i-m-confused-help-me-please/2
There I show how to transform ATR value into pip value (independent from digits) and can easily be added / reduced from any price.

@wakalz99 Open Price is the price that will appear in your terminal and is the open price of the order!

@pipologist Check the block IDs! The Custom MQL Code block (ID 2) is running before you modify the ATR variable! However, that might just be a side affect.

@wakalz99 So you'd just add a condition like that ..

Is that what you're looking for?
