@sli1-0 On buffers that only have a visual value eg. in data window of your MT4 terminal, such as your arrow buffers probably have, better use the blocks "indicator is visible" or "indicator is invisible". The background is that most of them have the datatype double and somehow if it's not filled by the indicator, the value is some high positive number (can't recall it at the moment). You may test it by putting the value of your arrow buffer in an variable and print on the chart or in the log.

@hax @l-andorrà is right. Easiest way would be to share a concrete project.
However, in general if you link 2 conditions, there are some ways to delay such as switch ON a block on first occurance of condition 1 or having a counting variable that is increased by each run condition 1 is valid.
In both cases you also need to care about invalidation in case condition 2 doesn't happen in sensible in a reasonable amount of time. In that case you'd reset to original condition.
Does that make sense?

@mannybear1 Should it open only at a specific time each day automatically or do you pick by yourself which trade to take and let it manage your trade (fully automated vs semi-automated).
If it should run fully automated, you can use time filters

and in addition maybe the turn ON/OFF blocks or a combination of both.

If you want a semi-automated you may prompt for useraction before opening a trade or have a button on the chart to open an order.

As @l-andorrà said, it may be helpful if you'd have a concrete project to share and to discuss about.

@amin In that case you would check first for thir condition to occur. Then check the other 2 according to the way they have to happen in the meaning of at the same tim (same candle) or in a range of candles.
If a range and independent crossing conditions are sufficient, you may work with the "cross width" condition on both of it.
If they have to occur at the same time within the last n candles, you'd probably need to create a loop and check back both condition per last n bars. Does that make sense?

@amin On cross over confition you might check the "cross width". If you specify 3 for exapmle the condition may have occured the last 3 candles (as I understand it).

@satoriforex2k18 Yepp. @ambrogio the trailing should not be set behind a No trade block!

@satoriforex2k18 Call me stupid, but what I see in the video is that trailing starts immediately after trade open, right? And on each bar the SL will be adjusted, if price reached a new high.
In this case I'd say it's like that...

The step size I put to 1 as it means price have to exeed current high by 1 pip. You may choose 0 here, but I don't like too many modyfy SL messages in the history.

@amin I took a look here https://fxdreema.com/shared/F8uJEfSye as mentioned before in this thread. If this is not your actual setting, please update.

If it is, my post is still right, as follows ..

It will draw a line when

1. RSI(7) < 25
2. STO(5,3,3) <= 25
3. MACD blue crosses up MACD red
   -> All conditions have to take place at the last closed candle.

In your screenshot at the time the MACD cross took place when RSI already traveled above 25 and hence the EA did not draw a line.

Right?

@l-andorrà I was thinking of it, but candle open sounded very unlikely to me to happen in 1 tick

@scottpapetti First thing is that in the fxdreema produced ea sources the indicator is referencenced by "Synergy_Pro_TDI". The file you uploaded is lower-case. That's no issue on windows, but an issue on Mac.

Furthermore it looks like that the indicator requires some dll files. Once I put it on the chart, it prints in the log

Cannot load 'CompassFX.dll' [126]
Cannot load 'synergy_pro.dll' [126]

Those 2 files has to be in the MQL4/Libraries folder of you MT4 instance. However, as some dll libraries are using Windows specific APIs, there is a big chance that you won't get it work on a Mac. Check the Expert tab on your terminal once you place the indicator on the chart.

Last but not least your EA seems to require the '..\MQL4\indicators\JurikFilter_v2.ex4' file. I didn't check where you use it, but if someone wants to test the EA, it would probably be required to get it run.

If you choose oco, you just need 1 buy OR 1 sell block. it will place 2 trades. Like that.

@fxkomin Something like that?

@hani-1 Looks like they never occur at the same time, right? Can you specifiy in what thime (or candles on which tf) they should occur? Are there circumstances that would validate or void the conditions?

@sli1-0 Check EA setting and make a reset maybe?

@emaniek said in How to show Moving Average on chart - no draw, but show indicator:

Hi, yes I need add standard indicator on chart, example EMA 200, can you show me how to add? Thanks.

Try read your sentence and let me know how one should guess that you are seeking to implement indicator logic in an EA such as a proxy! I'm not aware that is possible unless you draw it by yourself. Indicator may trigger EA by signal. The other way that an EA proxies indicator buffers I'm not aware of - at least with standard MT4 API.

@satoriforex2k18 You can use every minute, depending on the volatility of your asset. Or every n ticks. It's up to you. You can leave out the timefilter completely,. Than on each tick the conditions will be checked.

@satoriforex2k18 If I understood your usecase right, it should work.

@amin At MACD cross RSI was above 25. The EA worked right!

@emaniek - I think your request ist too low level for this forum. However, watch this Video

@alphaandy In builder, left top corner Projects menu last option. Post the link here.
