Thank you that is a good idea. Please help me with this logic. My aim is to say that if the average price of the open trades - current price > 10 pips, then close all the trades. I am happy to try your solution but how do I set that up to achieve what I am after?

I have come across a related issue. I need to know the current profit for a bunch of trades to use in a close out condition. Any ideas?

Hi AMbrogio - that has worked and is generating data, thank you.

I have a series of trades that open using "add to volume". The trades are opening fine. But I am having no joy closing the trades based on average profit.
Please advise what I need to try to fix this.

Worked it out. Please ignore.

Please will you review this EA (shared/YqgAZ89hd) and let me know why it won't generate any trades on backtest. I have tried various pairs and time charts but it just won't trade.

Thank you. I tried the customer code and it seems to work!!

I have scoured the forum but nothing that answers this speciifc situation.

I am building an EA to trade USDJPY and one of the conditions needs a round number. So for example, if the actual price is 134.123 I need 134, and if it is 134.567 I need 135.

How do I achieve this in the actual condtion box? Do I need customer code (never used that before)?

Got it - thank you.

@roar do you know if the seconds filter starts at 0? So if I filter 1 to 60 will the EA start at 1 second past the minute? I am also wondering if every n ticks could work. Basically I want the EA to wait for one tick to happen in the new period before continuuing with the calculations for opening a trade.

I want my EA at the start of a new period to count 1 tick before calculating trade open conditions. How exactly does "every n ticks" work? When the EA gets to it, does the EA then count the number of ticks specified before moving on down? I am thinking that if I have a "once per bar" before it, and specific 1 tick, the EA will wait for the new bar, wait for a tick to happen, then continue. Please advise.

Yes I think this is down to the backtesting. Thanks for your help, very generous and appreciated.

Trading USDJPY. Problem is still happening. Do you know if it is possible to force the EA to wait to do the calcs when say a min of one tick has happened in the current period? That way I can have confidence the EA will use the right data when live.

Sorry on it now.

Thank you for looking at it!!

It's block 26. I am getting too many trades and compared to my analysis data the EA is often not calcualting this block as it should be.

USDJPY sell-2.mq4

I understand of course that current candle = 0
