@jstap Thank you for the willingness to help. I did manage to sort it out. Turns out at the top, there actually is a dropdown menu which has to be changed for the block to work on manually opened orders:

@l-andorrà Thank you! I knew it should be simple. Appreciate the help

Probably a silly question but Im not able to figure this out.
I have an EA that will be used as a screener, I have a phone notification set up via the blocks available in FXdreema.
The "phone notification" block allows to add detailed info to the notificiation from variables, which is great but its not much of a use if you dont know from which asset the notification is coming from.
ChatGPT says there are predifined variables like "Symbol" but how can one access them?

I tried like this, but it does not work:

@jstap

Sorry, my first time posting. Im not quite sure how create the link, but here is the setup.

I added the Draw arrow block to see if anything gets past the condition block and it does not.

when opening the trade manually in Mt5 I tried adding the comments as:
longa
"longa"

but none of these worked

The left "1for each L position" works great, it uses just the group ID to select orders to manage

I set it up like so:
for each trade block ->
condition block that checks: SL > or < Entry price
formula block that increases order count by 1 if its not at BE. (the count is reset each time at the logic tree start)

this way you track only orders with risk on, which is likely what you are after.

By using group ID in creation of trade and in the "for each trade" block you can select which orders to count. This should be a reply to your question.

I will Add that I have 2 separate "for each position" blocks, one has group ID taken into account (for the EA orders) and one that only separates longs from shorts (without any group IDs, since the manual trades dont have them)

Hello Everyone! Hopefully someone will be able to help me out.

I have an EA in the process that opens and manages orders (sets BE, trails SL etc)

Now everything is fine when the order is placed via the EA itself, since then it applies group ID to an order and later uses that group ID to manage the orders.

However, I would very much like for the EA to be able to manage a manually opened order as well. The only way I see this being done is by using the Comments added on orders in MT5.

So I tried just that: I open the order manually and set the coment: long1 (for example)

In the EA where it manages orders I have "for each position" block that separates longs from shorts and after that a simple condition block that checks: "(in loop) Trade/Order" -> comment = Value -> text -> long1

Logically it should access the order but it does not. Any ideas why?
