EA Not Working on live account as worked on strategy tester.

[lanrayy]

Hello guys!

Please I need your help on this project I have been struggling it for a while.
What I simply want to create is an EA that can open new trades after current open trades is in loss with a certain number of pips. And also create a new trade immediately the current trade closes with take profit.

The part which gives me headache is the one to open a new trade when the current trade is running in loss.

Here is the project: https://fxdreema.com/shared/QgeIbjn8b
I have created the exact thing I wanted and works perfectly well when tested on strategy tester for both buy and sell . Where the problem now lies is that the EA is not performing the same way on real life trading when installed on demo account. The block 8 (2nd sell) which suppose to open new trade after -20 pips of the first sell kept opening multiple trades on every tick. The block 22 (2nd buy) which suppose to open additional buy after -20 pips of the first buy in not working at all.

This is only happening on live trading when installed on demo account for testing. The EA is functioning perfectly well on strategy tester.

Please help me have a look and tell me what I did wrongly..

@lanrayy Remove blocks 4 & 18 which is not needed. Also in "For each position" block settings, there is an option "Not more than 'n' trades in which you have to put "1" so that it will not take more than 1 trade at that time.

Also remove blocks 7 & 21 which is also not needed. Try it and see.

@karthiey Thank you so much for trying to help out but unfortunately it is still not working. I did everything you said and still tweaked it further my way but still not working. Still the same error.

The problem seems to be with "Pips Away From Open Price" block. I don't know what is it about it that makes block 8 (Sell block) to trigger and take trades after every tick as soon as the first sell block opens a trade.

Please I will appreciate if you have another suggestions. Or any other alternative for "pips away from open price" block. Thanks

i think this is an old bug that appear on MT5 , @fxDreema never fixed

Please try to insert this condition block and test

@lanrayy and @ambrogio isn't he supposed to turn the blocks on with red highlights around them?

@lanrayy I believe this is a bug. I am also having the same problem and even in the demo market the error persists. It used to work. No matter the exchange, currency, metal, it just stopped working.

@lanrayy @OntradingX @Moneyman012-0 ok, i maked some test on my own, it's really a bug on demo/live (as you said works in backtest), i suggest you to open a bug report tagging @fxDreema, uploading a little project that show the bug only

[lanrayy]

I will definitely work on your advice @ambrogio.
