Skip the first signal

got an indicator similar to yours and I want it to skip the first signal

I believe that if you use the pink block "Indicator Appear", already work for you.

Hello fxDreema
This version of my EA works with two different timeframes at the same time as if two graphs. In backtest and forward test it works ok, but it looks like running on real or demo account works differently. Will be the timeframe that I put to work this wrong? I have to use the chart that the EA is running more or less timefreme?

Normally we can get candle and indicator values from different timeframes in the same chart, at least for Daily and below. Try this: https://fxdreema.com/shared/PyvfiGR0e and you will see the current values of 3 MA-14 indicators with different timeframe settings. There is probably something else

Hello fxDreema.
I have noticed that every time I close the platform and restart my notebook, my EA has open position in USDCAD, disregarding the rule block "Indicator Appear". Only this pair since the other pairs EURUSD, GBPUSD, etc. I did not have this problem.

Can you create some simple EA that contains the problematic block and... let's say "Draw Arrow"... so I can get that EA and recreate the situation directly?

Otherwise for MT5 I know that very often it does some weird things, because it does not work in synchrony with the EA. For example, when you start the EA and the first thing to do is to load some indicator, MetaTrader 5 will start loading the indicator, but will throw an error message before finishing that loading. It just does not wait for something to be loaded and you end up with error messages and value of 0, which can cause problems with the EA.
Worse than that, recently I found that it does not wait it's own database with positions and orders to be updated before giving you information for some position or order. So if you decide to modify some position and then immediately get the modified value - it will give you the old value instead of first updating it's database and then giving you what is needed.
I tricked the both cases, but who knows what else could be wrong...

Hello fxDreema.
By necessity, and also for its recommendation, created this EA for MT4.
But did not open any order.
This identical to MT5 version.
Here is my project:

Now I don't have this indicator for some reason.
But if there are no trades created from an EA, this is one of the easiest problems to discover:- Check for errors in the logs. If no errors => the problem is somewhere in the conditions and filters, which lead us to 2.
- Check conditions and filters. You don't know if a block passes or not? Connect some "Draw Arrow" on it's output. Or every other block that gives us some visual information - Print, Comment, Draw...

I got it. It worked. Thank you!

Just one question: MT4 accept orders based on two different timeframes?
In H1 D1 based on, for example. -
Orders does not depend on timeframes, charts and so on. There is one single pool with orders and trades. Timeframes are only for calculations, indicators...
