My EA kept Opening Too Many Trades.
-
Hello, please I need help.
I created an EA with all the settings I want but the problem I am having is that the EA kept opening new trades after take profit until the conditions are no longer met.
I want the EA to only take one trade once the conditions are met and wait for the conditions to be met again before taking another one.
I have tried different options and followed all suggestions in the other thread but not working.
@l-andorrà please help me have a look.
Your assistance will be much appreciated.
-
I use this to have only one trade. Turn off buy and sell blocks when trade is active, otherwise turn on buy and sell blocks.

-
Thank you for four reply @FenixTrading but this does not solve my problem because my EA closes (TP) one trade before opening another one. What I need is a setting or blocks to stop it from taking new trades after closing the first one until the conditions are met again.

@lanrayy Can you please share your project?

Alright sir @l-andorrà Here is the link https://fxdreema.com/shared/yuy4wxGKd
Thanks for your assistance. -
@lanrayy Apparently the problem is that custom indicator. Ar eyou sure its buffers are correctly identified by fxDreema?
-
@lanrayy Specify candle ID 1 in "more settings" field of the condition block, in the left operand also. And split the "no trade" block , one for buy and one for sell
-
in the condition If you put > he will keep opening order
try cross above and change 1 to 2 or 3
-
@ambrogio Thank you for your suggestion but it still doesn't work.
-
@ramisignals Thank you so much for your suggestion but it also doesn't work because the custom indicator does not require crossover.
-
I do this modify and it looks working with me

@l-andorrà This issue does not have to do with the custom indicator. I actually have this same challenge with other ordinary indicators. You can check out this project created moving average but still has the same issue. I just need a settings to say one trade should be taking at a time .Please help me look into in again.
-
@ramisignals Thanks, I will look at this and get back to you.
-
@lanrayy We're probably using the indicator the wrong way, can you load it up please? I'll take o look on it.

@ambrogio thats the custom indicator. But just to let you know, the problem is not peculiar to the custom indicators alone. The same issue still occurs when using ordinary indicators too with the same settings.
-
If these are your conditions, then I am dead in the water with a solution. a 5x20 is going to keep opening trades because that trend, once running, will run hundreds if not thousands of ticks. Until your free margin and equity are challenged, you'll be stuck with that...
If you have more conditions than this, then it is those conditions.
I hope I understand your condern the way you have concern.Good luck
