ATR condition doesnt work in fxdreema?

[TashaB]

I tried to make an EA condition where it should be above a certain value to enter a trade but the EA never works at all. (I tried both numeric and pips in the value drop options.

This alos happened when I Condition the ATR to cross above 7.1 ......It didnt work at all.

@tashab This is hard to say without a shared link, 7.1 is quite high for atr as is displayed in price fraction not pips. If yoy want to use the pip value then you can find out how here. https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/12802/atr-pips

@tashab In HERE is your project but I have added the ATR into a comment, you can see the size of number you need to be working with.

@jstap its not the ATR period am taking bout, its the "line to cross"'......The ATR isnt cossing that line.

@tashab The ATR goes from bottom to top, the numbers aren't fixed, they change depending on the average candle size during the used period, the returned number is the price fraction of the average size, I do not have line cross on ATR because of this, you can reference candle size and compare to average.
