Create buttons that work in MT4 & MT5 Live, Demo & Back test

[jstap]

Linked below is button projects that don't use custom code, unfortunately edit fields don't work on MT5 back test, the buttons do and all works on demo/live.

There are other buttons that do nothing in this project but, they are there so a true/false bool condition can be put in a standard buy/sell tree, to start/stop trading from pressing a button.

MT4: MT4 PROJECT

MT5 (edit fields don't work on back test): MT5 PROJECT

@jstap Could you explain deeply how to understand your incredible work?

[jstap]

@uriel-0 Am not explaining everything, but ask me any specific points you would like to know.

Excellent work on this EA. My one issue is when I use it i get defaulted to 0.01 lot size. Please how do I fix this?
Thx

[jstap]

@samgeezy If back testing MT5 put it in the inputs, otherwise put it in the on screen edit field.

[SamGeezy]

@jstap thnaks for the quick response. Im a newbie at this. Inputs? On screen edit field?

[jstap]

@samgeezy Inputs are the options you can change, the edit field is on the right of the screen.

@jstap Can you share mq4 file ? I want to pay for fxdreema but now im learning. This is what im looking for for my ea.

[jstap]

@tpieczka Share a shared project to look at

[tpieczka]

@jstap At this moment im trying to build ea with:

1,2 buttons: normal buy, sell by mouse click
3 button StochON ----> then buy or sell if indicator (arrow) is visible on candle 1 ---> automatically
on the same button StochOFF ------> EA do nothing even if indicator (arrow) is visible
4 on button ZLHullON -----> the same as Stoch
on the same button ZLHullOFF is depressed -----> EA do nothing even if indicator gave a signal
5 button EMA ---> EA should open a positions with conditions above but only long if price is over definied EMA
(indicator) or only short if below EMA
on the same button EMA_OFF if depressed ----> EA trade without EMA`s
6 Button ----- > Breakeven + spread
7 Button -----> Trailing by candle size (Renko constans size, adjustable)
8 button Close trade

Still searching how to work with buttons, how to stops parts of ea with button position (pressed, depressed).
Im trading on DAX but its too fast price movements - it must be control by ea
Short SL, short TP M1, Renko

Pozdrawiam

@tpieczka A shared project is the only wat to see what's been done, buttons don't work as well back testing on MT5 as they do on MT4

[tpieczka]

@jstap https://fxdreema.com/shared/5UYWD9c2c

Its working, buying and selling if indicator (Stoch) appears, constans SL and TP and Lot (its not a problem).
Indicator ZLHull not connected yet.
Im totally newbie, few days ago i have found FXDreema...

This EA must be controlled mostly manually depending on market conditions

[jstap]

@tpieczka So your drawing a button but not using? once per bar needs to go below your indicator block. create a fresh question for this.

[Alan.paredes2]

@jstap consulta para que se coloca este bloque 

[Alan.paredes2]

@tpieczka hola así quedarían los dos botones de compra y venta y una ventana para modificar el lot de la orden, en la ventanita podrás modificar el lote de la orden introduciendo un valor mayor a 0.01
para modificar los otros parámetros de la orden como el tp y el sl se haría igual solo habría que crean una variable para cada uno
