I feel like I'm taking crazy pills...any advice?

I could not have a simpler EA. On the on Tick tab, check if there is a trade. If not, buy, and set up a trailing stop for the trade. See image. I download the EA, even overwrite the file in the proper MT4 folder, even compile it, refresh it in MT4, but whenever I run the test, it creates hundreds of buy orders and has the same results no matter what I do to the EA. What am I possibly doing wrong?

It is due to the SL is so near to enter point. Pls try to put a big SL
-
thank you for the reply! That makes total sense @ganando2024 but my SL is fairly large at 2*15ATR.

@MTAB the percentage of equity should be 100 if you are willing to risk one percent , 1000 is 10% ,10 000 is 100%

@Soltee371 thanks! that still didn't work. I have the same settings, but just changed the name of my EA and that worked for some reason?

@ganando2024 Can you please share the link to the project?

@l'andorra
here it is. BTW it's Mike from your class

It works now, but only after I changed the name of the project.

Hi Mike. Great to see you here. We'll need to talk about that trailing stop block connected below a 'once per bar' block.
