need someone to help me get the kinks out of my ea, it is not seeing all conditions properly
-
sorry for any typos!
hello, here i have a ea composed of this simple idea. i want a ea that uses the cci indicator, the Bollinger bands indicator and last the awesome oscillator. im using all 3 is entry conditions for the ea to make a trade. when the cci cross above 300 i want the ea to consider a sell when the cci cross below -300 i want the ea to make a buy, problem is the ea does not consider crossing below for the way i have he cci current only once it goes below -300 but at that point i have to have it se to crosses above because it does not register in on the first cross over. next i wanted to a confirmation method to be used with the Bollinger bands and awesome oscillator. for both i need them to look back atleast 12 to 48 candles. i have a set Bollinger bands to a period of 10 , a shift of 0 and a deviation of 1.000. the goal is for the ea to judge bullish and bearish activity by the bands either crossing above the envelope and candle (bullish) or below the envelope and candles (Bearish) , this information is to be then back by the last condition of the awesome oscillator to judge the current bullish and bearish momentum so that the ea does not enter in a weak trend. m almost certain i was unable to correctly input thi information correctly for the awesome oscialtor idea to work as its also based of the red and green colors of the oscialator and im not sure what my ea is usng besides candles and possibly negative and positive numbers as a mean to judge what is bull ad what is bear. i need the ea to fully recognize the indicator for its intended purpose. i have a file below please have a look!

Add a shared link to see your FX project, then strip down to 1 problem that's not working.

Agreed, a shared link would make it easier to review.

That is the builder page not a shared link: project page - projects - create a shared link - open in a web page - copy and paste here

@jstap https://fxdreema.com/shared/ZXqufejed is this right?
-
I do not know if you need so many once per bars blocks, if it's not working link blocks out, then link some back in, until you fine the problem.
-
@jstap ok for starters any tips regarding a better way to set up the cci to trigger the buy condition like intended it doing it backwards.
-
I haven't used CCI in a very long time, start with testing this one block and seeing what difference the settings make. I would advise but am unsure what you expect this to do.

@jstap ok well if you can help me with the trail stop loss and take profit that’d be amazing, I’m not sure if it something I use on tick or if I need to switch to on trade and program the logic there?
-
@jstap what I’ll do is go through the blocks again. I’ll remove some of the 1 minute blocks and see if changing some candle values can help. I’m thinking I’ll make this ea study more of past history from earlier in that day so it can filter the incoming information. I think my process is held up there. The other section is the trailing stop and loss as for some reason I get it to work but my stop loss and take price are not what I set and often tripled if not doubled what I wanted. I’ll sit down and break this into pieces please keep your ears and eyes open for me, if possible can I message you privately?

Trailing stop should be on tick, put it under the yellow of a no trade block, orange of an if trade block, under a pass block, on top of just about any other block.
You can DM me, but I tend to answer on here, just because anyone can see questions asked, so use what's learnt on their own
