RUN and ON/OFF blocks linking question

[David197]

Hello,

I want to run ON/OFF blocks without making a lot of connections.
I'm trying to use RUN blocks to execute the ON/OFF blocks. Like this:

Would it be correct? have the RUN blocks or the ON/OFF to be connected by any "phisical connection?"
Something is not working on this step of my EA and I'm not sure how to use the blocks.

Thank you,
David R.

you can have a condition connected to the turn on/off blocks if the condition are true it the turn on blocks will turn on the blocks you want that are off at the moment , and the turn off blocks will turn on the blocks that are on and running .

So first try only using on/off blocks , the run block only forces the ea to run the blocks that you have entered.
Take notice that you have to write the number ( name) of the blocks you want to be executed with a comma to seperate them , no spaces between at all if i remember right.

I also think that it's better to have some Condition block that checks whether some Variable equals to true/false or 1/0... or something else.

If you have fully disconnected blocks, they are excluded from the output file. In your case this will happen, I believe. The EA generator does not check the contents of the Run block. And so many blocks to turn on/off... I think it's too much and you are doing something in the worse way.

Just in case, if you have a group of blocks and you want to prevent that group of blocks to work, it's enough to turn off only the block on the top (if there is only 1 block on the top). If the block on the top doesn't have the chance to pass, then the blocks below will never pass, even if they are not disabled.
