Just a simple question about slippage.
When using the 'But Now' block - the default value is 4.
Is this 4 pips, or 4 pipettes?

Also can any other value (apart from above) be put in this field?

Thanks for you help Morpheus_0
In summary - I want the EA to trade BOTH the EURUSD & USDJPY during the given hours (EA will be on BOTH markets at the same time).
When there are more than 3x consecutive losses during those hours - trading stops for BOTH markets for the rest of the day.

I have made the suggested updates - any other help is appreciated.

Hoping someone can help me with this - I THINK I've done this correctly.

Block 2: Between 00:00 and 10:00 each day
Block 3: No more than 3 consecutive losses for EURUSD & USDJPY markets (consecutive losses for BOTH markets)
Block 4: If more than 3 consecutive losses - no more trades for the rest of the day.
Block 5: If less than 3 consecutive losses - the following blocks continue to pass normally.

Your help is appreciated!

@jstap - thanks for you help

Can someone please help.
In the example shown - I assume I need 2 x separate trailing stop 'blocks".
This is because I want the TS to trail above/below Highest Price/Lowest Price candle period. This would obviously be based on whether the trade is a buy or sell.

Am I doing this correctly?

Can someone please help:
I want create an EA which activates when the 20 Moving Average crosses below the Pivot Point for the current day.
Should I change the 'Pivot Point' Timeframe in the 2nd block to Daily in the example below?

Hi All,
I have an EA which sends an email (via MT4) once a trade is executed.
I have information such as time, SL & TP levels, Market etc in this email.

I would like to include the actual risk amount (in $) sent in this email - is this possible?
I have looked extensively at options listed in the 'Send Email' block but cannot find anything.

Thanks in advance for your help

Thanks @l-andorrà & @jstap for your responses.
Here is the link to the project:

This project is based on a SMA crossover.
When I talk of STOPS LEVEL (as per my original post) I am not talking of stop loss.
Stop Level is set for each market (I assume by the broker) and can be found in MT4 'Market Watch', then right click a market, 'Specification'.
My understanding is this is the minimum distance permitted between current price & entry price (and SL??) for a pending order.
This becomes a problem when prices closes near the top of the previous candle (LONG), especially when trading exotics (the stop levels can be significantly higher).

Thanks

I have a problem which I'm hoping someone can help me solve.

I created an EA which places a pending order above the high of the previous candle with a price offset of 3 pips (LONG).
However, I'm getting a few error codes on MT4 (130: invalid SL or TP).
I also trade some of the exotics (e.g USDSEK) and the error rate is much higher - which I assume is based on the higher spread.
After doing a lot of research I think the problem is based on the actual STOP LEVEL (min. distance allowed between current price & entry) of the market being traded.

Is there some simple way around this - apart from changing the price offset for each market traded?
Thanks in advance for your help.

jstap Many thanks for this . . . after thinking about it, your solution makes a lot more sense.

I'm new to fxDreema - have learned a lot from this fantastic program, but have now run into a problem.
I'm hoping someone can help me please?

1. Simple MA crossover

2. ORDER is created - with SL & TP
   (on Tick)

3. Should the ORDER not activate to a trade & market reverses below the SL level on the ORDER - I then want the ORDER removed.

I've created a 'guess' at how it would work, but I don't its correct (on Chart).

Thanks an advance for your help
