@miro1360 Thank you so much for your reply. But I think I am still missing something here.

I don't think my client would be comfortable to share their real account information with me. Is there any other way to accomplish this? The goal is so that the client can only install it on 1 MT4 instance and that he cannot distribute the EA to anyone else.

Thank you very much. Great help.

I got the Real/Demo thing limit. I also got the time limit. But I still don't understand the key part.
Can you please explain more on this?

I want to send my EA to my client with a key. I do not want my client to be able to distribute or use this EA on more than 1 MT4 instance.

I would like my EA to work only for DEMO account.

I would like my EA to work only for certain number of days/hours.

I would like my EA to work only once certain key is entered? This key only works once.

How do I accomplish all the above?

How do I set up Trailing Stop for all my trades? I want my trade to trail based on the following logic.

1. As soon as it has 5 pips profit. Move stop to Break even + 1 pip
2. As soon a it has 10 pip profit. Move stop to 5 pip.
3. As soon as it has 15 pip profit. Move stop to 10 pip,
4. continue doing the above indefinitely in 5 pip increments.

Thanks for your reply. I will try to delete them using "Delete Objects"
But I am more interested to know why are they created? Nowhere in my EA I am creating them. Can I just stop it from being created?

I have noticed that all my EAs draw some of unwanted stuff that I do not want it to draw on my charts at the bottom on the chart.

It draws things like:

1. Spread and displays the spread.
2. Status and displays the status.
3. etc .etc

How do I get ride of all that?

@JRod78

I tried the Counter Pass n times block but something is not working right for me I am only seeing the result of last candle. and not "n" number of candles. Seems like the loop is not working as expected or for some reason its not adding the body size correctly to the variable.

One more thing I noticed which could be the reason:
In your "Candle Index Counter" Formula block...I noticed you have an extra field called "Cross Width" What is that? I don't have it in my Formula black where I am adding to the Candle number.

Thanks in Advance.

I sure try to test this and will let you guys know how it goes. Thank you very much for your suggestions.

didn't find the ATR I am looking for doing a google search.

In my block when I click "Variables" all my fields gets popped with P1, P2, P3, P4, P5....and so on like in the following screenshot. Can you tell me what is this used for?

Sorry but I still don't understand. I looked at the link you sent me but I don't follow.
So if I enable the box and it passes...then it changes to what? Can you please give an example of how it is useful?

Thanks in advance.

I want to add the Candle Body Size(pips) for not just last 2 candles like in the screenshot but for "n" number of candle and store that value to a variable. How can this be achieved?

I just realized that the ATR indicator actually gets the difference between the Hight and Low of each candle for the period specified for ATR. Then it does its average.

I cannot use this standard ATR in the EA I am trying to build. Instead I want an ATR which will do the "Open" and "Close" price of each candle instead of "High" and "Low"

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Thanks for your reply.
How do I apply to the Indicator to my chart? I tried to create the .ex4 file after setting up my blocks and copied this file to my Indicator folder on my MT4. I do see it appear as an Indiacartor but when I apply to the chart, nothing happens.

I only see options to create scripts and EA but no option for creating Indicators

Thanks for all the help. I figured it out. You cannot leave the "Label" blank

Thank you. I am trying to use the "Comment" block to display some of the things I need from the chart. But nothing is displaying besides the "Title" itself

I noticed there are rows on the "Comment" block which allows me to choose "Market Proerties" "Candle" etc etc. When I select these, they are not displayed along with my ttile.

For now I am looking for it to display in BOLD big fonts...the currency pair and the spread on it

What is the best block to use to display text on the chart?

I noticed there is an option for "Change Status to" in every block available. You can check the box and you can also enter some value in another box provided.

What is the use of this? Can you provide example? Also where can I read all about it?

Thanks in Advance.

Regards

I don't see any option to define "Global" vs "Local" variables. I am using the variable just like the screenshot you sent.

How do I ensure I am using Local or Global?
