I had this with at the least 2 of my EAs. Not sure if this is happening due to the new update. I read the new update thread but I didn't notice anyone mention about this issue. So though this might be just issues with me.

When I download my EA in the .ex4 format and copy it to my "Experts" folder in MT4 so I can use it. But once I refresh it in MT4...I do not see the EA in the list....also my .ex4 file disappears on the "Experts" folder.

The above is happening only with the the EA's that I am downloading now. All works fine with the EAs that I had downloaded before.

Can this be done?

In my "Buy now" block, please look at the comment.

I want it to to appear as " Long Trade 1"
Instead it appears as "Long Trade c::Group"

Please help

fxDreema is the best product I have come across to build EAs. But I wish I could also build indicators with it. Is there anyway to build indicators as well?

If not can someone please recommend a product similar to fxDreema that would help me build my own indicators?

Just to clarify my questions:

I am looking for some transparency about the trailing that is happening. I want to know when my trailing starts, what it set the stop as, when the stop moves....etc etc

We are able to see all this on regular trailing by just looking at the respective chart of that pair or check their SL or TP. But how do I check it for this block?

@keanzoe said in Trailing Money Loss (Group of Trades) block:

Im not sure about your question.. Are you referring about strategy tester? Run your ea there and you will see exactly how your trailing works,,

What is a strategy tester? Can you provide details please?

Can someone please help on this?

Thank you.

I know this should be very easy but is there a block to do this? If not can someone give me the custom code to convert a value into its absolute value?

e.g. of what I am looking for:

I will have a variable for the value could be a position number or a negative number. I want to convert this always in a positive number.

-3 should become 3
3 should stay 3
-5.987 should become 5.987

@fxDreema said in How to find out Buy Price of my existing Trades?:

1. https://fxdreema.com/shared/053yS3uA
2. Now this is a little bit more complicated. In "For each Trade" I added the ability to sort trades by profit, but there is no sorting by lot size. So you can get the trade with the biggest profit, but not the one with the biggest lot size. Anyway, it depends on what money management you are using, maybe the one with the biggest lot size is the latest one, or the oldest one?

This does help me to get my buy price of my last trade. But this will not help me get the buy price of the trade which has the maximum lots. Is there any way?

My open trades will have no connection between profit on it and lot size.

Is there a way to monitor the internal working of this block? I mean when I use the "Trailing Stop" block I can watch it setting my SL for my existing trades. What about this block? How do I know the point when it started trailing? How do I know when it moves the Money Loss stop line?

I just want to be able to know what /if proper Tailing is happening.

I would like to store the "Buy Price" of my existing single/multiple trades in a variable.

I want the Buy Price based on the following:

1. Last Trade taken.
2. Trade that has the biggest lot size.

Can someone please help with this?

Is there a way to make EA run a script?

I want my EA to run a created script. Is this possible?

Currently as soon as I start my EA everything under "Once per bar" will execute immediately.
I want all blocks under "Once per bar" to execute only on next bar.

How do I stop it from running it immediately and wait for next bar to appear?

I want my Block 2 to run only after 10 seconds interval of Block 1. How can this be achieved?

Thank you so much!!!

I used to do Object oriented programming many years back. It would allow me to create all kinds of objects and set its properties and could write my own code.

fxDreema gives me a similar feel. I was wondering if there was a way I can align group of blocks (vertical or horizontal) (left or right or centered)

I was also wondering if I could size all my blocks the same by selecting group of blocks that I want to be same sized.

This feature would help me keep my work more presentable and clean. Is this doable at this point?

how to assign an ID like 1,2,34....to the bucket id instead of a color? I might also need more buckets for my EA

@fxDreema please help me

@gharti said in Break Even Point Calculation:

@cheaponreay01 give ea instruction close all positions once total balance is 0

Did you mean total balance on the account? This will not work since there might be number of other trades open as well (at least in the trading strategy I use)

Is there a way to find out total balance on bunch of trades with certain criteria?
