Thanks Miro, gave that a try but wouldn't see the Trailing Stops.

Here's the solution I came up with in the end. Seems to work a treat:

Hi,

I'm trying to build a tool that does the following:

Manages 5-7 levels of stepping stops like this:

When trade hits +12 pips, move stop to +1
When trade hits +30 pips, move stop to +10
When trade hits +50 pips, move stop to +20
When trade hits +70 pips, move stop to +50
When trade hits +90 pips, move stop to +70

I've found the best way to do this is with the Break even blocks, but for some reason it won't trigger the 2nd breakeven block to modify the trade after the stop has been moved to +1 pips.

Here's a screenshot of my setup.

Any ideas on what the problem might be or if there is a better solution? I've tried Trailing Stop blocks and the same thing happens.

Thanks, it works now!

Hi,

I'm trying to reference a response from a webpage that I'm pinging with the "Send HTTP Request" block. The response is coming back and showing in the Alerts window, but is showing the number Zero in the Comments block. The main problem is that HTTP Response is not being recognized in the Conditions block, or it's only recognizing 0.

Here's the setup which references the only text on the webpage which is "SBUOB"

And the response come through in the alert ok:

http://prntscr.com/a4bw6g

But the Condition block does not pass. If I send it direct to the Comment only it shows "0":

http://prntscr.com/a4bwtg

Any ideas why it's not seeing the response as SBUOB and unable to reference it in the Conditions block?

Cheers

Many thanks!

____There are 2 components of each point - Time and Price. Time is not a price and Price is not a Time. Time values are like this: http://www.epochconverter.com/ Price values are like 1.23456 (depends on the symbol). This ZigZag thing returns only the Price component, but I have no idea to develop it more :)[/quote:s8yrabcz]

Thanks Dreema

It's alright, found an indicator to do that job.[/quote:s8yrabcz]

Hovedguy, are you able to share the indicator? I'm also looking for such an indicator to help draw trendlines.

Cheers

Brilliant, it worked! Thanks

Hi,

How do I extend a Trendline to infinity on the right. The left is where the price action has already happened, so extending on the right is more beneficial. Hence why I'm keen to find out how to do it.

I have turned on the option to have an endless line that goes to infinity as per this screen shot http://prntscr.com/9l4ri6 and I can see that it extends the line to infinity to the left but not to the right. I also have all the Ray's set to Yes, so can't seem to work out how to get it to extend to the right.

Here's what my chart shows: http://prntscr.com/9l4r4p

The EA is called Course EA1 if you want to take a look.

Hi,

When I use the Search option it doesn't search all the blocks, only the block section that is open.

I'm using Chrome Version 47.0.2526.106 m on Windows 10.

Can you please fix?

Cheers

Are you able to demonstrate how this can be done/achieved?

Ignore, working now.

Was probably the Ad Malware that was causing the issues I had. Fixed that an all is working fine again.

Hi,

Constants and Variables are not opening, you just get a spinning wheel, but all other actions can be clicked.

Can you please check/fix?

Cheers

Cam

No worries, I worked it out using Mod Variables and Values in the end... taxing on the brain!!

Hi again, I can't seem to get over this hurdle.

It may help if you view the project first: just check out the one called "Candy EA v1.1" and the Area called "Buy Trade Entry - Different Patterns".

Here's what I'm trying to do:

• Enter a buy trade after the following has happened:

1. within the last X (PatternsBarsBack) bars X (NumberOfPatterns) number of candlestick patterns have been formed (I'm currently working with 3 patterns but will add several more when I have sorted this out)

At the moment I'm trying to count the patterns within the last X bars and then when the count number matches the Constant Input "NumberOfPatterns" it places a buy trade.

Is this enough information for you to check to see where I'm going wrong? I've tried Counter, Formula and Modify Varialbes blocks and keep going round in circles.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers

Cam

Thanks, I'll take this new approach and see if it fits what I'm trying to do.

Cheers

Hi,

Is there an easy way to add multiple formula results together easily, e.g. 1 + 1 + 1 + 1?

Currently the only way I can think to do this is to do the first formula and they carry the result over to the second and so on. But this doesn't really work with what I'm trying to do.

Cheers

Cam

The project you reviewed is not the one I was refering to, the one I'm referring to is called "MTM Trendline EA".

Cheers

Ideally not wanting Timeframes to be an input parameter, but if that's the only way I can do it then yes.

Will have a look at the other comments you make and see if I understand what you're saying. Cheer!

I see what you mean.

From what I can see, my notification is picking up the PERIOD_CURRENT which returns zero.

There are not other options within FXdreema to change the Timeframe option to choose a period number, e.g. PERIOD_M1. Is there another way to do it?

Hi,

I'm trying to send the Timeframe information through (e.g. M5 or H1 etc...) in an "Alert Message" and it's coming through as "0" regardless of the Timeframe I place the EA on. I'm selecting Market Properties > Timeframe in the Data Row.

Is there a bug with this option, or is there something different I should be doing?
