@horizion
do you mean , something like this?

@horizion
for your first question:
if you see on the top left corner of the screen right above the ".mq4" button you will see the "project" button click on it and then click on new project from there you can choose if you want to create MQ4 Project or MQ5 project

for your second question :
if you are asking about using 2 indicators , you can simply use two condition block and connect them together

@Andermaiden2nd
thanks a lot

@Andermaiden2nd
thanks for your reply
can you show me the settings of the modify sl block?

@fxfun
Thanks a lot Fxfun I am gonna try it and really hope that it works
otherwise i have to drop a very good idea just because the SL is not getting modified

@miro1360
thanks for the tutorial.
can you please help me with this : https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/5178/modify-stoploss

hello i am trying to modify the stoploss of trades
i am using a Dot indicator , which places the dot on the after calculating the atr and adding 2 pips extra
let say ATR value is 0.0012 then it places the dot 14 pips (12 pips from atr value and 2 extra pips) below or above the the candle low or high

and this is what i did in the modify stops block

its working perfectly
let say when a buy is opened on the current candle it places the SL at the dot of the current candle and when there is a new low in that candle it modify the stop accordingly
but when that current candle (on which the trade is opened ) closes, the stoploss is automatically removed

can anybody tell me what am i doing wrong

@Andermaiden2nd
thanks , appreciate your help

how can i put stop loss in this manner:
so this is the scenario
long trades are opened on the new candle open when a certain condition is met
so when the new candle opens and the trade is taken then ea should place a stoploss of the current ATR value from the candle low with additional 4 pips below the low for example : if the ATR value when the trade is opened is let say 0.0012 then the stop loss should be placed at 16 pips below the current candle low (ATR value and aditional 4 pips )
and when there is a new low in the current candle (the candle on which the trade is opened) then the stoploss should be moved accordingly
is it possible ?

@timmyhanke thanks

@timmyhanke
well thats one way of doing it but how much spread do you think i should use in spread filter
and will it work during the back test?

@fxDreema well some indicators plot news time on chart and maybe we can use the object on chart attribute or something like that

any way to add some kind of filter so that whenever there is a major news event nearby then EA wont take any trade for specific amount of time
some people might suggest to turn off the EA during the News Events , but i am looking for some other way (preferably automated )
thanks

@miro1360
and one more thing is it possible to store first day's balance in a variable "a" and then on the next day compare "a" with the second day's balance "b" and if b is greater than a+20 then dont take trade and if b<a+20 then keep taking trades

@miro1360
will this block compare the equity with the balance or will it check the balance increments and decrements for specified time?

@miro1360
hey thanks for the tutorial
can you help me with this : https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/5162/any-way-to-do-this

@yalgaar
thanks i tried it that way but how will be the variable be incremented each day automatically ?
i tried using modify variable block but i must have been doing something wrong

hello is there a way to do this :
is there a way to make it so that EA does not take any trade for one day if the total profit is above a certain level ? let say 20$ for that day
for example we deposit 100 $ and start ea on that 100$ account
ea took some trades and all the trades are now closed and it will check if the total balance is above 100$(deposited amount) by 20$ or not and if it is then dont take anymore trades for that day.

and on the next day the initial balance for second day is 120$ (100 DEPOSIT and 20 previous day profit)
and when the total balance for the second day is 140$ (i-e; 120 previous balance and 20$ second day profit) it stop taking anymore trades for that day
on the third day the initial balance will be 140$ and when the balance for day 3 gets to 160$ (previous day initial balance and current day's profit) it stop taking anymore trades for that day
and on the 4th day the initial balance will be 160$ and when there is profit of 20$ on 4th day that is (total balance of 180$ 160$ initial balance and 20$ profit of 4th day ) the EA stop taking trades and then starts again the next day
and so on.....

i tried using the block " check profit (period of time)" but it didnt quite worked , may be i used it in a wrong way
also used variables to store the previous balance and current balance but i am not so good with the variables so it didnt worked

@miro1360
