@general-melchett Try using groups, so only uses a set group.

@frank-2 This is probably the same block, a loss is just -profit.

@piotras10000 This depends on the TF your trading on, a 20 on the 1m will regularly go from buy to sell so could be used as a trigger, also exponential will react quicker to price, and a simple will act slower, a smoothed will act slower again, but this will change when you go from buy to sell so quicker will not necessarily be what you want, a 50 on the higher TF for example, will give you the medium term trend. What and how many you use will depend on your preferences and strategy, also you have candles <> 200MA, a common way of determining if buy or sell, normally done on 1h or above TF.

@piotras10000 I suppose this is a personal choice, for me it would be a moving average, if price on candle 1 is > price on candle 10 then trend is on the way up. This is a simple way of looking at it, and different MA's and TF's will change this.

@tonygbrobot Yes that is what I meant.

@william-1 Not with 1 block, I would use custom code to take the number then add a 0 to make 60 and add 10 to make 70, this needs to be done in a way that allows you to know which number is used for TP or SL, and I assume weather a buy or sell.

@drewliedadeuce No they create a stop if price going through the order, they place a limit if price needs to return.

@pan4pips So these DLL values go into the global variables of the platform?

@wafib In the buy/sell block you can set expiration to 1minute.

@drewliedadeuce As you have is how I would do, this has always worked for me.

@tonygbrobot In a standard condition block, if HA indicator candle open = HA indicator candle high or close then there can be no wick.

@william-1 So stop loss at 30 and take profit at 40?

@pan4pips I can possibly help you with this but are you sure you need to use global variables? A standard variable can be used to record something on a different TF or even just a condition block.

@iagnew Yes so a tick could come in, this is what makes meta trader do something, just after the price is at the right point.

You may not need to do this, test to find out.

@timberwolves Put a shared link here so things can be assessed.

@drewliedadeuce I removed the once per bar, your pending sell adjust variable was causing problems, it works when set like this.

@william-1 What do you mean by stop at? I don't see a X> happening at 1, to do this the value has to hit 0 before it can cross above.

@drewliedadeuce place a shared link here, then how everything is can be looked at.

@danielh97 Not that I know of.

@danielh97 Don't think this is possible, you can set the trading to stop until you restart, if the EA's are made elsewhere to FX you won't be able to.

This will show you how to change text so all bots can read.
