is it possible to have loop start from a chosen candle ID? Maybe this could be made into a custom block? If so I have no idea how to do so and am assuming it would be quite difficult.

@vishala: I will change and see what happens.
It is the ID I get, this works perfectly as the blue/red ID doesn't change for the current blue/red until its a few candles past it.

How do I set pending order to cancel if price reaches the TP before pending is activated? I can't set to same condition as original TP as the buffer level will of most likely changed.

If I set risk to % of EN to TP the EA wont back test.

Thanks

I have now used Miro1360's amazing tutorial to use the standard ZigZag, the custom displayed slightly different on the chart, but this should suffice for now.

@l-andorrà thank you. I know how to get the previous candle dot value, getting a EA to find the previous dot is what I need, this could be the candle ID or price. I have tried for 3 days now and I do not think it is possible with the current available blocks.

This is the latest version but it still doesn't show the previous dot value.

I have created this but it only tells me the current red or blue price position, it is only their when price is increasing or decreeing, it would be nice if it stayed visible in-between price rising or falling but I don't really need this info. I still can't get previous dot price though.

Hi l'andorra, it does repaint but only the current dot, I am only wanting to reference one of the previous dots. thank you

I have this custom indicator:0_1604796249486_Swing_ZZ.mq4

Does any one know if it is possible to know whether, after a red dot has the last candle closed below the last blue dot, or whether after a blue dot has the last candle closed above the last red dot? Maybe a way to store the previous dot price value into a variable. Many thanks.

@roar: Brilliant thank you.

I am trying to place a pending buy at the middle point between the high and low within a certain time, no matter what changes I make it will not achieve a pending, I cannot even get the idea to run in a back test. Any help is much appreciated.

@l-andorrà Ok, thank you

@l-andorrà I can't see it when looking at market properties, for a buy I would like to set pending at the highest candle close for the previous 5 candles.

@l-andorrà I see the option when looking at candle, but not when looking at market properties so I can select highest or lowest open or close over multiple candles I don't.

thank you

@l-andorrà thanks for reply, do you mind showing/explaining as I don't seem to be able to find the option?

Is it possible to set a pending buy or sell and a stop loss at candle body (open or close), rather than high or low (wick)?

@l-andorrà I see, thank you

@jstap To answer my own question, yes you can: https://fxdreema.com/shared/cKbpaiRWc

Is it possible to trail stop loss by moving average? For example, you set MA to 20 and candle ID to 5 so after 5 candles the stop moves and then every candle after to the position of the MA.

If you search for close then you will see 2 blocks, 1 to close profitable trades and 1 to close losable trades.
