Please help

I want to match this criteria:

"Candle close in upper 20% of range." Is this correct?

So I managed to do most of it with the formula block using the candle properties however I'm stuck with doing things like
30% of the range of the last 3 days?
I couldn't see any way of doing that.

i want to be able to create this condition:

open of yesterday's candle (minus) close of 2 days ago is greater than 30% of ( today's close + close of yesterday )
How do I make a formula out of this.
Does it have to be custom code?

I want to be able to move my stop loss to breakeven after the condition for which I got into the market has changed

Thanks for the reply. Is there any example of using variables to seperate buy and sells anywhere I can use?

Hello Gents

I'm using a time bomb but I don't want and more trades in the opposite direction. If the buy time bomb is triggered then I want to suppress the sell timebomb until the positions are closed. I want them to run on a first come first serve basis. If the buy is triggered then only more buys and no sells. After they're closed by my condition, if sells are triggered then buys are suppressed and wait until sells etc so everyone has a turn!

I don't mind either one adding more to their positions. Just don't want the other one interfereing.

I've got an example here but the buys and sells are competing with each other.
Thanks in advance.

I am looking to close all trades if I've made say $50 ... that is based on my P/L. I have seen a few functions but they are based on individual trades. I want one for the account.

@Voodoogodman
I don't think I understood what you meant. This is what I did:

And this is what I'm getting:

I'm missing something here!

I'm trying to set a stop loss based on a percentage of the ATR. I am able to select the ATR as an indicator for the stop loss but not sure what to do next.

Is there anyway to determine support and resistance? i.e on the 5min chart sell when we crash through support etc?
I am really wondering why there are so many lagging indicators available but I'm not seeing a lot of things related to price action. Can someone point me in the right direction if I'm wrong.

Hi Folks

I am looking for a very simple way of determining a trend by comparing different timeframes. So for example if D1 & H1 and M30 are trending in a certain direction place an order etc.

Thanks

Hi All

Perhaps this is a newbie problem. I exported the example here https://fxdreema.com/demo/simple to backtest but all I keep getting is expert advisor self terminated. I'd tried out a more complex system earlier and got the same issue so I thought i'd go for the simplest and I'm getting the same error.

It looks like the problem is me but I just can't seem to figure out why. There are number of questions on this in the forum but everyone seems to figure it out but never explain what they were doing wrong!

Can anybody help?
thanks in advance
