Well, there is one input field for extra stuff - http://prntscr.com/btflb4
In this field you can write custom conditions using Order...() functions. If the trade does not match the condition, it will be excluded. I used StringToTime(), but everything that returns "datetime" values can be used instead

Each candle has few components - 4 prices (Open, High, Low and Close), Volume and Time. What is that Time... this is an integer (whole number) value that actually looks like this - http://www.epochconverter.com/. My idea was to compare the Close Time of the last closed trade with that candle Time. What "For each Closed Trade" does is to select that last closed trade, so we can read it's Time and compare it with the candle's Time. If the trade's Time is > than the candle's Time, this means that the trade was closed after the candle has started.

The thing is that there is no block like "How many trades were closed at bar X", that's why I did that with these pink block. But such a block sounds like a good idea actually 🙂

"Once per bar" does very different things, it does not care if there are trades or not. But if it can be used for the logic, why not.

No, expiration time is not linked with candles, it's N minutes after the creation of the trade. Technically, in the Comment of the trade some information is written and then the EA reads this information and decides when to close that trade. This is for trades. For pending orders, their expiration works on the server.

I think I don't understand your candles. I decided that you want to open trades at certain pips away from the first trade and with different lot sizes. But if this is something like renko... maybe just use renko.

Candle Time. So, go to your History Center and you will see that each candle has O, H, L, C, Volume and... Time. This is the rounded time at which the candle is positioned. For H1 we have candles at 00:00, 01:00, 02:00 and so on.
As a variable, the Time is an integer value, a whole number value. Also known as Epoch or Unix Timestamp. The number of seconds since 01.01.1970. Here is more - http://www.epochconverter.com/

Thanks for all your answers! 🙂

__Sad. I remember these errors when I was playing with Core Liquidity back then (or whatever the name of the broker was). It looks that they still exists. Is it possible that the use of EA signals the broker to disable trading? I don't know actually. If you didn't had any problems before and now after you started using EAs the problems started, make me know[/quote:hz6amqyg]

The EA works perfectly in GDMFX. All I need to do is make sure to change the SL and TP settings from fixed pips to No Stop-Loss and No Take-Profit.

Thanks again for your helpful posts!

__I think you are talking about something like speech bubble or just free notes that can be placed anywhere. I was thinking about this for some time as well. By the way you can always use Areas to vosually put multiple block into one area. Areas also have title and description.[/quote:34dc78uy]

Yes, this is what I was thinking. Some free text and possibly lines and boxes for visual grouping. 🙂

Yes, but Zig-Zag repaints so much that I just don't understand how anyone can work with it. Semafor is similar. What can I say.

You have the options. If you don't understand something, you can ask me how it works. If you think that some option shoud do something, but instead it does something else, then there are 2 reasons for that - 1) You misunderstood the option (probably I used wrong words to describe it) or 2) There is a bug. But if you understand the option correctly and there is no bug, then what is the problem? Maybe the indicator does not work as you expect. Then you can use "Trace" in Visual Mode to see how things are working realtime. I did that, but again, I don't understand those zig-zag indicators.

Well, note that when you backtest, you start with 0 trades in the history. This is sometimes the reason to not be able to open the first trade. I'm not sure that this is the case here, but probably

If know what I am touching in the day. I don't post most of the fixes I do, but I know that if today I am doing something specific, I can expect in the end of the day to have reports for problems about this thing. But when someone reports about something else and it doesn't sound familiar to me, then it's something that was there for long time and I didn't noticed it. Or something very specific is wrong on it's side. But anyway, if I am asking for more info, this means that I can't replicate the problem on my end or I don't know exactly how 🙂

What "looking back" means to you? This is to walk in each candle one after another and look at the value of the indicator for each candle. But if the value is like this, what can you expect 🙂

Ok, just put that * before the name of the constant

Reading "It doesn't...." I understand that this is the way it is right now and it needs to be other way. I also assume that the screenshot shows the problem.

Ok, this is what I have -

You can see the price labels. They represent the signals that the block produce. Tell me which label you don't want to appear? Or which arrow you expect to appear, but it doesn't?

(it's funny how the golden labels ends with 001, this is probably some bug and I will fix it later)

Again, notice the settings in block 3 - http://prntscr.com/ascatm
http://i.imgur.com/6AspMsp.png

What this block does with these particular settings is to select only one trade - the one with the lowest profit. Why? Because the trades are sorted by "Profitable last", which means something like "Losable first" and then it is set to work with only 1 trade in "Not more that N trades", which is set to 1

Thanks for your help. I will give it a try! 🙂
