Thank you so much sir

Yes,. I created it with FXdreema. It works correctly in backtest but not working on live trading

Hello guys, I don't know if this is happening to me alone. I have realised that whenever I use my EAs with martingale on pairs that alow 0.001 lot my EA does not multiply after a loss. Instead it just continue to use the same 0.001 lot after a loss.

Please what could be responsible for this?

Does that mean I should not be using group numbers? And is that the same reason why when I close losing trade manually the EA does not use martingale to open next trade with double lot?

My reason for initially using group number is to prevent the EAs from interfering with each other when using them on same symbol

Hello professionals,

I observe that my EA is not using the correct magic number I set in my input. I dont understand how it automatically generated another magic number for itself.

I discovered this after I realized that when I close a trade manually on loss the EA does not use double the lot size for the next trade as programmed.

Please I will appreciate if someone can help me look into this and tell me how to correct it.

Thank you.

No, it doesn't work that way. To the best of my knowledge there is no way to do that on phone. You will need to open your pc and turn off algo trading on your platform. Or turn off the EA

Hello everyone,

I have this EA that opens a new trade with double lot size after every crossover and closes all trades when a set profit target is met. I set the EA to reset back to initial lot after closing all in profit (So it can start taking new trades from the smallest lot size) but sometimes it doesn't reset back to initiallot. So please I want to know how I can set this up properly. I dont know if it will require setting up variebles, if yes I will like someone to put me through how to set up variebles for this function. Thank you.!

@allstarengin
I have a programmer friend who creates vps for us. Optim8zed for running MT4 and mt5 platforms efficiently. He only charges $15 per 6months and he gives 48 to 72hours access for free to test and confirm that the service is good for you before making payment. I have personally been using his service since about 2 years.

If you would be interested in this let me know so I can link you up.

@ambrogio .

Thank you so much. it worked.
Much appreciated

Hello everyone,

Please I will like to make my EA able to check the type (either buy or sell) of last open position
when there are many open positions before placing new trade. I have tried to do this myself but could not find any block with such function. Please help me make suggestions.

Thank you.

@l-andorrà said in How to make my EA count candles after a condition is met.:

But what happens if a new dot appears on the chart before those 30 candles have been passed since the previous one? Should that invalidate the previous count and begin a new one from the new dot?

Yes exactly. A new count should begin if it happens that way. I only want the EA to place trades if there has been minimum of 30 or more candles in between the last dot and the current one.

@sktsec said in How to make my EA count candles after a condition is met.:

Do you mean the number of candles between signals ? Maybe you can loop back to locate the last signal candle whenever a new signal appear

Could you please show/tell me how to do the loop back?

Hi

I would like to make my EA count a certain number of candles after my custom indicator appears for the first time before placing a trade when the custom indicator appears the second time. 

This is the link to my project. I believe it should work like this but its not working. https://fxdreema.com/shared/9mnIGmaab

What i simply want the EA to do is to count a certain number (eg. 30) of candles (equal or greater than) or wait for a set period of time (eg. 30mins) after a green buffer appears and place sell trade when the red buffer appears and vice versa.

I hope that is exactly what you are asking about.

@jstap

This is my data window. I dont know if this can help.

What is data window please?

@jstap I want to believe this image shows that the indicator has buffers already or not so?

This is how I set up the indicator on FXdreema, I hope its correct?

I have tried to use in the EA setting it up like this but its not working

I have also tried it this way with and without other conditions but still not working.

Hello

I am trying to create an EA with this custom indicator but I couldnt get it to work. I dont know maybe I didnt get the settings correctly.

Here is my test project link: https://fxdreema.com/shared/UFV5Xbeue

The indicator works for support and resistance.

I have tried indicator appear block and indicator visible blocks with and without other conditions but to no avail. I will appreciate if anyone can help me look into this.

This is how the indicator looks on live chart >>> http://prntscr.com/vli_odWlWzRZ

Thank you so much for the clarification. Much appreciated. I will definitely look for more articles if I need more info.

Also how can I factor in commissions/spread in my back testing?
