Not sure.

But if you aren't using tick data, then downloading your own tick data might solve your issue.

You'd want to use quality tick data anyway, anything else will skew your results

It works on MT5, I just started MT4 project and manually put all the same blocks and settings. Now it doesn't compile, just gives these errors:

I'm pretty new to fxdreema, so some of you may find the fix instantly.

There are two things I need to change, but don't know how.

1. As of now, it only takes a short trade when the swing low that was violated was ABOVE the buyside sweep.
   No clue why it does this, I tried using x> and x< at the flags that I set, but that just fucks things up more.

2. If buyside has been taken, it should disregard the sellside. Can't take a buy and sell in the same day.

Hope some of you can help me with these finishing touches, I'm still learning. Only my second day using it.

@cosmo I thank you for fixing my problem too. Was struggling with my own EA and your example fixed it.

Green line represents the high of a range that got crossed above, lower pink link represents most recent swing low. Once closed below that it should've executed short.

It should have executed short on that candle close, didn't execute anything...

I've been able to have the EA identify swing-points and draw an object at each one.

But I don't know how to refer to those in condition blocks, so that I can have the EA complete some action after we close above/below a swing-point.

Does using a condition block with the "Value" option with "Numeric" and then referring to the variable "swing low" or "swing high" use the price values of these swing-points?

Help is appreciated

This is where I'm at now, it is ignoring the candle close above/below swing-point

@DG8805 Thanks for your assistance.

But then what block do I use?

I want to define swing points so I can refer to them in the strategy.

Do I just put two conditions and link them together like that?

@GTOAT777 It's not a strategy in itself.

It's just a component of a strategy I need to implement, but don't know how.

How do I have the EA identify swing highs/lows? I know it is possible, I've seen trading nut do it on youtube, but he didn't reveal exactly how he did it.

I somehow need the EA to identify a 3 candle formation, of which the high/low of the middle candle is the highest/lowest.

@l-andorrà I was able to fix it, thank you.

But now I realized the 'Every "n" Bars' after 'No position/order' only makes it check for a trade every 10 bars, instead of making sure it doesn't take a 2nd trade within 10 bars of a closed trade.

Any help you can offer on this?

What am I doing wrong? It just executes buy and sells at random, ignoring the conditions.

I'm very new to fxdreema, this is my first project.

I just started fxdreema. My EA works fine in testing, until I try to optimize. I'm using it in the Forex market, so I don't think this applies to me?
