So I'm trying to figure out what is what on mt4 and fxdreema when it comes to the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator.

So I want to figure out which ones are the clouds. The Senkou are the cloud lines I'm guessing, correct?

All i know is that bucket of trades blocks are not for that purpose. I think you may need to do a little bit of custom mql blocks to get that strategy in place. @miro1360 would know how to better advise you than I would.

why would you use white text on white background???

so what about the brokers that support mt4, do you think they will also abandon the mt4 plateform and only stick to mt5?

it was bound to happen. However, do these ea work on metatrader 5?

@shomefun

omg shomefun. Thats a lot of blocks. What are you trying to accomplish? Can you explain your strategy a little? Looks very interesting by the way.

alright, this is something that the admin will have to look into. Fxdreema will check it out as soon as he see's this post.

I hear what you're saying. This update is a great major update, but it also comes with some bugs. Hopefully by the end of this week or at least next week as everyone shares their problems, we may be bug-free.

now when you say you are trying to upload the indicators, do you mean upload them and get them into the EA and have them working on the backtest? or do you mean that they are not uploading into the my custom indicator on fxdreema web version? If it's the second option, are you uploading mql4 files from the internet or are you uploading ex4 files and typing in the parameters manually?

@miro1360 @YOSEF

I'm guessing the logic is that it takes the pivot from the monthly charts, the weekly charts, and the daily charts and counts how many times price floated around those pivots. Just a guess.

so why is it that they never provide the mql4 file?

Ok tell me this, have you ever uploaded an indicator with ex4 file and without knowing the source code buffers and parametters you were able to type all that information in to get it work?

@kingfathom

I would assume so

I was referencing to the steps. Their teaching method is amazing and if you can apply that teaching method to your fxdreema trademark you would save so much of your time and our time in figuring this out, meanwhile, you won't have to repeat yourself a thousand two hundred times.

@KingFathom,

If you're talking about the waiting and updating part for a, my indicator, I was having the same problem when using an EX4 file from mt4 in the open folder => MQL4 => Indicators. What I found out is that if you use a MQL4 Source File rather than an EX4 file, that is the only way things would work. Because if Lopez was to give the MQL4 Source File than you would have his code and he wouldn't want that.

aaaahhhaaa, that could be it. I'm using the web-based version. I didn't even know there was a downloadable desktop version. I just jumped right into the web-based and started playing around with it. I even think the web based one looks nicer lol.

Alright, ima respond to your private message right after I finish having dinner.

Hey, I'm pretty new myself as well, however, I have been excelling pretty quickly I hope lol. Check out my two recent threads. There should be some good information that I think can help you get started and not get into the sort of problems I faced and had to figure out myself. I will send you a private message, however, I prefer to exchange numbers and talk this over the phone or text since that I think the communication time would be faster and better for each of us to understand. We can discuss that part in private message.

For question number 3, no it's not the same thing.

Ok, so here's the next problem that I am having at the moment.

http://puu.sh/rXKV8/e002c9152e.jpg

What's happening here is that the EA is taking more trades than it is suppose to during the same bar, even while I have the ONE TRADE PER BAR block attached.

while in some cases, the indicator will appear a trade signal, it'll take the trade and close it right away for some reason, meanwhile, other times it won't do that.

and other cases, no trade signal and it will take the trade. Not good.

However, if I use this trading strategy, I get good results. Why, I can't figure it out. http://puu.sh/rXLzD/b562e674e6.png

Alright, I just wanted to fill you in that I have figured it out and that was what I came up with and it was able to work. However, I am still having a few problems that I'm sure I can figure out in time, such as, well for one it keeps on opening multiple trades at random times when a condition is met and closing them right away. For that issue I think ima have to add an ONE TRADER PER BAR block or something, however, I can't exceed the 10 step since I'm not a SUBSCRIBER to fxdreema,..... YET lol. There was one more problem that I was having and that was during some trades which the condition is met, it wouldn't open any trades and at times it would. Weird.

Nonetheless, when I have some more free time and I finish up my homework for my college class I'll be spending a lot more time playing around with these blocks.

Thank you so much fxdreema for the lovely and hard work you are putting into this. Your work will not go unnoticed.

__Many many people are using fxDreema every day. Blocks like "No trade" and "Buy now" are used in virtually every project, and this happens for years. This means that they are rock solid and there is veeeery little chance for something to be wrong in them, especially in backtesting.

So, if you see multiple trades, there is one reason for that - Buy now/Sell now runs too often. Why? I have this: http://prntscr.com/czc6yd Obviously trades are opened and immediately closed. In your case you have. If I disable both "Close trades", the problem does not happen at all. This means that the problem is in "Close trades". Yes, what happens is that a new trade is created and then on the next tick this trade is closed. Because Condition 17 and 4 are true at the same time, or Condition 21 and 8. What you can do is to make sure that "Close trades" is not reached right after the creation of the trades. I can't say exactly how, it depends. Once per bar or whatever. And if you study this example (for example), you will see that I don't use special blocks: https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-buy-sell- ... conditions It depends :)[/quote:96dccz1u]

I kinda understand and still don't understand what you're saying fxdreema. I did exactly the same thing you did with my custom indicator and still no success.
http://puu.sh/rWSCP/72886cd27d.png

I even tried it with the INDICATOR APPEAR blocks and still was having no success. Matter fact, at least with the INDICATOR APPEAR block it was opening a buy trade to say the least, however, unfortunately it wasn't opening the sell and just hitting the take profit.

I want to ask you to elaborate more or give us better examples with different indicators rather than always using the moving average example, however, I fear that I have already over burdened you. I'm just trying to understand exactly what's going so I don't have to keep on asking the same questions over and over lol. Sorry

Why do you have your "CLOSE POSITION" after the CONDITION and before the BUY & SELL?

Also, why don't your buy and sell have take profits?

Are you trying to have the crossover sell when it crosses down and when it re-crosses up it closes that sell and puts a buy trade?

I think I'm somehow trying to do the same thing over here. Let me know what you think maybe we can learn form each others mistakes.

It would be nice if somehow you can incorporate a tutorial as your next project into this website such as the https://www.freecodecamp.com/ has done to teach individuals how to code.
