    • RE: How to set trades lot size from newest to oldest?

      @andrew-b Hello,

      I don't believe there's a straight forward way to do this if you have a custom sequesnce that is not an addition or a multiplier of the previous size unless someone else here on the forum can lead us to a simple answer. However, to do this, you will probably need to place a variable in the lot size of the trade, and after that do the following in the screenshot for the amount of number of trades you want:

      That's how I would approach this. Good Luck 🙂

    • RE: Hi I wana ask some question where is the absolute count in trade statistic consecutive losses count?

      @zarbitz Hello,

      I can think of one way to get the results you need. Create a variable and with every closing trade, add 1 to it, and after a winning trade modify it to reset. In the following image is an example which you may need to fix.

    • RE: How to get 99% back testing

      @raiderspaz @TipsyWisdom @l-andorrà Hello,

      This may be a bit off topic, but when you have a strategy to trade on MT5 and try backtesting it on different broker servers with their own data, you will find that your results will vary even though the differences are small between different broker prices. What that showed me throughout the years is that:

      1. MT5 is the simplest way to get the data of my broker.
      2. Best to optimize your EA for your broker and MT5 is the way to go.
      3. If you see that your strategy loses or fails based on data accuracy, then keep in mind that different brokers already have differences in live prices and that shows me that accurate data is not the important factor in your backtesting or knowing that a strategy is a winner.

      I believe that a good strategy should care that much on how accurate the data is. I mean if a pip here and there affects it that much, that's not a good strategy to me. Trying different brokers should just shows how solid the strategy is or how overoptimized it is.

      That's my opinion and I wonder guy what do you think?

      @nico1397 ATR is an indicator that gives a value, so do you mean that at a certain ATR value you want 50% closed?

    • RE: Optimisation

      @cliff-0 always possible to over optimize. my recommendation to you is to use out of sample data. meaning if you want to optimize, keep a year or two out of the optimization dates then look at the results, choose the ones you think are best and test on this out of sample year. if it fails, then most probably the results are over optimized. just keep in mind that if you start testing on this out of sample data, then minor tweaks do not work since the out of sample data will be considered in-sample.

    • RE: Is this possible, because this would be AWESOME!

      @nico1397 I would assume that you would have to start the EA with the (if trade) block and use the filter manually opened trade within the block. and depending on how many chans of blocks you have, maybe have the (if trade) block connected to (turn ON blocks) block and have it turn ON your chains of blocks. but that would mean that at (on int) you will have to set up the initiation to turn off the starting blocks on (on tick) except the (if trade) block

      https://fxdreema.com/shared/Yok72dbhd

      this is a quick example

    • RE: How to set trades lot size from newest to oldest?

      @andrew-b you're welcome 🙂

      In the (buy now) block, next to the trade size you have it ticked. You will need to remove that tick cuz now its a variable and not a constant.

    • RE: mt5 to mt4

      @max-c hello,

      I think that not all block are compatible with MT4 and 5 at least that was with the older versions of fxdreema. Now they may work because I do that at times but I do test to be sure. You can try copying them and then do a quick backtest. If it works then it works.

      @vonmunchy
      I was thinking something like this image. Here you will have an initial trade size and the reset be 0.01 and then with every opened trade, it will be multiplied with the multiplier.

    • RE: Best way to exit trade Automatically

      @gozey Hello,

      In my opinion there is no best way and it all depends on your specific strategy. In general you may wanna try a trailing stop that will actually exit the trade as the market reverses.

      This already exists. This is an example where this block will filter and start trading from the 5th day to the 25th day of the month.

    • RE: Draw lines at price Levels

      @mmbinvest Just a note, for me to get notified with your reply, you will need to tag me @q8carpenter

      As for your idea, let me show you a simple way that i would do the drawing part without the rest of your strategy and you can go from there.

      As you can see in the screenshot, if you chose YES and YES, then the line will be drawn as soon as you pass .000 or .500 , but if you chose NO and YES, then the same line will be redrawn keeping only one line on the chart.

      Now that on my image I have visually backtested tested and it works. As I don't know what exactly you want for the rest of your strategy, I can not say what you should do but if this doesn't work for you, then there must be a problem with another block in your chain where it is not passing.
