    @RazordLid

    Been ‘playing’ with trading for too many years. Decided to try and automate my approach as keep going off the rails by changing approaches and not being systematic.

    • High and low of previous day time range

      I what to capture the high and low of a start range from the previous day although cannot make this work. I don’t want to do this with candles but server time start and end - e.g. 01:00-08:59 of the previous day, using server time. Could anyone assist with this as I am stumped? Thanks!

    • RE: Candle pattern logic EA question

      Great - good advice!
      I am pretty pleased I can develop a reasonable strategy in fxdreema in a couple of weeks.
      I am going to see if I can get the much refined version of this done within the week.

    • RE: why is backtesting slow?

      I have just see this comment about MT4/MT5 @l-andorrà
      Are there any specific limitations with MT5 as that is what I am using?

    • RE: Candle pattern logic EA question

      Thanks - I recreated the whole EA and now it functions. I think I was not recording the variable correctly and that was the root cause.
      Next is to make it profitable!
      I still think this might be overly complicated still, although this is what I have tried to group it up as -is this a better layout?:

    • RE: Very basic variable question

      Thanks for the suggestion. I am still learning the best way to run through the logic..
      Out of interest, in terms of the does the logic in fxdreema; would it wait in this logic tree until an orange condition applies, or does it exit on the first yellow, and then restart on the next tick?

    • RE: Very basic variable question

      I have realised that I should be incrementing variables with the white / orange / yellow boxes:

    • Very basic variable question

      I have a problem were I cannot increment a variable.
      I want to count each bear candle and when I count 2, enter a sell. This is just to get the logic to work and I realise that it only counts 1 and then seems to stop. Could someone
      guide me on where my logic is wrong?

      I wonder if @l-andorrà or @roar could help please?

    • RE: Candle pattern logic EA question

      Thanks for that! I have moved it and that hasn't remedied it, although I have not used the on time tab before so good to know that is the right place for it.
      The core issue seems to be the bull / bear / bear logic. I have stripped this out and when I run this on 5 months worth of data (Pepperstone, Every tick based on real ticks) I only get 9 trades which is wrong.
      What this should be doing is looking for a 3 candle pattern of Candle 3 (Bull), Candle 2 (Bear), Candle 1 (Bear) and then trigger the trade.
      Would it be possible for you to test this and see if you equally get very few trades?

    • Candle pattern logic EA question

      Hi- I am working up this EA and am struggling to get the sell logic working properly. Once I have resolved
      I would look to replicate it to the buy side.
      The basic logic is:

      • take note of the Asian high and low (I know this is not the full Asian range, although I read that fxdreema has an issue with going past 00:00 to the previous day, so wanted to cap it there for initial testing)
      • wait for price to cross the high
      • wait for a 3 candle pattern - bull / bear / bear
      • optionally - check that all three candles are still above the Asian high
        If all this is correct, trigger a sell.
        I am sure I have something wrong in the logic as this is not triggering any sell trades. Previously (and I didn't keep a copy...!) I had this working and it looked promising. I don't have a backup and cannot see what I am doing wrong, except I am sure it is an issue with how I am working through the logic. Any help would be appreciated:
