thanks you to you both

Hello

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong here?

I want it to open a trade or show an arrow when the price crosses down RSI 70%

I have tested on 2 x different MT4 installs and its not drawing arrows at the correct places. I am using 1m TF

is this not possible then?

something like this:

@miro1360 said in swing high or low:

I dont know block which can do this automatically ... but something similiar is doing Fractal indicator, so maybe you can try it but I dont know if that helps you ... look for indicator which is doing this things, like zigzag trendline indicator:
0_1490204937893_ZigZag_Channels.mq4
from this page: https://www.xpworx.com/download-free/mt4-indicators/zigzag-channel-indicator.php

this indicator creates objects trendlines "dntrend" and "uptrend" so maybe you can use them in EA for breakouts etc ... just try it
you dont need import this indicator into My Indicators, attach it into chart first and than attach EA into the same chart

Did you manage to make this indicator into an EA? I have tried but always losses

I have been searching but I cant find the answer

I want the BUY or SELL to calculate X% of my account.

For example risk is set to 5%

the pips between BUY and SL is 100 pips and the trade will open with a auto calcualted lot

so if the trade was to hit the SL - I would only lose 5% of my account

hope this makes sense

I tried Risk % of Balance (Volume size depending on Stop-Loss) and it doesnt seem to be correct

TIA

Hey

looks like your right...

I should stop testing on my live MT4. I didnt want 2 MT4 instances on my machine but looks like I will need to

thanks again!

Hello

I think there is a bug?

I am using is 50 MA x> 20ma and there is always a few bars delay

http://imgur.com/CNvUmhU - You can see the 50 MA and 20 MA has crossed but entry has not been made

http://imgur.com/8eIwGX7 - trade is opened 3 candles after?

current project

Hey, but this would be dangerous if someone changed the TF to 1hr candle .

Is there another method?

here is an example. the values OnceDay, CrossUnderFib should be 0 now as candle has opened

I have an EA which resets variables once a day at 00:01

The EA uses the Daily candle so in theory, all the variables should reset to 0, 1 minute after new candle open, however this does not happen.

Am I doing something wrong?

candle (0) is the current candle. Candle (1) is the last closed candle

try:
candle high (1) above candle high (0)

the condition will pass if the current candles high goes above the previous candle

hope this helps

@Mik78 Add "close trades" block inbetween block 6 and 1

Delete block 7 and 8

try this:

Set a new Variable (as 0) - for this example I will use 'RunOnce'
Add a condition to run your EA only if RunOnce == 0
After your BUY or SELL - set RunOnce to 1
Add an extra condition to set RunOnce to 0 once the Opposite Cross Over happens again

@DavidSL Do you have less than 10 connections?

great tip! fixed! thanks

That seems too of worked Miro, I will need to add other parameters to the EA. Thanks!

Can you tell me why this EA is not working? It should open when the 1hr candle closes above the EMA , but the low of the candle is BELOW the EMA

Once that is confirmed, open a trade once the 5min candle closes above the EMA and candle low is below EMA.

It should of opened a trade this morning USDJPY this morning but it didn't

Pulling my hair out here!

@Stelgar You are not giving us enough info but try reading this:
https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/4174/tutorial-01-ema-cross-part-1-beginners

and this:

https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/4200/tutorial-04-ema-cross-part-4-more-buttons-beginners

I am not sure if this is a bug or not, but the EA will work with just the first block (Condition; 200 EMA cross 50 EMA - SELL)

However if I add a second condition (IF 50 SMA crosses 20 EMA), it will not open a trade.

Am I doing something wrong? spent a few hours on this!
