Thanks!! I don't know how I missed that. I've only been using FXDreema for 2 weeks now and I'm hooked, I'm finally able to create some amazing algo concepts without having to find someone to do all of the coding that I can't and don't have the time to learn.

How would I go about recording the current trade count into a variable? I want to trigger a trailing stop at a certain number of trades and make it dynamic, so I need the trade count inside of a variable to do that. I don't see an obvious way in the Check Trades Count, Modify Variable, or other blocks that I've looked at. Thanks in advance for any help!!

I think that perhaps I can use the "Buy Grid" and "Sell Grid" blocks, but they aren't an exact fit for what I was trying to do. I was hoping to place the order once per bar at the close, so that a long wick wouldn't have me in many trades all of a sudden.

@fxDreema I can get block 3 to pass, I know this because buy trades will close under the correct conditions. The problem area I have been focused on is Block 16, which is the one which would add an additional trade if price was moving in the direction of the trend. It does not seem to pass even if price is above the past price. I have been wondering if it is something to do with the variable, but everything I try hasn't worked.

The custom indicator is an oscillator, similar to MACD but faster response. Output 1 is the indicator line and Output 0 is the signal line.

@fxDreema Thank you very much, I will look into this much deeper. I agree, I think it is in the condition block but I can't seem to understand why it doesn't pass. It is almost certainly user error!

I have tried for hours to get this correct without success, and it should not be difficult to do. I have a routine to add to either a buy or sell position if the close of the next bar is X pips further in profit than it was at the last trade. The project works on the sell side, but the exact same structure does not work on the buy side. https://fxdreema.com/shared/FEErW3o4e
