@istudying2357 Use the one that I started, I believe that is similar to what you are looking for. Just simply save mine and then edit it to fit your rules.

Without rewatching the video, if I recall he says that for entry, the previous candle must pierce the 8ema. Then once the current candle does, you can enter trade. But when he does his next trade after that, the previous candle doesn't pierce the 8ema....so perhaps continuing trades can skip looking at that first candle piercing below 8ema?

Again, without looking back, I believe I looked into that and once you allow that rule it makes you take many losses in the future.

@l-andorrà

I thought if you put a number in candle ID for a cross, that means the X happened 4 candles ago, per the example. But then if you make the cross width a matching number, it will search for that cross within the last 4 spaces basically.

im working on a version of it, but his rules for reentry are unclear.

while its tracing, and watching the strategy tester, does it show the arrows in real time or only populates them after?

sometimes lately the server is delayed.....its getting a bit overloaded at times. When it does, sometimes its very laggy when saving, or even openinig up condition blocks. Perhaps @FXDreema should be alerted....its been going on a lot lately and ever increasing in frequency.

you had me up until, same color. What needs to match? You mean close to trade close to possible as break even?

every time i use them they have never worked or im not using them correctly

Im trying to find a way to convert it to run it myself and help, unable to find out how to.

@yassineh said in Need Help with Fibo Indicator:

@jsauter86 thanks for your help
I think you shared the wrong project
I understand what you mean
First i tried "Fibonacci : Price by level" but the lvl (ex lvl 6) didn't match with my custom lvl (I start counting the levels from left to right begining by 0,1,2...) : the lvl 6 wasn't my seventh value...
If you can try my project is very simple :
FIbchannel, custom % (lvl), candle cross one lvl -> BUY / TP next lvl / SL close bellow the lvl // same thing for sell position

@YassineH @biztet Whos project is this? lol

@kizerage212 said in Check for two bull candles in a row after opening sell trade:

@jsauter86 I don't understand what Condition (Candle ID 2 < Candle ID 1) would do. It needs to check for two bull candles in a row right after a sell. So sell is opened on at start of a bar. Then not the next candle bar but the open of the one after that it checks last two candles to see if, bullish and then closes trade if they are. And if it is NOT bullish then the trade stays open until reversal from indicator so it can only pass through here once after first two green candles.

can you share your current project?

@deelyo1132 said in E.A. wont trade and i cant find where the error 0..02 is?:

meta editor saying there's a error somewhere 0..02 but Ive checked every block and cant find it? so i fix the error every time i compile it in meta editor.... To make matters worse i had this e.a. trading great with SL/TP but the amount i wasn't getting bothered me. i have never programmed a exit strategy b4 but i have read a lot and tried on "in-trade" and "on-init" with no luck then found i needed variables to do that so i read this way works and now it doesn't trade at all, even when i take conditions away which the ones i have are really easy to pass... my goal is to take loosing trades get rid of them fast and double to triple up on reversal to not loose profit... and let winners run long. please help
p.s. i refresh web broswer and rename e.a. every time i compile and test

Hve you tried trace blocks? Its not MT4, I cant do it.

@kaylow said in Different trailing stop values for multiple trades:

will give that a try, appreciated. Can you enlighten me on the overlapping conditions
When I am building the initial EA I will do the most simply thought version of buys only. Then I figure out how to condense it to smarter blocks, if needed. I usually keep my buy and sell EA's separate if they rely on opposing conditions.

I cant load it because of the custom indicators. be sure all of your indicators are named properly. It may help to restart your project from the beginning and I suggest like this:

Create a shared copy of your project, this will be the basis for where you copy and paste everything from.

Create a new project and put in all of your base necessities without all the conditions. Save the project. Try to test it. If it loads fine and takes 0 trades, GREAT NEWS! On to the next condition. Just add the first condition block, resave and retest. Repeat the process until it doesn't work.

If it didnt run it at all after starting from the beginning....good luck have fun.

Remove the connection of the current TS to one of the no-trades. Add a 2nd trailing stop to the other no-trade. Then specify which will be buy, which will be sell.

I'd suggest to separate your entire project like that. All buy separate from all sells because you have several overlapping conditions. But thats my preference to make things simple and easier to diagnose.

@sese ah sorry....im not help. MT4 only.

When I put a trace, it said the values of the buffers are Zero.

Whatever you did with the BuyZone and SellZone variables, there are FibLevels built into the coding of that indicator. Perhaps you could do the same for Fiblevels? Perhaps you could simply use the adjust option under each condition? For instance, if you want to open when its lower than the 50% line, you could close it if you were to use the red buffer * .5....given that the red buffer is 100%. But I couldn't see a defined value with trace.

Heres what I am trying to do with it:
https://fxdreema.com/shared/NGIKBN64b

I have put the indicator to use on the entry and exit to see if I can get ANYTHING to work.

Im following to see how it goes.

Add a trace for the custom indicator, run a Strategy tester then watch it go. Pay attention to the values and see if that makes sense.

Circling 2 candles, and 2 results isn't a clear indicator of what you are seeking.

Can you ask clearer?

I have an idea, let me play with it. I'll post result soon.

Enter Trade when MA 5 X 20.
Exit trade when candle X ? Answer that please.

interesting, can you share the indi so I can play with it?
