Enter before daily candle close....?
-
Hi all,
I have a ea that runs once per bar and it works fine, but I use it on the daily chart.
I'd like to enter my trades maybe 15minutes before the daily candle closes to avoid wide spreads. Do i use a once a day block instead and set the time accordingly ?
Will this still work fine with my other condition blocks that look back at other candles?thanks in advance

@marcussmale You can use a 'time filter' block below your 'once per bar' block and then specify there when you want to open your daily trade. I don't know if that can conflict other blocks. Can you please share the link to your project?

@l-andorrà yes having trouble with this,i just want to take trades at a particular time each day, its a daily strat
-
this doesnt seem to work im afraid

@marcussmale Can you please share the link to the project instead?

nothing i try seems to work, any ideas?
-
@marcussmale I would try the once per bar underneath, so once time filter passes the once per bar allows the others to pass once.
-
i think it might have something to do with how my cande id are set up, candle close 1 etc, i have tried your setup
-
@marcussmale Try setting one block at a time, then adding the next, this way you will know where the problem is.

it does work as i need it too fine on once per bar, thanks for looking. maybe because it waits for candle close and then checks that close. but i want it to check before the candle closes ? if daily candle closes at10pm gmt i want it to look at 945pm gmt. but it will only look once the candle has closed. this is my problem

@jstap ok

@marcussmale Candle 0 is the current candle, so on daily will be looking at the day before, I would use candle high/low on 0.
