Draw Arrow Block doesn't draw arrow in ea

[VanceDavid]

my Example : https://fxdreema.com/shared/MCizupXkc

Nothing I have ever attempted to draw ever draws in EA back test. Nothing Draws. In the most basic of test no arrow draws ex4 (ea5 doesn't draw either. Whats up? If the EA won't perform a simple draw then how can I trust any calculation or comparison.

Please clarify why nothing draws.

@vancedavid if your tester runs open prices only, the candles have no body, and body size is always 0 pips.

@roar

Thank you for responding roar.

I am confused because I believe this condition block tells me
Candle id 0
Parameter : Candle body size (pips)

So this should give me the candle body size (what ever that size is, 8 pips, 10 pips, 13 pips whatever)

Then my comparison > Value 10 is evaluated.

You tell me : if your tester runs open prices only, the candles have no body, and body size is always 0 pips. : (what in the world is open prices?)

I'm confused because doesn't this condition block return the candle body size in pips on the first part of the comparison. If not what in the world does this candle body size generate?

Finally how do I obtain the body size of a candle?

@vancedavid Your logic is correct. What roar is telling is that you should try 'every tick' mode for your backtesting instead of open price mode. Then it will work.
