I'm going to pull my hear out soon. I created a project with 64 constants and 5 variables. When I try to export, I get this message "Compilation errors - '5' - name expected".
Is there a way to see which block this is referring to instead of going on a needle in a haystack search?
Please tell me there is something I'm not pressing that will just point to it. (crossing fingers here).
Thanks. I'm starting to realize that quite a lot of the MT5 indicators I'm working with utilize the same logic by puttng multiple color variatons for bars or lines on one buffer. It's unfortunate that we are unable to identify them in FXDreema to use as triggers.
Hi guys,
I have an MT5 indicator that draws histogram bars with 4 different colors (Green, Red, DodgeBlue, Gray). However, unlike in MT4 where each color has its own buffer, this one has all the color variations tugged into one buffer.
Can someone explain to me how I can identify the various colored bars in FXDreema? I'm attaching the indicator along with the shared FXDreema page. So far, it does nothing on the chart when I run the EA.
Thanks for the help in advance.

@jstap Thanks for your idea. I like it, but it's a bit different than I anticipated. I think what's confusing about the example that I showed is that it looks like it's 5 different candles and that's not the case. It could all happen within the same candle if the price moves enough in the right direction. So, it has to be more based on price movement rather than candles.
Hello,
I saw a video today where someone was describing a Dynamic Trailing Stop and thought it was an interesting concept. Honestly, I don't even know where to get started to see if this is even possible wit fxdreema.
Per the example, the premise is based on having the Trailing stop move with the price and change based on the same Risk to Reward. As the price continues to move towards the Take Profit, it would tighten the stops and targets.
Could someone tell me if this is possible and point me in the right direction? I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.
Guys,
I was working on a project and after a while noticed that some times I was able to drag the orange dot to connect the blocks and other times it would just draw the red dot on the screen without connecting it. I tried it on three different browsers (Safari, Chrome, Brave - in MAC and PC environment), and the issues persisted. I recreated the the project from scratch at that point. Everything was going great, and I happen to renumber one of the blocks with a number that already existed. Typically this would just renumber the existing block. But it didn't do it this time. It left both of them with the same number. And, AGAIN, the connecting the blocks is broken again. Same orange dots just appearing. Can someone please help me understand what the hell is going on? Thanks.
Thanks guys! Figured it out with your help. Greatly appreciate the feedback.
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to open new trades at X specified distance from last trade that opened when it is going against me. I have a calculation set that will calculate a new lot size for each consecutive trade. However, I'm having a hard time figuring out how to calculate the specific pip distance between the last trade that was opened.
I tried using the "Pips away from open-price" block but that one only calculates the difference from the parent trade and the next open trade. I'm stuck after that if I want to continue to open trades at the set distance.
Here is a link to a sample project showing what I'm struggling with: https://fxdreema.com/shared/YygxJm1kc
Thanks for all your help.
Yes, they are available in the Object tab. I tried to detect objects that contain part of the name of the object, and it was not detecting it. Unless I'm doing it wrong.
@l-andorrà I completely understand that they won't work during backtesting. I have a way around it for backtesting. But, I really need a news event to be detectable by some object on the chart that I can code around. And I'm having a hell of a time trying to make anyting work. The reason I like the FXSSI News indicator is because it does show vertical lines on the screen exactly as I need it, I just can't get FXdreema blocks to recognize any of the chart objects it draws (vertical lines).
@TipsyWisdom
I tried to implement the same custom strategy as listed in the thread. However, I'm running into the same issue as the other three people on the second page...
Were you able to successfully implement this? I created the variable that was needed from the original listed project. But, I'm still getting the same result as shown in that picture when you click on the newsfilter block.
@TipsyWisdom Thanks Man. Really appreciate the help. I'll take a look at that thread.
@TipsyWisdom I'm not tied to this specific indicator. Is there one you would recommend? I'm clearly not looking in the right places since this is the best one I could find. As far as moving to MT5, I'll have to look into that. Unfortunately, I use some indicators that are only available for MT4 and I'm not sure how I would even go about converting them if the developer hasn't.
@TipsyWisdom MT4. Unfortunately, a spread filter won't work. The prop-firm I'll be working with has a strict rule on trading minutes before and after any news events.
