@ambrogio ok. Thank you!

@ambrogio
ok. then in my case when I put 30 pips in the spread filter block, does it mean 300 points?

@l-andorrà do you know how to use it with single digit, instead of using 100 unit?

@l-andorrà ok Thanks
but then in constant input I should always use 200 and not 2, if I want to 1:2 Risk Ratio from SL?

@jstap hmm..weird.
that's what I also thought.

Thanks anyway.

Hi @jstap ,

I was using the spread filter, but somehow it didnt work or maybe I use it wrong.

in my case, I put the spread value must be lower/equal than 30 in order to take a trade (see pict 1), however the EA just took the trade even when the spread value higher than my set, which is about 180, (I confirm this, because it is the time period of day changing, where the high volatility was) .

So, I was wondering, was it because the digit of spread value. When I put it 30 in my setting (see pic 1), does it actually mean 300 pips as in the Metatrader, because the MT add one digit extra (see pic 2)?
if not, any idea why spread filter wasnot working?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I would like to create an EA where the percentage is based on the StopLoss (SL) from n candle bar and the takeprofit (TP) is the multiple from SL. I did it like below, questions:

• is it correct that I have to define TP (double) first in the constant inputs, so it will multiply with the 100% of SL. I did it like in pict 1, so the constant input needs only to be single digit that will be multiplied with 100
• or if it should be like picture 2. but then the constant input should always be 100 units?

Thanks in advance

@jstap Ok Thanks!
another question. Is it correct to put the hours as a string in hours filter?

@jstap so like this:

@jstap
before "no position" or after "once per bar"?

Hi guys,

I set EA with the day and hours functions as below.

However, it seems didnt work. For instance today, I set to Monday to start EA from 16:00 (see "Mon-open" under hours filter), however the EA just took a trade on Monday at 12:30.

What I did wrong?

Thanks in advance

Hello guys,

My broker has candlestick that includes Sunday.
Some of function in my EA considers previous candle (with 1 as in candleshift). However , it gets annoyed when it comes to Monday, because it considers Sunday candlestick.
The question is how do I build a function that skip Sunday candlestick but rather consider candlestick Friday (considers if it is Monday).

Thank you!

@jstap ok thanks once again!

@jstap so it'd be like the second picture ?

@jstap ok. thanks man!
gotcha, it does make more sense use the ready to use block.

Ok Thanks! @jstap

but are those above I've been using sofar wrong?

Hi guys,

I have a question on how to use spread block condition.
which one below would be the best (see the right operand)?

is the pips as value necessary?

or by defining the value numeric, it is already obvious?

Thanks in advance!

@tipsywisdom @l-andorrà
yes, correct. I want to be alerted first and then I want the EA runs..
Basically, I have been doing this manually. I put the price alert. Whenever, I got the alert on, I turn on the EA.
Now I want to do it automatically.

Do you guys think, it's possible?

@tipsywisdom Thanks!
Do you think, would it be possible to run EA after this alert message function.
something like this:

@l-andorrà
Oh cool. Thanks! I'll try this.
