tks !!!!

OK

Not needed an example , I got it.

Can you send me some .mq4 file? The last time when I tried this, it worked, but I'm testing it with 3-4 blocks... who knows what is wrong with this project...

Thank you

I was using the wrong block.

No, this block doesn't exists in the PC version

Multiple trades or 1 buy and 1 sell?
I recently added a block to work with basket of trades. The block selects certain group of trades and then in "Condition" few values are available, for example the total profit of the group. Multiple groups can be selected at the same time as well, so they can be compared. But better don't use == to compare such things, use >= or <=

Maybe the open price has 0 at the end and it's not displayed

I would like to describe the process I do to asign an open value from a trade to a variable.

create it http://prntscr.com/8g5649

When trade is done, Variable is "filled" with the a new value from the open trade http://prntscr.com/8g56qy

To check it i use http://prntscr.com/8g5792

But the result in the that I see when backtest is done is this http://prntscr.com/8g59n7 http://prntscr.com/8g59vi

Where is the error ??? I´m completely stopped, any help or example will be wellcome.

Thank you.

Imagine what was the confusion before when the name "Global Variables" was used. And they are in fact named exactly "Global Variables", just hit F3 in MetaTrader and you will see the title of the windows that will appear. Then I decided to rename them to "Terminal Variables", but people are still confused 🙂

F.E.
When I have "frozen" my buys, it is a way to follow the correct trend.

if you are trying hedging strategies, my opinion about these is that they are overcomplicated Martingale strategies. The same result, but much, much harder to make and maintain. The easiest thing to do in your case is to just close those buy trades and think fresh what to do next.

If you want to calculate the total lot size of those trades, it's a little bit complicated and it looks something like this: http://prntscr.com/85eof1

For the future I was planning a block that will load a group of trades and then in "Condition" and all the other blocks various parameters will be available, like Average Lots, Total Lots, Min Lots, SL, TP... stuff like that.

It works with "+intervalo"

Thanks !!!

It depends on how the EA is working. If you manage trades with Variables, then such thing will matter. But I don't recommend to do that.

MetaTrader manages these things by itself. If we have the block "Check trades count", it asks MetaTrader how much trades there are running right now (with some magic number, currency, type and so on). If you have 3 trades and you close one, the EA will just start to see 2 trades. And it will start to see the one that is closed as... closed history trade. Nothing unexpected, I hope. Almost the same situation as if you restarted the EA.

Ummm... is there a problem or you just want to improve this?

I can suggest to reuse blocks. What I means is to use less blocks as possible, use one block for multiple actions. Like, you can probably have 1 "Buy now" and run it every time with different input parameters. This requires some Variables, but this is how things happen normally in the programming world. I can also admit that it's not always possible to reuse blocks, after all this is not a programming language and it's not so much flexible, but do that when possible.

Thank you very much, I´ll do as you suggest too.

To run the EA I forget to attach a custom indicator needed , now it is attached.

I hope you can reproduce now the same theoretical back test results as me, starting on 1/1/2015 from eurostock index.

If these "min" and "max" levels are candle high and low, then I can suggest few "Condition" blocks, because they are used to compare two levels. They also have this "Adjust" field where you can add something to operands (red the description of this block for more info)

It is exactly what I was looking for.
