I mean save a vertical line's candle id to a variable

@cristian-0 Supongo que debe ser porque el tiempo mira la hora del servidor del broker y eso no para nunca, claro. Lamento no poder ser de más ayuda.

@gunterd Check this thread: read-file-data

Because you are working with objects, it's also important that they exist and they can be loaded. Are you sure that you can get their levels correctly? Hint - visualize these values with Trace or Comment blocks.

I would place "once per trade/order" between these blocks. But why do you need that?

By the way, long time ago I made this block:
0_1545774058270_2761dd83-bd6a-4fa3-a8ce-d12d642b30f1-image.png

I never used it since then and I'm not sure if it works for pending orders, but I remember that the idea was to make the chart (on live trading) look the similar way as it looks after backtest - with arrows and lines for each trade.

Try to put it in Value -> Numeric. Datetime is some kind of numeric integer type, so it should work

Thank you for the response! i found a program called ccfileslinger that does it for me. I can use the ea to take a screenshot then the program will email the screenshot

I am not sure, I have not tried it, but you can:

I have not found block for this, and what I think, for this you should create complex custom function with at least these options:

identify current chart preiod (if it is H1, D1, ...) identify current time and based on your specified time and chart period calculate how much ID candles is between your time and current time and save it into variable "shift" in custom code block use function:
ChartNavigate(0, CHART_END, shift);
where "shift" is value calculated in previous step ...

... and be prepare, that it may not work 😄

i'm having trouble with actually creating the vertical line. i see the check distance block but i don't understand how to add that into a variable

yes, with horizontal it is similiar, horizontal is only price (without time) - so basically it is simplier 🙂

thank you so much . @jstap

@gunterd You should take time to learn the software you are using and use the search function better 0_1497990535893_Capture.JPG

Oh ok. I'll pass on that then! thank you

Thank you! let me try this and see if it works.

First you need to select the object and get the price. Some objects have 2 or even more prices, because they are made out of 2 or more points. So, it depends. But when you select the object properly, you can compare its price with some other value in Condition block, let's say with Ask price, or Candle Close. In Condition you can use the "Adjust" field for the distance.

Also, there is a block "Check distance"

This function is used to load custom indicators into the EA. fxDreema is an EA builder and as such, it is supposed to be used from people that does not understand programming very well => using MQL functions directly is not a focus, but it's possible. You can use MQL code almost in every input field, but this particular function is kinda "crazy" and I will just suggest to work with custom indicators in the way people work with them in this EA builder: https://fxdreema.com/help/working-with/custom-indicators

What are the problems?
