I use this: https://fxdreema.com/shared/7XOt8jGxc Doesn't detect and react to news, but if you set in at the start of the week it prevents trade around news.

The time you have is seconds since 1970, use this to convert:
TimeToString( Your value,TIME_MINUTES);

This is quite hard to back test but this should do it: https://fxdreema.com/shared/I9PjwP3xd

Go onto your meta trader terminal and load the indicator, then open the object list, if the object is there, you can read and double click and read all parameters to work with it. I always use name to find and work with an object. If the object is not there I know of no way to use it.

You too are idiots! Look at the amount of posts I have placed and responded to, I have helped more people on these forums than anyone else. I said exactly how to achieve what you asked! Add a shared link, not pictures so people (who are trying to help) can see inside blocks and advise where you are going wrong! And in most cases, you do not need and blocks, because things connected in a row, only work if above is true.

O dear thank you for calling me a child, but is probably an indicator of your age, no one is superior, but people have to have a small understanding to grasp what is offered as help, then that is what it is. Help is offered free on these forums, but how that is used is up to the individual.

@Alfie I replied to your post, but what I offered is from years of learning and experience, so I know it works correctly if not Meta would not advertise or create the code.

FxDreema is an amazing tool, but it just helps you organise and implement Meta code.

That makes sense, I will often use ID1 just so current candle doesn't affect values.

The 0 on the end is the candle ID (is called offset, a lot of code has it) set it to whatever candle you want the range to start from. The 0 at the start is the timeframe, 0=current, on MT4 you can use a int number, MT5 you need to use code like PERIOD_CURRENT

Exactly I only used " " to show the section to replace with your time, ultimately that code is expecting seconds after 1970

This is set to specific, so will only close trades on the chart it is attached to

If you know what section and blocks are causing the problem, ask people for help on that problem. Even set it up on a small test project, then people can see the problem and try to help.

Global variables (terminal variables) are values saved in a file in the terminal folder, push fn f3 to see a window of variables used in your platform. In output you have a yellow block that will save this from the name you chose, you can then get this value using most blocks, use in the same way as normal variables, but the backtest will change like in live, so you may need to use an if testing block to limit when it can be changed

Yes if you can get the indicator values to work with, all values would need to use the same chart values, in other words, you cannot compare the main chart value vs the indicator chart value, you can though use something happening on one chart, and something happening on another.

There are yellow blocks called bull candle and bear candle, use these to achieve this.

You can't, this is just slippage but a different broker might be less

The enum value has to be at the top of the constants list.

Create it here, if AC crosses 0 send an alert, standard blocks will achieve this

Thank chat GPT: OnTimer Event This event is triggered at regular intervals based on the timer set by the EventSetTimer function. It allows you to perform tasks at specified time intervals, regardless of market activity. If the timer interval matches with the time of an incoming tick, the OnTimer event will still execute based on its own interval.

OnTick Event: This event is triggered every time a new tick (price change) occurs in the market for the selected symbol. It's directly tied to market activity. If there's a match between the time of a new tick and the time set for the OnTimer event, the OnTick event will take precedence because it's triggered by the arrival of market data.
