With a terminal variable, you need to update the variable manually, as long as you have put the result into the variable it will remain.

No, is only the amount of block connections

Add the indicator into FX then you can select it in most blocks

There are different ways, but this - ChartSetSymbolPeriod(0, NULL, PERIOD_H4); - added to custom code when you want the timeframe changed should do it. So when you have worked out the drawdown.

The blocks work but it depends on what you need, these blocks will move to a new high/low when found. That's why I said try, if it fits your needs then good, but if not I have no other way.

Set this up and if not working add a shared link and say what the problem is.

FXSI indicator will show you all this and is also free to get. This will give you an idea of how you can use it, this is mt4 but mt5 is also free: https://fxdreema.com/shared/eC6KELGPb

Trailing will move for any trade, group will move for all but also move back, I only use for each trade

This setup will give you 1 trade in total, for 3 trades have 3 separate trees using different group numbers, group 0 no trade - group 0 buy now, group 1 no trade - group 1 buy now, ETC

You need to pick them in a loop not by name

They are enums add this to the enumerations at the top of indicator:

enum Mode
{
Historical,
Current
};

enum Style
{
Colored,
Monochrome
};

Add Mode & Style as the type and this should make it work

@Vortrexcian

It is deleting but it is instantly re-drawing, as you can see in here: https://fxdreema.com/shared/Z2O0s4zQ if you only allow it to draw once it deletes

I think this will do what you want:

I have to say I don't get the point in a trailing TP unless it is a group of trades so the TP is calculating the value of all trades and setting a combined TP. For me, SL works because it trails behind until price reverses

Use SL, not TP, the whole point in SL is it trails behind to secure profit, by bringing TP towards the open you are changing the R to R and changing the entire point of the original trade, although moving SL does it is not a close when reached measure, it is a blanket to save losses if price changes direction, otherwise profit will increase until the maximum is reached

pass once to draw, then reset before you draw the next day

@Labutters

Is a slow way but only test on times when you know the hours, in the EA set rules to work on the the times you know
