@realjoker My scepticism is time-tested, and follows being a profitable EA trader. Martingale can be used as a way of making more money from a trade, but not as a way of waiting for drawdown to come back into profit. As a general rule, why wait for profit when the right strategy will have closed profit so you can trade again. Anyone reading this needs to know that Martingale can only trade small lot sizes, relative to your account size, and even a 0.01 lot size can be big drawdown over a long time. You only have to look at EAs on the MQL5 website, to see that Martingale EAs are cheap and easy to find because they will eventually blow accounts. Is also interesting that you use previous dates to test, markets are constantly changing, so you could have at least used 2023 so it displays more current results. Good luck

Connect them in a separate tree with a if trade block at the top, one will do all trades unless you use groups. If not working add a new shared link to look at.

15 years of programming experience, yet you use FXDreema... really? Your picture above looks like it's showing a martingale equity drawdown, and any experienced trader would know this is bad. Good luck with this, but I for 1 do not think this is worth people's time.

RE: Is this right?posted in Questions & Answers
Possibly, only 1 trade at a time, add a shared link so what is happening inside blocks can be seen, this will not look at two indicators at the same time, to check two types put them in the same row.

Add a share link, on timer and on chart only work on live/demo charts, not backtest.

RE: Cascade Grid Systemposted in Questions & Answers
When a new trade is opened, probably best to use the on trade tab, position created then the blocks to do what is wanted.

RE: ABSposted in Questions & Answers
You can use this in text (code input), MathAbs(variable name), there are other ways, test and if not working add a shared link to look at.

RE: CLOSE TIMEposted in Questions & Answers
The for each position block is redundant and used incorrectly, this is to select a trade before working with its values. The trail blocks are used incorrectly, they should be in a separate tree

RE: NEW CRATEposted in Questions & Answers
Add a shared link to look at, BE will move stop once when the price moves enough points from open. Trail will follow the price from the starting pips set distance by SL distance, and as often as you have the step set.

Say what option you chose to use, create a test project and add the shared link. What is happening can then be assessed.

RE: Is the Lot Size by % of Equity / balance working>?posted in Questions & Answers
Add a shared project, I think this only works if SL is active

RE: NEW CRATEposted in Questions & Answers
In the trailing stop and breakeven blocks, you have the pip option for when to start the action.

RE: color the sl tp regionposted in Questions & Answers
Not sure what you mean by %? You can draw a rectangle from open to SL and one from open to TP, using different colours.

2 choices, record the price in a variable or use the last trade price with pink blocks.
