@slimmz The numbers rarely affect the block flow, it wont on yours and only matters if a block needs to activate first.

@slimmz I would place just above buy as a final check before opening.

@talalkhan When your indicator ie in right place group 1 trade will open, once the indicater is below trade 1 will be running, at this point you can allow trade 2 so once the indicator is in the right place the 2nd trade will open.

@slimmz You can do it like this, just put block in buy tree.

@talalkhan Somthing like this, when condition is right set variable to true, when condition is wrong set to false. Use the true/false condition block to allow/disallow trade.

@slimmz Not really but you can do things like count candles from cross, and only entre when there is enough of a count, or maybe check the distance of MA's then entre when big enough. The choice is yours but unsure if either will do, depends on the specific stratagy.

@slimmz Welcome to the standard MA cross problem, this is the main problem to this type of bot.

@talalkhan For a start you need an if trade 1 above no trade 2, this will make sure 2 only happens if 1 is active. You need to use variables/flags so once trade 1 is active and indicator is below a set number it will allow group 2 to trade.

@janemic-0 Is this tested on back test? There is no slippage on MT4 back test, FX will do MT4/MT5 you just have to create separately. Are you sure this is slippage and not the spread?

@andrewfrank

@slimmz Your welcome

@talalkhan Interesting

@talalkhan This is likely because some buffers have a value that occasionally changes, normally when an indicator appears, this causes the value change. This will show you how to count occurrences when this happens, you will have to test all buffers with both ways until you see which one is what you need.

@talalkhan Do like I have here, different indicator but you'll see what to do, draw a line to verify to levels.

@talalkhan Put the value into a comment so yyou can visually check.

@talalkhan This indicator has a lot of buffers, place them into a comment block so you can visually check which one if any contain the number you want, if it is the one you have arrowed then your set up should work.

@dadilula I am not sure you can, well not the Enumerations any way although they probably don't matter, as for the buffers, looks like there is only 1 you can try to add but I doubt it has the relevent information. The data type and name of input parameters are the same as you see when you load indicator on chart , the buffer name doesn't matter, you can name this as you like.

@slimmz Try doing this, the logic here is if opposite trade close then open new. I have used this setup many times and does as expected, try this, you can also set up completely separate trees to close, if you still struggle post here.

@darekl Then you need a standard trail to just follow behind price, or use pink blocks to move stops when required, the principle is the same you just need to decide what causes the stop to move and where it moves the stop to.

@slimmz I use the no trade block and then a group 2 etc trade to enter more if needed, a once per bat block will limit to only 1 trade per candle..
