The majority of trading with MT is CFD. You probably just want to use a percentage of your available balance. What you have there would do it (I never use it): set a stop loss so you have a good expected loss set, and then use a percentage of the balance. Trades will be placed if you have enough balance for your broker to allow a trade. If upon activation there is not enough balance no trade will be placed, but there will be a reason in your journal.

Not interested in telegram, I will gladly help you here but you have to show intent with showing the problems so I can help

The comment block is just for visual. Use a condition block to compare 2 things.

Make a start, get a ea buying on condition 1, then add other conditions, if it stops doing as required say what's wrong and add a shared link

On projects like this, test and get 1 aspect working separately 1st, I don't think candle pips will be as a fraction, I think you would be better using a pre-hard-fixed number (just a numeric value like 1)

Save a template with all your settings and indicators named the identical name of your EA, on backtest this will automatically load, on a live chart you will need to right click and add.

On backtest ticks aren't real, test on a live market and see what's happening

Set it up as I said, add a new shared link and I'll see where you are.

Yes but that was the whole point in your post, for a breakout price has to be < > the trendline price, so use this value to trigger a signal. Candle x< or place trade or candle closes < >, or something similar.

Need a little more information, Make it a 1-? list, so if 1 happens do x, when 2 happens do x etcetera.

Remove the once per object as it has no reference to what you are doing. You can not use - candle IDs, use ID 1 & 2, ID 3 for your reference ID, and ID 4 & 5 to complete the 5 candle set

Open your platform data window while running the indicator and take a picture of your screen so I can see what dada you have to use

I know where you downloaded it from but that doesn't help.

1. have you tested with just a couple of blocks
2. have you got relevant data in the data window?

Start by stripping out the close, get it doing the basics first. Personally, I would set up a 2 block project just to get 1 thing working, have you got values in the data window?

Add a shared link to see what you've done. Sometimes indicators don't return the relevant information. Check the data window has the information that the EA would use to generate a signal

Surely you can just log in start your meta trader platform and open the inputs?

I am unsure what you mean. On my VPS (and any Windows VPS for running MT), I log on and change an input to amend something with the trade. This then updates without stopping the server.

I don't think so
