Indicator did not compile correctly, do you have a link for this indicator? Second, you are using x> and x< , this needs to be changed to either > and < , i got it to trade using these changes (traded without the indicator)

@hadees said in Trailing Pending Orders problem:

@line try something like this http://icecream.me/a07d25c66ef7e305d092079ad6fe45a5

Thanks for the input, I will try this out.

Thanks for the reply. i tried that in many configurations and could not get it to work. However, I did get a simple indicator to work but for some reason, the custom indicator won't allow it. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I would agree that most strategies that you can read about on the internet are largely a waste of time. I finally figured out that most that is published either has not been thoroughly tested and is likely just "content". Content refers to websites or blogs that have to post material so it is likely noise. Fortunately, fxdreema is such a great tool to have since you can process these ideas very quickly.

Good job! The DD to Return is fantastic, so a 12% dd on a .10 lot is very safe. Duration is very good, so short term exposure is good.

If I can ask, is this a technical indicator based? Multiple time frame?


I have a custom indicator that issues a signal and the EA issues a pending order when custom indicator is true. There is no problem with the functionality of that.

The problem I am having is moving the pending order. For instance if there is a buy, the pending order is issued. Price moves down (or away) from the issue of the pending order, I would like the pending order to move with it.

Example, pending order is submitted at 50 pips, then price moves down another 25 pips (or 75 total), then the pending order should move down 25 pips.

I have tried a number of configurations which you can see on the shared link. It currently is linked to just the trade and not an attempt of modification of pending orders.

Thank you for any help!

I renamed it and still does not work.

The indicator refused to load on the charts.

Link to shared so we can look. Name or link to custom indicator?

The venta line showed up in Objects List, as did Arrows. Does the Venta line regenerate?
Arrows seemed dynamic (regenerating) but not sure if the Venta did.

Fxdreema is a very versatile program and many thanks to the creator. Keeping in mind the versatility, there is many changes I can make on this, so you will have to let me know what changes to make.

It would be great if others who have an interest would be willing to share their ideas. The link should show other blocks that are not connected, this is a working board with other ideas, but your concept is connected.

Ok, I finished it. I can send it to your email if you like. You will need to test the functionality to make sure the conditions are correct, I can fix if needed. I provided the ability to change the values.

I understand you. What are the values of the moving averages? Are the moving averages simple, exponential etc? And the value of the envelopes is probably the default of 0.10? Is this on a 4 hour chart? Should be pretty easy. I have to go to bed now but will work on it tomorrow.

I presume you mean 2 moving Averages? I would think this would be hard to find, I would think the deviation might make a difference and maybe a stochastic cross. Or possibly you run the envelope condition on a higher time frame and the ma cross (or stochastic) on a lower time frame.

I can configure these if you would like an example.

Thanks for the clarification!

Arrow82: I would be interested in helping. Let me know.

Looks identical to the ZigZag but without colors. Your version only shows 1 buffer but so does the regular ZigZag. There are posts on the ZZ on dreema if you do a search, maybe that will help.

The tutorial says this:

********#Arrows In Indicators (Interrupted Signals)

Some indicators don't print continuous lines. You have probably seen indicators with arrows placed here and there. How do they do that?
In the indicator's code there are instructions of how MetaTrader should draw the data from the buffers on the chart. Whether that data will look like a line, or like a histogram, or some kind of arrows or dots. Here are the possible drawing styles:
Drawing Styles for MetaTrader 4
Drawing Styles for MetaTrader 5
But we already know that each output buffer has as many elements (values) as many candles exist on the chart, and this is always true. So how do we show something only on certain candles? It's pretty simple, there is a special value that we can put in the buffer and when MetaTrader sees that value, it doesn't show anything on the chart for that candle. This value it called EMPTY_VALUE. This is a predefined constant and its actual value is the biggest possible integer value:
32 bit (MetaTrader 4): EMPTY_VALUE is equal to 2,147,483,647
64 bit (MetaTrader 5): EMPTY_VALUE is equal to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807
You can now imagine that if the output buffer is filled with EMPTY_VALUE all the way, you will not see anything on the chart.
Hint 1: In fxDreema, the Condition block would not pass if one of its operands equals to EMPTY_VALUE. This is because EMPTY_VALUE should be treated as something that does not exists, its name contains the word "empty" after all.
Hint 2: If you expect signals from an indicator who draws arrows and you don't have any, try to set Candle ID parameter to something bigger than 0. These indicators are normally giving you signals on an older candle, not in the current one. Try with Candle ID = 1.********

Since there is an empty value when the arrow does not display which means the value is > 1000 (actually 2,147,483,647 32bit), so when the arrow shows up, the value is < 1000. Hope that helps.
