@drankman that works. Your open price is a level, so SL must also be checked as a price level, not a pips value or price difference.

@slydexx try the pink "once per position" block as a filter.

@fifeivkbdedwcf ATR does not measure trend direction, it measures the average candle size. Candle size is a good proxy for volatility.

If you want to develop a range breakout strategy, you need more than ATR, maybe ATR and ADX combo.

Something like this. Note that EA can never prevent manual trades.

Forex can be traded 24/7, but there are undoubtedly quieter periods during the 24-hour day. Just put ATR to a chart and see how predictably the average volatility makes it cycles. Like a sine wave.

The problem with tight range breakouts, those "sqeezed springs", is that usually the "tightness" is only because quiet trading on a holiday, or early Asian session, basically when most traders are sleeping. It is usually not anticipation of big jump. So you need some kind of indicator that takes the expected volatility into account as well.

@B9dz well the LotStep variable has a value of 0, for some reason

@Robo84 like this, roughly

@Robo84 yes, you can do that in fxdreema. You just need to formulate the text section separately - use a custom mql code block and put the whole text into one string variable with a bunch of "\n" for new lines.

Time filter applies to the blocks you connect under it.

Impressive work, that takes a lot of dedication.

But I can't help myself saying, with some custom code knowledge you can do this in 5-10 blocks max

@BotondKing you need an enumeration, this may help:

And how about this?

I'm just guessing, difficult to replicate your case

@AlirezaTrade the math would add up with this new formula, not sure it applies to all cases: https://fxdreema.com/shared/MeB6yIyMd

@AlirezaTrade add one more bracket here:

It is about this constant. Did you copy the block from some other project, but didn't copy the constant?

@AlirezaTrade that's interesting.

I added some prints to the EA, check out what values it prints to Experts:

@AlirezaTrade you can try using a point value as SL, and then calculating the lot size "manually" in a custom block:

The example uses 123 point SL with a 1% risk.

The brokers differ in "Tick value" and leverage setting. So it would be normal that you get different lot sizes for the same "risk". If you let a trade go into SL, do you lose $60 on both accounts?
