@q8carpenter Ah wait no...seems to be working now. Thanks man!

@jsauter86 I recommend to swapt block numbers 43 for 53. Now both 'For each trade' are executed AFTER block 15 but BEFORE block 53. That can lead to weird results.

@jsauter86 Thanks. That's actually where I got the DPO indicator!

PLS HOW CAN I PUT STOP LOSS AT A PERCENTAGE OF A CANDLE LOWER THAN THE CANDLE. FOR EXAMPLE 50% OF CANDLE ID 1 BODY SIZE LOWER THAN CANDLE ID 1 FROM THE CANDLE OPENING ?

@ambrogio Sorry Ambrogio to trouble you again... Could you please help and explain how this constants and variables is suppose to work.. This formula still is not following the average of all trades with the TP. I am to slow to understand it .. Please brother

Got the answer.
For those who are interested, I am on XM and this broker doesn't permit to modify/import the data as XM MT5 is a "standard platform".

@jagmjavier
Try test on June (this month). Maybe the PC current time was taken as time reference

@sirboyce said in No trade when candle body pips from 20EMA > ATR14:

@l-andorrà Hmmm...I tried the buy condition but I don't think this is really what I am looking to do. I can't see anything in that block that is checking Candle ID1 total pip movement after close and then determining that the total pips is below the equivalent ATR pips

You will need a variable to stor that information and then compare it with your up and down limits. Not everything can be done with a single block, unfortunately. 😉

@pan4pips

Alright pan, I digested your information. I like it. If I'm able to find a way to calculate pullbacks and use that number for continuation trades, then I'll PM you.

Two parts to this...Create a logic tree that detects a pullback and another on that detects a greater than previous pullbacks...I have an idea. Currently I'm using objects to show low and high. I can get the distance between this and compare with current data.

Overall, I'm pleased with your information and thank you for it.

@trader-philipps that's what im planning to do as well. Incorporate ATR as a trailing option aside from psar option and pip option. How can i set ATR in fxdreema? May you elaborate? thX!

@sirboyce Are you sure that if you compile in Meta Editor there are no errors reported? May you send a project link that we can have a look?

Hi. I'm just dropping here without knowing all the details of the project, but in general I have found out that backtests with some 50 trades contain zero information on actual profitability. You should test longer periods to get more reliable results. My rule of thumb is at least 200 trades per test.

In my opinion, mt5 has a far better environment for developing and backtesting, but unfortunately that is too big a transition for most people..
