oh, your aren't asking how to intentionally put a blank space in. You're asking how to eliminate something that doesnt exist.
I'd probably restart the project block by block if it bothers you that much. But also, if its producing the unexpected results, there may be other issues elsewhere.
Thats how to clean it up. you can fill it in with whatever you want.
use metatrader to build the bot to send you signals, then use a real crypto broker to manually execute upon receiving a signal. its easier that way and spread is a lot less. mt brokers for most things outside forex suck. but mt5 allows app alerts and emails.
although technically once per bar doesnt mean, start of candle...it means first tick of that candle....theoretically.
@jstap said in How does candle id work on the once per bar filter?:
@davjack Current forming candle is 0, you only have a close for a split second before it becomes 1, you are better off to set your conditions to activate on 0 open and all other conditions to look at candle 1. Conditions are checked at every tick which can be a few times a second, once per bar limits these to 1 at the start of the candle.

Whatever you are seeking are you sure that it shows up on C1?
@profitmover click on the words "how much, " and "Money Management." Read the definition to become familiar with what you are selecting
I dont do partials in meta trader for the simple reason that a partial trade is never a partial anything.
Its always has been and will be a full sale and repurchase. Its better from a money management standpoint to enter several small lot trades and then let go of 1 at a time in whatever your profit target is for each trade.
@jolly-virox already answered in your other thread.
@jolly-virox 
you could put this above the order placing block
you should look up what actually happens when you close partial trades in MT5.
If you are holding 1.0 lots and close a half lot. You are not simply closing half the position to .05. Maybe that is producing the error because it is unexpected
