excel has a feature that will allow you to separate similar data in single columns into a column of its own. I know it doesnt help with the initial problem but maybe?

@ladydolares Id recommend you to youtube. My mentor is a controversial name but surely if you search around the internet you will find the person who didn't invent what an "order block" is, but made it widely known to the trading community back in the 90's. Or feel to message me and I can give you a good resource or 2

I'd recommend the term "order blocks."

1. NEVER EVER use once per day unless its acting as a function of...drawing lines, running custom code.
2. Limit it by using the block "once per bar," and then inside that block, change the time to how many bars (candles) you would want it to work. I.e. If I have a strat I expect that could potentially trade once per hour with profit, I'll change it to H1.
3. Placement of that block, right above your buy now and sell now blocks...nowhere else.

@alvingbateh excellent manners my man, but in order to get the best help you should start your own topic within Questions & Answers instead of thread jacking someone else.

@charlie-4 good thinking, sometimes its best to start from scratch with the minimal things required first to make it trade, and then begin adding in all the fancy stuff one at a time making sure it makes sense with a visualization in between each addition.

@darekl

something about this seems like the wicked smaht way to do it. Just turn off the buy and sell blocks. Because it leaves the EA running instead of terminating, you could also program in something to turn them back on later.

@ijoh he isn't the guy. lol

Welcome to the world of Forex where something like 89% of those who trade in it lose.
Its not a zero sum game (google that if you need to know what zero-sum is and why people think forex is that way)

simply googling "Forex Grid Trading Strategy system" should give you everything you need to know. Click bait..."100% success"..."No-Loss System." Its for the naïve in my opinion. If the systems never lose, why aren't the richest people in the world everyone that has ever developed a successful gridding system. It should be that easy right? set your lots to 1, turn on the bot and let the money flow in.

Everything I say, is my opinion. Everything you see on the internet is an opinion. People who post big profits, probably fake or done on demo because they done have the huevos to do that in real time. Most people who offer advice, probably don't even trade real money.

Aside from all that though, sorry I am unable to help any further with that looping.

Keep plugging away though, I've been at it HARD for a year and I'm better than I start at.

Best advice I can give you. Just start trading on demo accounts right now. Using your eyes, put them on a chart and just sit there. Watch how market moves on each time frame. Never play with more money than you would in real life. When you can mentally overcome a big win or a loss, meaning you have no reaction....now Forex is beatable because its all a mental game.

Surely the guy who built is still around here, if he chooses to I'll let him name himself. Maybe he cant help you with it. But I'm not at liberty to give it away.

this is what the curve of a gridder looks like. Someone built this once and gave it to me....but its just not a good system.

@ijoh simplicity sake, a gridding system?

@rafadeggau tenha cuidado, uma vez que você começa a usar indicadores, eles são como um vício. Você assiste a um vídeo sobre como usá-lo, eles fazem com que pareça tão bom ... e com certeza, às vezes eles podem ajudar a ganhar grandes negociações, mas o mantêm fora de tantos vencedores.

preço ação é rei.

infelizmente, às vezes é muito mais fácil usar apenas um indicador no lugar de alguma ação.

@saeed-2 ah sweet, it did work. good to know

I kinda feel like the best to do it may be a tree like this, but put a time filter, or a way to stop all ticks, equal to the current time frame selected. A wait timer per say.

@seb-0 i wouldnt assume, the logic to me reads that it will close a trade as soon as its open....but perhaps it may actually wait. I'll test it after this optimization! Thanks for another aspect to try

@rafadeggau

Acabei de notar que seu EA parece tirar vantagem de grandes movimentos em uma direção.

Eu estaria disposto a apostar que, com a realização de lucros ligeiramente diferentes, você poderia ter tanto sucesso voltando na direção oposta. Porque os mercados normalmente fazem o que é chamado, voltam a significar ou voltam ao meio.

can you screenshot, which was the solution?

@fisch1414 no problem.

I'd try to visually help, but since it relies on vars and constants, and I refuse to go back to mt4 I can't see how its all done as a whole project

@saeed-2 NP! I personally avoid trying to put lines into formula since its visual based. As far as using the fib though, instead of grabbing the lines, because there may be issues with lines sometimes, use the data those lines are linking to instead to help find the 50 level. You could also even get rid of the lines that way and just reference the 0 and 100 level of the fib....unless its the visual aspect you're looking for that must always be.

good luck, let me know how it goes!

@tipsywisdom said in how to draw middle horizontal between two horizontal line:

without knowing what you pulled the data from, because I'd opt for that info instead. But the slightly cumbersome way you could do it would be to draw a fib, anchored to the 2 lines that you identified. Then use the 50 level of the fib as the median

this may be the better way to do it.
