my suggestion would be not to run the EA if you dont want it to take trades since the robots can only trade 1 pair at a time

Please create a shared copy. and post the link so we can see what you're talking about in whole.

@profaalaa said in MA crossovers:

@jsauter86 which candle parameter should I choose if I want whole of the candle to above the MA (both the body and also the wick). The default parameter is Candle close, it doesn't account for the wick.

Maybe "Candle total size(pips)"

put it on an EA and test, let me know! haha

use the .mql file, not .ex4

what does the journal say on MT4 terminal?

Does this help?

@mancuso

that is the purpose of using indicators and technical analysis...to find the trend to enter trades. If you find a easy 1 size fits all, please let me know! haha

Seriously though, there are indicators out there that do it. Learning how to read candle stick patters you can do it...give a read on Price Action analysis.

Oh and there is a few different blocks for use in the builder under "Various Signals." FXDreema created them but from what i can tell he does nut suggest their use...but he keeps them because some people have figured out how to use them to their advantage so he keeps them

@anslembrath said in i would like to create a bot for the 9Ema to cross the vwap.:

@jsauter86 @l-andorrà i just got the .mq4 version how do i import the indicator into fxdreema? for my project. thanks and any help is greatly appreciated .

In the builder;
Click "My Indicators"->"Add Custom indicator"->"ChooseFile.mql"->"Upload"

Then it will be selectable

I am only posting this link as a reference to his links. He has put in a lot of time and effort into indicators. There are his top 100 and I believe he updates the list. I dont condone him or his teachings, or his teachers teachings. Just some information thats good for sharing.

@prasa1000 said in Simultaneous Pending order when open a trade:

@jsauter86 Hi
Thankx for your comment
Actually I don't want to close any order. I want to keep both orders
But when it moves to risk zone I need to activate the second order in order to balance. ( Hedging Kind of )

Ah ok, so logically I think it would be something like...loop for each trade, pips away from stoploss, at the same time as that action happens, that would be the time to execute the pending trade?

I am not advanced enough to even think of how to do that, sorry. I'll leave it to the pros. Good luck, I'll be watching to see how their though process is.

To clarify;
when you open a active trade you want to create a 2nd that is pending. When that current active trade closes, you want the pending trade to execute?

As a step to try to help, can you try to make a very simple ea using default indicators and see if that works? Sometimes I have undesirable results with unconventional indicators.

@jsauter86

sorry, let me see if I can clarify anything.

Regardless of which trade is open I want the trade that is opened to be closed when pips have reached variable AA. Variable AA = 3DaySMA*.026

....I just realized an hour later that what I am asking for is kind of like when people ask for a close trade of 1.5ATR...but with a slightly different condition.

If we can suggest resources...this guy has complied a lot here and some really good ones;

@l-andorrà said in DPO / Zero-Cross Exit Indicator Problems:

You can specify 'crossing up' from below 0 to above zero as a condition to avoid whereas the opposite is a condition to be met.

I think it would still close it when it cross back up. looks like he wants to stay in the trade after that.

I would try to think of a looping trade condition to watch for?

I think I understand better...I often run into conflicting crosses when I have buy and sell conditions in the same EA. I have recently begun splitting my EAs into 2 versions of each version. 1 Short EA, and 1 Long EA.

@l-andorrà said in Very tricky! Help please:

@jsauter86 So you mean all trades should be closed when ANY of these circunstances happen:

a) Equity is in 2.6% profit or 2.6% loss.
b) Current price is 2.6% above or below the current value of the 3 day SMA.

Is that correct?

yes sir, if I can see how to do that I can adjust for what I need it to precisely do

believe him^

@jsauter86

updated the project Sir, check the comment. thats what I am trying to achieve but instead of a comment, I want to close a trade when the pip move is the value of that comment.

https://fxdreema.com/shared/GMHIFnjre

I want to close a trade when the profit is 2.6%, or rather if the pips move in any direction 2.6%, of the current 3 day SMA, then close the trade.
