Hello
I read this forum from A to Z but I can't create my strategy right now.
I want to know, Is there anyone to help me to build my strategy?

My strategy is simple:

Bollinger band : SMA20 dev 2

Buy: if grean candle close > BB uper band ----> buy stop +2pip

sl: setup bar low -2pip
exit: if red bar close <bb upper band
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Sell: if red candle close< BB lower band-----> sell stop -2pip

sl: setup bar high +2pip

exit : if green bar close>bb lower band

-------------------------------------------------------

First of all I cant create this type of sl and tp

second I cant create pending order that trigger at high+2pip/Low-2pip

and third exit the trade


please help me

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi,

Could you please attach the progress that you made so far ? (vfs file)
I recommend you to:
- first insert your indicators with the needed settings and "Get historical candle" block with shift 1


--> IF block : candle close (from get historical candle) > BB band upper band THEN insert pending open
to calculate the price, take the tick price + 0.0002 = Entry price, then inset this entry price into your pending price.



In the pending open block, there is a setting section in the bottom, open it and set the parameter in PRICE;
use a calculation block to determine the SL price : low (from get historical candle) - 0.0002 = SL PRice then drag it into the pending block
For the exit you need :
1- Check the candle type if Red or Green: compare open and close prices in a IF block
2- IF Open>Close AND IF Close < BB upper band THEN insert Close and cancel position

Cheers

Hi
Thanks a lot for your help, I tried your advice but I have some errors:

1)I cant use "Ge historical data" for close. There is no option in it that I can choose close.
Or when I first input Get Historical data then put IF Block with close candle and upperband, J forex give me an error like Null,or....

2)J forex can't close order

I attach my work
please see why I can't create this.

Thanks a lot for your great help

Hi,

I'll get back to you asap...

Thanks for your patience.

Hi and thanks for your patience again

Here is a quick example retracing your idea but I only made the long flow. I'll let finish that...
I also added some comments ...

Cheers

One more detail:
You have to set the shift value to 1 instead of 0 in "Get historical candle" block.
with this the system can retrieve fully the OHLC data of the previous candle; if you use 0 i.e current candle, the close price/high and low cannot be determined and fixed permanently while the candle is still under construction. Hope you get the main idea.

Cheers
