Hi, how can I make the equivalent of an OR logical operator. I know that AND operators are effectively done when connecting 2 or more IF blocks. But I'm not sure about OR operators e.g "IF SMA>20 OR EMA>25". Do I use the Multiple Actions block? thanks.

Hi,
Yes that's right: The flow will be distributed in a parallel way with the help of "multiple action " block which is equivalent to "OR" logical operator.
Cheers

Thanks very much. So if I have a multiple action box with two outputs (the equivalent of an OR statement) leading to a buy order, is there a risk that if both OR conditions are true it could place two orders instead of one. Hopefully not.
If someone were writing the actual code for such a situation I presume there could only be one buy order placed regardless as to whether the two OR statements being true or only one being true.

Actually I was mistaken: The multiple action block is a simple distribution of the flow and it is equivalent to AND
It can be associated to an IF condition as you said (true/false) which should perform the logical operation "OR".
So to summarize, to do an "OR" an IF condition is required: IF yes -->executed A / IF No --> Execute B
You can attach your piece of blocks if you wish and I'll input comments if needed.
Thanks for insisting on this !!

That's no problem at all. If only I got a dollar for every mistake I've made......
OK - attached is the vsf for what I think is an OR statement based on IF blocks. So it means IF(RSI_30 > 80) OR (RSI_20 < RSI_30) THEN SELL. Seem right to you? And if so, what would happen if both conditions are true. They would both feed into the SELL block, so does anything stop them opening two sell trades if both conditions are true?
If coding this in Java, it would open only one sell trade because there is only one output regardless if one or both conditions are true. But in VJF there are 2 flow outputs to the sell block.
thanks.
