I wanted to create a simple strategy with tick settings but got many problems. As a beginner, I could not understand why this problem comes.
Maybe someone can show me the right way, plz.

It just does BUYs, opens several BUY orders, stoploss does not work and 300 tick bars do not apply with 5 min candle bar.

Hi,

Please read the example of the tick bars in the user guide carefully.
- There is many mistakes in your example :
- Variables doesn't have a start values.
- High / Low variables should have specific start value due to the logic applied later (more explanation in the user guide)

Moreover:

When you say "Determining 5mn candles in ticks" this is doesn't make sense: Tick bars are bars formed by a certain number of ticks regardless of the time. If you wish to follow the testing of your strategy you have to open a tick chart (300ticksEURUSD) in Jforex.

Attached is second version

Thanks
