Running an EA Over Renko Chart ?

hello everyone ! 😀

ok , yesterday i created a simple EA (if 2 candles close above X MA then bla bla bla)

anyway , the EA is not working on Renko Charts

anyone has ideas ?

NOTE : when i create an indicator , it works and show the signals , but for EAs , it never works

good morning , anyone please ?

please guys that’s important for me  🙁

Since renko chart are not natively supported by MetaTrader there can be problems running EAs on this type of chart. Do you mean backtest on renko or live/sim trading? What solution do you use to get renko chart working?

after attaching , go to “open offline” , Active your chart , thats it

any solutions so far  🙁

come on guys , im so excited to try my EA on a live account  🙁  🙁

Basically it should work the same. Since it does not, I would Google it because it is a problem with all EA’s. I remember reading one guy found the problem to be because he was using ticks to trigger things but with Renko there are not ticks (or something like thst), so it would not trigger his rules. So with that, maybe change “isbaropen” to true or if it is already true, remove it. Play around with this and see if it works. But I can only suggest to Google and search forums. I think I found help on forex factory back when I was messing with Renko.

Use OnTimer in place of OnTick.
