try adding a volatility filter - had same issue until I added ATR confirmation before entry. ma crossover alone gives too many false signals in ranging markets

how do i chain multiple conditions with AND/OR logic? i need price above sma(20) AND rsi below 30 as entry

Use the Logic node - it's in the Conditions category. Feed both conditions into an AND node, output goes to entry condition. pretty simple
You can combine multiple indicators and conditions together in the strategy builder. Indicators can also be used as a source for other indicators to create chains of calculations.

trailing stop is under the action category. drag one in and wire price data to it. double click to set the distance in ticks or percent

make a condition that checks current time. wire it into your entry logic - if outside hours it blocks the signal
You can add a time-based condition to your entry logic using the conditions available in the strategy builder. The platform gives you the tools to build custom rules — you decide how to structure them.
