How it works

Its simple (pun intended). When the short moving average is above the long moving average the trend is considered up or bullish. The expert advisor closes its sell order (if one is open) and opens a buy order. When the short moving average is below the long moving average the trend is considered down or bearish. The expert advisor closes its buy order (if one is open) and opens a sell order. So, the expert advisor stays in the market riding the trend up and down.

Quick overview of variables

Stop_Loss and Take_Profit

Stop_Loss and Take_Profit variables are optional, meaning the values can be left at zero and the EA will still trade correctly. If you would like more control over the expert advisor you can change one or more of the values. For example to have the EA open positions with a take profit of 20 pips  you would simply change Take_Profit value to 20.
