Need help... anyone

Hi.

I`m new to this forum and I don`t know anything about programming. I have demotraded with the help of this indicator for several months now and I wonder if there is possible to make a EA out of this.

The criteria is as follows:

1. When the green "Gator lips" indicator crosses the red "Gator Teeth" indicator it`s an alert signal. When the green indicator crosses the blue "Gator Jaws" indicator and reaches a 2 pip lower value than the blue it is a sell order at current price.

2. When the green indicator crosses the red indicator and reaches a 2 pip higher value than the red indicator it is a close order at current price.

Same principal when the trend is upwards, but with opposite values.

When the green crosses the red on the way up it`s an alert, and a buy order when the green reaches a value that is 2 pip above the blue indicator. When the green indicator crosses the red indicator and reaches a 2 pip lower value it`s a close order.

As you can see at the chart it would have done a buy order and a close order at mark nr 3 and it would be a none profitable order, but it wouldn`t lost to many pips either.

Hope anyone can help

Best regards

I am not sure but similar EA was described by Igor Morozov in his book about forex
