//MACD Filter
double macd_main = iMACD(a_symbol_0,0,12,26,9,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_MAIN,1);
double macd_sig = iMACD(a_symbol_0,0,12,26,9,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_SIGNAL,1);
if ((a_cmd_8==OP_BUY)&&(macd_main<0))
{
return(0);
}
if ((a_cmd_8==OP_SELL)&&(macd_main>0))
{
return(0);
}

can you fix this code so that if the criteria for a buy trade is met
but the current candle is bearish on the 1m chart the ea should not
trade and also if the criteria for a sell trade is met but the current
candle on the 1m chart is bullish the ea should not trade.
 

Please use this to post code . . . it makes it easier to read.

You can't know if the current M1 candle is bullish or bearish until it is finished . . then it becomes candle number 1

could say if price is lower than the previous candle's high then dont trade.

what do you think and vice versa, can we talk on skype or something it takes a while to get replies on here, skype name: ace112

Sorry too busy for that . . . unless you want to pop over and make my Christmas cake for me ?

Just use M1 bar 1 . . . check the Open vs the Close values to determine if it Bull or Bear . .
