Bars cross over Moving Average, possible?
20 pips over ma
int start() { //---- int MALine, CurrentPrice; //CurrentPrice = Ask+20*Point; ==> not this way MALine = iMA(NULL,0,30,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0); int ticket, total; if(TakeProfit<10) { Print("TakeProfit less than 10"); return(0); // check TakeProfit } //start trade - buy total = OrdersTotal(); if(total < 1) //if no trade open { // if (CurrentPrice > MALine) wrong if(Ask>=MALine+20*Point) //4 Digit broker { ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,3,Ask-Stoplose*Point,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,"My EA",MagicNumber,0,Red); if(ticket>0) { if(OrderSelect(ticket,SELECT_BY_TICKET,MODE_TRADES)) Print("BUY order opened : ",OrderOpenPrice()); } else Print("Error opening BUY order : ",GetLastError()); return(0); } } //---- return(0); }Make a new parameter and replace the 20 for something like pipsfromline (extern int)

Your EA must adjust for 4/5 digit brokers. TP, SL AND SLIPPAGE. Danjp Don't hard code numbers - your solution will not work on metals, and can't adjust slippage.

Hallo everybody, i'm new in this and maybe you can help me with.
I saw this code and is approximately like one of my strategyes, but...i want it to open buy orders when a white candle crosses above my MA with 20 Pips and close when a black candle crosses under the MA
with 20 Pips, but simultaneously to open an sell order and close when the next white candle cross above the MA with 20 Pips, and so one.
Thank you, and i am sorry if i post wrong or i upset someone.
