EA not working

 

Hi, any one who can help me with the code below(calling indicator).When I compile it is ok with no errors but when I drag it to the chart nothing is happening.

I am still new with coding I need help to learn to write codes

Thanks

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert initialization function |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
extern int Period_MA = 21; // Calculated MA period
bool Market_above = true; // Fact of report that price
bool Market_below = true; // .. is above or below MA
//------------------------------------------------------------------
int start() // Special function start()
{
double MA; // MA value on 0 bar
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
//Tech. ind. function call


MA=iMA(NULL,0,Period_MA,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);

//-------------------------------------------------------------------
if (Bid > MA && Market_above == true) //Checking if price above
{
Market_above = true; //Report about price above MA
Market_below = false; //Don't report about price below MA
Alert("Price is above MA(",Period_MA,").");//Alert
}
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
if (Bid < MA && Market_below == true) //Checking if price below
{
Market_below = true; //Report about price below MA
Market_above = false; //Don't report about price above MA
Alert("Price is below MA(",Period_MA,").");//Alert
}

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
return;
}

Please edit your post . . . .


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

 

Do you have a smiley face in the top right hand corner of your chart ?

Did you click the Expert Advisors button so it shows a green arrow ?
