I am writing a simple EA based on Moving Averages but my code returns zero values. It does not make sense to me.

Can somebody help please? Here is the code that returns no values / or zeroes for the variables defined (MAlong, MAmedium and MAshort):

 MAlong = iMA(NULL,0,ShiftLong,PeriodLong,MethodLong,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
 MAmedium = iMA(NULL,0,ShiftMedium,PeriodMedium,MethodMedium,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
 MAshort = iMA(NULL,0,ShiftShort,PeriodShort,MethodShort,PRICE_CLOSE,0);

hmm ??

Do you know there is an iMA-EA-example: Moving Average.mq4  in you expert folder?

What about changing this acc. to your ideas?

I know this EA, but I am taking a complete different approach. Just tell me if there is something wrong with the code. Why am I not getting any values?

How should we know? You have nine variables where you don't show their type or value! There are no mind readers here. Why didn't you trap GetLastError()? 
MAlong = iMA(NULL,0,ShiftLong,PeriodLong,MethodLong,PRICE_CLOSE,0);

I would guess should be 

MAlong = iMA(NULL,0,PeriodLong,ShiftLong,MethodLong,PRICE_CLOSE,0);

GumRai,

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! You were the only one who took some time to check my code and find the error.

I am so very grateful for you taking the time.
