Universal MA Cross EA - page 82

 

opening trade is delayed

wonder why, with parameters set to 0 to get immediate opened position after cross, that order is only opened a few bars later on M1. Maybe it should be better to set ma values inside an array. Or is it a global variable issue ?

note: no warning/error logged.

 

An Update Request

Hi Dev, the EA seems nice. I have a suggestion to update the EA.

To place an order it to be considered 2 time frame. One is 4H and another is 15M.

For Long Entry : If EMA crossed up in 4H TF and EMA crosses up in 15m TF then place long trade. Close the long trade whenever EMA in 15m TF crosses down. Long trade to be placed again and again when EMA crosses up in 15m TF.

For Short Entry : If EMA cross shows down in 4h TF and in 15m TF EMA crossed down, then sell trade to be placed. If EMA in 15m TF crosses up then close the short entry. Short trade to be placed again and again when EMA crosses down in 15m TF.

Hope this strategy help to avoid false move.

Please let me know your openion.

Regards and Thanks in advance.

Wishing happy and successful trade to all.

off quotes

hello, this EA is probably the best that i had found, but on real account, I have an off quotes error in mt4 journal.

what's happend? lot are equal to 5% of my equity, broker is FXCM ,thks for help

 

"Of quote" error is an error when you try to open an order at one price and in the mean time your broker changes the price. If it happens a lot of time, consider another broker (that is a usual way to avoid filling in the order at some brokers) or see what is going on with your connection (in case that you have a slow connection that can happen too)

Hi Hisperway,

The "off quotes" message you received could all be the result of having your maximum deviation set too low on your live account. We can only fill your orders at the price that's currently available in the market. If the price at which your order was placed is no longer available, and the current market price is outside the range you specified for your maximum deviation, you will get the "off quotes" message as you described.

Since FXCM uses 5-digit pricing (fractional pips), every 10 points for the Maximum Deviation is equivalent to one pip. If you adjust your Max Dev to 30, that would equate to price range of 3 pips. You can do this by going to Tools > Options and the Trade tab as shown below.

Hi Mladen,

On FXCM's No Dealing Desk forex execution model, we immediately offset client orders with our liquidity providers and add a pip markup for our profit. That means we make our money from the trading volume, not client losses. Since we make our money from trading volume and don't take a market position against our clients on our NDD model, there is no incentive for us to not fill orders. An "off quotes" message on our platform means the market price has already moved. This can be addressed by adjusting the Maximum Deviation as shown in my previous post.

Hi, I hope some one could help me with this EA, I would like to change the exit with "when the 1stMA cross the 3rd MA"

So the entry always use 1stMA cross 2ndMA (buy or sell) but exit or closed when 1stMA cross 3rdMA.

Is that possible? I hope the senior member or the code guru/master could help me with this.

Thank you very much
