MA Cross lovers... gather here!
Hi
Hi....
Sorry i have no programming background at all, but i want to make an EA based on LWMA. The logic is very2 simple, buy if the "CANDLES FULLY FORMED" above LWMA and vice versa for short...
Thanks before
I love moving averages, thanks for creating this thread. I am working on a system with MA cross, well a variation of ma. They are called t3 and t3-1. The results look very auspicious. More testing is required. Can you help me with one thing? A audio alert when they cross. I would appreciate that if you can.

Youn need to post the code to do that!

Post the code or PM me if you want it confidential.
I'll add an alert for you.
ps: mq4 file is the code. if you don't have the code, we can't help you.
Guys i don't have the code, didn't know we needed that to make the alert, i am such a MT4 noob 
I downloaded the indicators like this here on tsd...
EA for trading system @ www.babypips.com
Hi Shinigami,
I am manually forward testing the trading system at babypips
So far, I found it from BreakEven to profitable. It has standard features of a standard EA. It doesn't look very complicated.
Can you write an EA for it? I will test it on MT4 platform and post result here.
Thanks in advance.
Nearly had enough
Before I take the final step in this forex saga, & throw the whole bunch of
c--p in the bin...is there anyone out there who can point me at a SIMPLEmoving average entry EA.
All I need is an entry at open of next bar following a cross (My choice of MA's type & style, TP & SL) - nothing else (Though it would be nice if I could also choose a time for it to place the trade).
Thanks all

I know that Moving Average cross systems are quite popular, so I made a generic one that can take whatever standard MA you want. An explanation of the features is in the source code, but I'll also post them here:
extern string averages="==== MA Settings ====================";
extern int FastPeriod=5; // Period for calculating MA
extern int FastShift=0; // Shift the MA over X number of bars
