Deleted? That's evil. You must be the devil himself

But you answered my question very well actually....

If someone deletes a system it's mostlikely not performing very well.

Or did you delete the holy grail?

 

AH AH, I hope i didn't delete the holy grail, but with the rules i described at the beginning of this topic, it is easy to create one more time, doesn't it ?

Ok, below code is to Buy when bid price closes above MA(1) and Close the position when bid price closes below MA(1). Note that I use "Volume < 10" to check for a new candle.

How do you code for Price just crosses (Not Closes) EMA by an adjustable number of pips - for example I want to enter the Long if price/candle/bar goes above EMA by 5 pips and Short if price/candle/bar crosses below EMA?

 

rosstodd, first setup the logics as normal.

Check for price crosses up EMA (x) (To be put in BUY logics)

PriceBid <= EMA (x) Previous

PriceBid > EMA (x) Current

Check for price crosses down EMA (x) (To be put in SELL logics)

PriceBid >= EMA (x) Previous

PriceBid < EMA (x) Current

Second, compile to mql.

Third, make a little hack in the mql to create an adjustable pips filter. See https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/194089

That's it! hope this help.

 

Thank you for your help! I'll give it a try...

Do I just type this into the first logics space (this is not an option to select)

Check for price crosses up EMA (x)

Sorry about the simple minded questions.

Another question I have is re: the MACD you have in your demo

I want to have a buy when it crosses above the 0 line - and sell when it crosses below - Is this what is accomplished in the demo?

Thanks again for your help...

You don't need to put this line. I just want explain you what the two following logics are for what.

If you refer to MACD Histogram then:

MACD Histrogram (x) Previous <= 0
MACD Histogram (x) Current > 0

"MACD Histrogram (x) Previous 0" means if macd histogram is above 0 now. These two logics to create a crossover checking.

 

Remember a logic must contain at lease one comparison sign > < = = !=

If there is no comparision sign, it is not a logic.

 

You have a great system - I really appreciate your help.

I Tried to make a simple EA that just buys when price crosses EMA (x) and sells when crosses EMA (x)

Just to see if it would work and add the other criteria later.

I put it on a chart and tried the strategy tester but it made no trades - any suggestions?

Buy Logics:

AND PriceBid <= MA(1) Previous

AND PriceBid > MA (1) Current

Sell Logics:

AND PriceBid >= MA (2) Previous

AND PriceBid < MA (2) Current

Try run it in real time. Don't trust the backtester on this it might be because the MT3 backtester has PriceBid bug.
