I think it is because there has been a delay when moving average crosses.
I have tried these 2 take profit conditions
1. When price reach certain pips, close the trade
2. When price reach certain pips, wait for moving average to cross in lower time frame then close trade
The 1st scenario gives me better results. Why does the 2nd scenario not perform better?
