Need Help to create a EA - MA cross and Momentum

[fxjorge_]

Hello all

I hope someone can help me to programm this EA:
I would like to programm a EA with following informations.

open buy order if > MA cross (fastMA over slowMA) and Momentum >100.03

close buy order if > ( MA cross (fastMa under slowMA) and Momentum <99.97 ) or SL is open Price ( <10 Pips)

open sell order if > MA cross (fastMA under slowMA) and Momentum > 99.97

close sell order if > ( MA cross (fastMa over  slowMA) and Momentum <100.03 ) or SL is open Price ( >10 Pips)

Open orders (buy/sell) until Margin Level is 500%

Thanks for your support

You must correct the main mistake: the MQL5 style implies the creation of an indicator handle ONCE and this must be done in OnInit. Correct your mistake!

1. Perhaps you should read the manual, especially the examples.
      How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. (2004)
         How To Interpret Answers.
            RTFM and STFW: How To Tell You've Seriously Screwed Up.

   They all (including iCustom) return a handle (an int). You get that in OnInit. In OnTick/OnCalculate (after the indicator has updated its buffers), you use the handle, shift and count to get the data.

2.             double ask = SymbolInfoDouble(_Symbol,SYMBOL_ASK);
               double sl = ask - 100 * SymbolInfoDouble(_Symbol,SYMBOL_POINT);
               double tp = ask + 100 * SymbolInfoDouble(_Symbol,SYMBOL_POINT);
   

   You buy at the Ask and sell at the Bid. Pending Buy Stop orders become market orders when hit and open at the Ask.

   1. Your buy order's TP/SL (or Sell Stop's/Sell Limit's entry) are triggered when the Bid / OrderClosePrice reaches it. Using Ask±n, makes your SL shorter and your TP longer, by the spread. Don't you want the specified amount used in either direction?

   2. Your sell order's TP/SL (or Buy Stop's/Buy Limit's entry) will be triggered when the Ask / OrderClosePrice reaches it. To trigger close to a specific Bid price, add the average spread.
                MODE_SPREAD (Paul) - MQL4 programming forum - Page 3 #25

   3. The charts show Bid prices only. Turn on the Ask line to see how big the spread is (Tools → Options (control+O) → charts → Show ask line.)
      Most brokers with variable spreads widen considerably at end of day (5 PM ET) ± 30 minutes. My GBPJPY shows average spread = 26 points, but average maximum spread = 134 (your broker will be similar).
