Proxy - filter signal before processing by other EAs?

Hallo,

is it possible to create a "Proxy"-EA receiving signals (buy/sell/..) as the very first EA (before other EAs receives/procees this signal), doing some modification to the signal (or simply delete it) and forward the changed signal (if not delete) to all other EAs running on the same terminal.

Best regards,
Daniel

Yes, if you have the source code for all the EAs involved. However, what you describe, is basically an indicator to define the signals and filter them. This indicator could then be used by the EA to trade on.

Hallo Fernando, thanks for your answer. So, can I configure the terminal running a existing (no source) commercial EA in that way, that the EA will be sourced by signal of the indicator instead of real signal? How could this be done?

No, not if you don't have the source. There may be specific caveats by it would be very specific and need the situation to be studied.

But in general, the answer is NO!
