Hello!  I used to write in mql4 and now coming back I'm having a very hard time getting my ea to work using mql5. One example, in the past I've been able to use something like this:  for(int i=0;i<10;i++) {   variable[i] = iMA(Symbol(),0,13,8,MODE_SMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i); }  This was great! I...

I have been playing around with EA's for a while now and came to this theory. Some EA's makes profit good and fast, some EA's makes profit slower. Some EA's lose a bit of profit and then later starts making good profit. It all depends on the way your strategies are set up within the EA's But now I...

Has anybody developed any EA using Simple Moving Average ? If yes, is it effective? How to avoid trading on multiple crossovers in short time (in a flat market). Any effective solution for this? Thanks in advance

The overall aim is create a code that increases lotsize by "x" ammount every time you lose. so if anyone has input on that that would be awesome.   My idea was to use the HistoryOrderInfo include file to access history to find when a trade has been lost then increase lotsize for next trade....

Hi Does anyone have any EA that places pending orders in trend lines, based on the object name?

I'm using strategy tester to simulate a custom EA. There is a combo box on the strategy tester which there are the following options: "Every tick", "Every tick based on real ticks".   My doubt is about the use of  the "Every tick based on real ticks". I know the "Every tick based on real ticks" is...

I have been working on the theory of market management for half a year now. Of course, most will say that it is impossible, that the market is more chaotic than the universe itself and that it is impossible to manage it! But I believe that this is not true. Of course it is impossible to track 100%

Hi do any of you know if an EA for trading Binary Options with a profit exists? If so how do you need as a broker and how much will such an EA cost? The best thing would be if a real trader did the trading and via the EA placed the trades for his or her disciples :-)

Is it possible to get the performance results of each EA still?  Thanks
