''crossed - function not defined'' ...please help!

Hi there,

I have programmed a simple ema as a start to get into MQL4 programming but have run into a snag.

I get an error message saying corssed - function not defined on the following section of code:



sEma = iMA(NULL,0,21,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
lEma = iMA(NULL,0,55,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
//----------

int isCrossed = Crossed (sEma,lEma);



so I added the following code :

static int isCrossed = 0;


(like this into the EA...)

sEma = iMA(NULL,0,21,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
lEma = iMA(NULL,0,55,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
//----------

static int isCrossed = 0;
int isCrossed = Crossed (sEma,lEma);

total = OrdersTotal();
if (total < 1)
{
if (isCrossed == 1)
{



then when I compile the EA it says ..."crossed - variable Already defined"



please help me understand what Im doing wrong and How to fix it.


Iv attached a copy of the entire code if anyone needs to see it to understand what im doing.

thanx

1) You have declared the variable name isCrossed in two places, if you need a static copy of the value, call it sisCrossed

2) Cant see a function Crossed anywhere - does it exist? The attached code is not visible to me :(


Keep trying :)

Then try some more ;)
