Question
Hi Guys.
I have the slow MA set to 9 (simple, close, noshift) and the fast MA set to50 (simple, close, no shift). Minpipsbetween is set to 0. I'm also using the 200 sma (simple, open, noshift).
It opened a UJ short trade before the MA9 and MA50 crossed. In fact it opened the short when it was above the 200 sma.
I've read the thread and looked at other settings. Is this a bug or amI missing something on the settings? Thanks for any help.
Sandy
won't trade
The ea gives me a pop up box informing me of the cross...but it won't trade. WTF.
thx,
todd

Hi firedave,
I tested your universal MA cross EA and it is really great! well done my friend.
This MA crossover system will be awesome if you and add the following condition into it:
1) The RSI (Smoothed, Open, 14) is higher than the Level 50 and
2) The ADX* (Exponential, Open, 10) is higher than the Level 20
I hope you can come out with some whipsaw filtering method so we can maximize our profit gain and reduce the losses in long run.
Thanks and hope to hear from you agn!

Billl ChiamOne more thing to add:
If you could add trailing step into this system it would help too:
1. Trailing Stop: 25
2. Trailing Step: 2 pips (Adjustable)
So when profit have moved to 27 pips it will set a stoploss at 2 pips. So you can configure the setting that will work best for you. The thing is at least it will not go in loss.
Hope to hear from you soon.

More Info
Dear firedave,
I am a novice trader and never trade with MT4 before. Recently i found out most trader trade with MT4 with customize EA makes more profits and subsequently spend less time infront of the computer while trading.
To summarize, i has downloaded MT4 demo acc and would it be possible you allow me to test your strategy and to explain how to install.
Thanks

Thank you.
Hi there, Firedave!
First of all, I'd like to thank you for your beautiful EA. I think of it as a great tool for anyone who uses MA-cross trading strategies, as they are pure classic. I use such a strategy myself.
I have a little request, though. Can you add another exit trade option - to force the trade to close after a fixed number of bars on their close?
By the way, is it techinally possible to install an SMS or email alert for the advisor? I only trust manual trades, but it would be nice to get a notification to use MT Mobile to do a trade. Just interested.
Cya and keep up the Great work!
