I'd imagine there are quite a few EAs out there that already do this - MA cross has traditionally been very popular. As the previous poster suggested, there are many excellent programmers through Freelance who would happily code something for you. Good luck.
50 and 200 MA crossing usually triggers a market reversal point. If you gonna make an EA keep that in your mind (a suggestion).

Hi,
I would like a bot which opens a trade when the price crosses a moving average (20, 50 or 200).
I chose lot size and trade amount and select the rules (20, 50 or 200 moving average)
A trade is opened in the direction of the movement i.e. if the price crosses the 20 MA in a bullish way then a buy is opened
I can then set up a trailing stop loss
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ricky
