I hired Navdeep to help me work on a personal project where my ability with MQL5 was lacking. He completed the job within a few hours and helped me with numerous questions after the handover

Specification

Hello,

I have developed a strategy but I'm struggling to write the MQL5 code and it's easier for me to get some help rather than continue struggling.

I will explain the part of the strategy I need help with in basic code but I need help writing this in MQL5 as 1. I can't figure out how to calculate the moving average of a source that isnt OHLC, and 2. I cant think how to store that as an array. I have commented the sections below:


lookback_period = 50

//------ Get RSI Values for all 28 Pairs

double audcad = rsi("AUDCAD",lookback_period)
double audchf = rsi("AUDCHF",lookback_period)
double audjpy = rsi("AUDJPY",lookback_period)
double audnzd = rsi("AUDNZD",lookback_period)
double audusd = rsi("AUDUSD",lookback_period)
double cadchf = rsi("CADCHF",lookback_period)
double cadjpy = rsi("CADJPY",lookback_period)
double chfjpy = rsi("CHFJPY",lookback_period)
double euraud = rsi("EURAUD",lookback_period)
double eurcad = rsi("EURCAD",lookback_period)
double eurchf = rsi("EURCHF",lookback_period)
double eurgbp = rsi("EURGBP",lookback_period)
double eurjpy = rsi("EURJPY",lookback_period)
double eurnzd = rsi("EURNZD",lookback_period)
double eurusd = rsi("EURUSD",lookback_period)
double gbpaud = rsi("GBPAUD",lookback_period)
double gbpcad = rsi("GBPCAD",lookback_period)
double gbpchf = rsi("GBPCHF",lookback_period)
double gbpjpy = rsi("GBPJPY",lookback_period)
double gbpnzd = rsi("GBPNZD",lookback_period)
double gbpusd = rsi("GBPUSD",lookback_period)
double nzdcad = rsi("NZDCAD",lookback_period)
double nzdchf = rsi("NZDCHF",lookback_period)
double nzdjpy = rsi("NZDJPY",lookback_period)
double nzdusd = rsi("NZDUSD",lookback_period)
double usdcad = rsi("USDCAD",lookback_period)
double usdchf = rsi("USDCHF",lookback_period)
double usdjpy = rsi("USDJPY",lookback_period)

//----- Find Individual Currency Strength

double aud = (audcad+audchf+(100-euraud)+(100-gbpaud)+audjpy+audnzd+audusd)/7;
double cad = ((100-audcad)+cadchf+(100-eurcad)+(100-gbpcad)+cadjpy+(100-nzdcad)+(100-usdcad))/7;
double chf = ((100-audchf)+(100-cadchf)+(100-eurchf)+(100-gbpchf)+chfjpy+(100-nzdchf)+(100-usdchf))/7;
double eur = (euraud,eurcad+eurchf+eurgbp+eurjpy+eurnzd+eurusd)/7;
double gbp = (gbpaud,gbpcad+gbpchf+(100-eurgbp)+gbpjpy+gbpnzd+gbpusd)/7;
double jpy = ((100-audjpy)+(100-cadjpy)+(100-chfjpy),(100-eurjpy)+(100-gbpjpy)+(100-nzdjpy)+(100-usdjpy))/7;
double nzd = ((100-audnzd)+nzdcad+nzdchf+(100-eurnzd)+(100-gbpnzd)+nzdjpy+nzdusd)/7;
double usd = ((100-audusd)+usdcad+usdchf+(100-eurusd)+(100-gbpusd)+usdjpy+(100-nzdusd))/7;



//---- Now I need a function to take one of the individual currency strengths and calculate 2 moving averages, subtracting the smaller moving average from the larger one. The problem is 1. finding the moving average of a source that isnt OHLC, and 2. storing that as an array to be able to identify crossovers etc:

int signal(double data_currency)
{
        int signal_output = 0;

        delta[] = ema(data_currency,50) - ema(data_currency,200) // This needs to be an array so that I can calculate when delta crosses above or below 0. This is the entry criteria
        
        if(delta[0] > 0 && delta[1] < 0) //delta crosses above 0
                signal_output = 1;

        if(delta[0] < 0 && delta[1]) > 0 //delta below above 0
                signal_output = -1;

        return(signal_output);
}
    


This should be a simple fix for someone who knows the solution!

Hello, I need a custom Expert Advisor (EA) for MetaTrader 5 that implements a specific trend-following and reversal strategy using trailing pending orders. Here is the exact logic I need: 1. Initial Entry: The EA should open a Market BUY position (or I can open it manually, please include an option for both). 2. Trailing Sell Stop: As soon as the BUY position is open, the EA must place a SELL STOP pending order at a

I’m looking for an experienced developer to build a fully automated XAUUSD scalping EA for MT5. Requirements: * Fast entries targeting small, profitable moves after trading costs. * Configurable fixed-target and trailing-stop modes. A $1 gold price move can trigger profit protection instead of closing the trade. * Once the profit trigger is reached, move the stop to cover costs and lock in a small net profit, then
I want to create an EA that will take trades according to a trading zone condition. The logic will start with the identification of a trading zone for BUY and SELL in the EA. After the trading zone has been identified, then the EA will use the current time frame prices to determine if the market will be a BUY or SELL. The market will be a BUY if the low price range goes above the lowest price after the installation
I have an existing compiled MT5 Expert Advisor (.ex5) for XAUUSD scalping. I need a developer to build a bridge that connects my existing EA to a broker’s FIX API, allowing its trading signals to execute orders directly through FIX instead of the standard MT5 trade server. I do not need a new trading strategy or a new EA. Please confirm whether this is technically possible without the EA source code, and explain your

Hello, I want to create a custom Expert Advisor (EA) for MetaTrader 5 based on 3 main confirmations: Market Structure & Price Action: Identify high time-frame trend direction (HL/LH).
