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!
