Hi, I am using MT5 EA Wizard for a simple MA Crossing EA. Your MT5 EA Wizard works fine and is fun to use and learn from. Right now it makes 100's of trades while the basic MA cross condition is True. How do I make it trade only ONCE per crossing...until the MA's cross again? Thanks for your help, Robert |

To define a cross you need to analyze 2 bars. You need 2 TAs connected by an AND. The trading conditions are defined to get the cross, something like previous bar condition 1 < previous bar condition 2 AND current bar condition 1 > current bar condition 2 You can use the current and previous bar, or the previous and the one before the previous (use shift to define which bar). There are a number of combination you can use. |

So far...this is an easy solution...and so far it works great! And my continued thanks for your MT5 EA Visual Wizard... I keep learning new things! Robert |
