Hi

The TA function could only used to validate one indicator against another, such as in the moving average example.

For most indicators, I would like to initiate a trade when the CCI cross its level, such as the zero line or whatever level we declare, say 100.

How would we code it?

On the TA block compare your indicator to User Defined Number - UserNumber (positive and negative numbers) or User Defined Price - UserPrice (positive number). Just enter the number - zero in your case

Hi

I am looking for a crossover from below to above for buy signal.
The given solution merely tests for the current bar to be above zero.
Suppose I activate the EA and the current bar is already few days old, it initiates a buy and that not correct.

Rgd

You need to use the option shift. Please look at viewtopic.php?f=6&t=13&p=49&hilit=shift#p49
Add two TA, one that looks into current bar the other one that looks into previous bar. Connect them with an AND
so: CCI Previous (Shift 1)<0 AND CCI Current (shift 0)>0
Remember that using just this condition you get too many signals i.e. when it goes from -1 to 1 and then -1. To make it better I will add another trading rule or confirmation with a different indicator.

Really complex EAs.
Some questions come to mind:
-sl and tp hidden? you mean not sending them with the order
- ranging - trending? how do you define when is ranging or trading? with MAs?
- trend strength, how do you measure it? which scale?

sl and tp will be open for brokers .,the real take profit and sl are hidden like (hide tp and sl).
ok leave about ranging and trending b'coz of the problems involved in analyzing.,Let macd alone move and work in any sort of market.
I meant that for macd will not trend above zero line and may cross several times ranging that will create a problem.,
example ; above zero line ea takes a buy order but if we fix a take profit below brokers limit 10 pip we cannot sustain and that trade will result in a stop loss., instead I use a hidden take profit and sl., regarding this I used reversal of price-a buy in case of above -when reversal is fast and happening we can control it with breakeven at entry price where we took the buy order , when the price reverses we get a breakeven stop here.

trend strength is determined with stochastics raising above 33 but needless to maintain., U CAN LEAVE THIS FACTOR TOO.,

just inputs shall have in the field as hidden take profit and hidden stop loss ,apart from real ones.reversal in case of a order reverses in the same bar where macd takes orders for buy or sell and break even at this order entry price instead of using stop loss., so that the EA will be with NO stop loss and what I mean is the perfect EA.A REAL TRADING ROBOT.

dual posting by mistake hence removed.

I have created a simple macd with my great trading knowledge sooo happy about it.
THANK YOU MOLANIS FOR THIS , I HAVE TRIED EA BUILDER EARLIER., BUT THIS IS DIFFICULT ONE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND MOLANIS CLEARLY.especially for a trader and a programming newbie.

But regarding other feautures I am still confused about., Of all the EA opens up several trades if I close positions., again If I close positions if I retain the position then there would be no positions or new orders taken.

Ok there's always a loophole regarding.

anyone here can be some help if can spare some minutes.

Have you read the manual? The software comes with a user guide in a pdf file.

The software does not allow hedging. This means that before going long (buying a currency pair) the software will close all short positions. In the same way, before going short (selling a currency pair) the software will close all long positions.
Look at similar posts:
