i have build my own indicator, but i do not know how to build a EA to trade,

my indicator is separate windows (i call it "Price GPS")
the setting : 1) draw line
2) calculation = (Close i)-(close i+11)
3) after that when i apply this indicator i added a level= 0
i would like to run a EA when: 1) when the "price line" is cross over the level 0 from "-" to "+" will setup a buy stop pending order
the buy stop = (High i+10)
the Stop loss = (Low i+10)
the ts = (Low i+11)
the pending order only last for 1 candle. (if i use H4 chart, then only valid for 4hrs)

2) when the "price line" is cross over the level 0 from "+" to "-" will setup a sell stop pending order
the sell stop = (Low i+10)
the Stop loss = (High i+10)
the ts = (High i+11)
the pending order only last for 1 candle. (if i use H4 chart, then only valid for 4hrs)
please reply me ASAP
thank you,

Import your indicator into the strategy builder. See viewtopic.php?f=3&t=162
If you do not know how to identify your signals post the indicator here (.moi file)
There are plenty of examples here http://www.molanis.com/products/molanis ... rs-for-mt4 that explain how to do a cross or compare with numbers. In short use user defined number in the TA icon.

You need to use a cross. Something like indicator in previous bar <0 and indicator in current bar > 0 (use shift 0 for current and shift 1 for previous. But first make sure you are using the right mode to get the right signal. Read the link I posted before. If you need further help you need to post your indicator. (If you think about it, you are saying what is the signal of my indicator? but I am not showing it to you so you have to guess - and you better be right )
