SMA direction

[fxayreo]

Hi, I want to create EA based on SMA direction, and stochastic.
I believe I have found the stochastic part, but I've unsuccessfully tried to find out the SMA(50) direction (I have no idea how to know its direction).
I would be grateful as someone help!

Don0t worry. Could you please share the part you already have and then we will work on it?

Thank you very much I appreciate that a lot.

I'm trying to make an EA for a fairly simple strategy, based on the direction of SMA (50) and sticastic ... the conditions for entering a buy order are:

1.- SMA (50) pointing up (This is what I don't have the slightest idea of how to do it)
2.- Stocastic below 50
3.- Market order on close of the candle after the stochastic indicator turns in the direction of the trend (turns up). (I did this with two conditions comparing the 3 previous bars: if the stocastic values are Bar1> bar2 and Bar2< Bar3, I assume that stochastic changed direction by closing up; but if it exists a better way to do it, I would like to change it too)

If all 3 conditions are met, it is buy order with:
Take profit: 2 ATR (14)
Stop loss: 1 ATR (14)

I share the little I have ...

and 100% sure, the condition 1 is missing

Thank you!!!

@fxayreo Why don't you do the same to SMA as you did with the stochastic. SMA 50 (more options) -> candle ID 1 is above SMA 50 candle ID 2. That means SMA 50 goes up.
