@nillav Thank you but where are Turn On and Turn off blocks?

@jstap

This is the general concept as you can see the this SELL example, the 10 MA crossed above the 20 and the crosses back a few candles later.

I would like the bot to enter the trade when it crossed back over/down, generally though I don’t care how many candles if anything I would prefer to put a limit meaning if price hasn’t crossed back over within 7 candles then don’t attempt the trade.

So which part in PART 20 that you sent covers which steps

@jstap I'll make an attempt but currently i find the concept of conditions and variables a bit confusing, either way ill roughly do a version and send it over to you for some guidance, again i appreciate the help

@TipsyWisdom wow thanks i didnt know you could download historical data for free, how do i import that data into MT4, is there somewhere that has a tutorial on it

@jstap so are you saying to just copy and paste the whole of area 20 or just blocks 73-78? I appreciate the help

@jstap Thanks, it’s not so much on a particular number of candles before it crosses back, I’m more focused on the double cross of the MAs because sometimes it could double cross with 3, sometimes 5 and both are still excellent trading opportunities.

Is my initial project for the double croos?

@l-andorrà https://fxdreema.com/shared/1SnLGtKze let me know if this is correct

@l-andorrà Sometimes it might cross back over from the 2nd candle, sometimes the 4th it varies how would I input that? Also I want it to disregard the trade of it takes more than 6 candles to cross, how would I write a variable for that?

@l-andorrà no I meant just simply back testing the bot

Ok so for this bot I will use 2 MAs 10 & 20, every time the 10 crosses underneath the 20 BUT then crosses back up a few candles later I want to enter a trade.

How would I go about creating that?

Just to clarify again, for example a buy trade would be the 10 MA crosses below the 20 MA, maybe 6-7 candles later it crosses back up, I would want the bot to enter a buy trade when it crosses back up the 20 MA. The process will be reversed for a sell trade.

What’s the quickest way to test your algo if you have slow connection?

@paragorundu @CedieTraderMax @l-andorrà
Thank you guys for the replies, VPS all the way then.

Once the EA model is created, is it worth the investment of using a VPS, my internet is temperamental at times and my laptop isn’t extremely powerful so is it better to just pay 15 a month for a VPS.

Has anyone on here got experience using VPS was it worth it?

@cryptoknight reply directly to his message so he gets a notification

@l-andorrà isn’t there a way to incorporate spread? Can’t you do a variable of “10pips + spread”

@jsauter86 ok so you recommend is just move to MT5 altogether now with my EAs rather than remain using MT4?

@floko125 Hopefully the gurus can help @roar @l-andorrà

@floko125 Ok so you would need to do time filter for when your EA will start and stop. Then use a check profit for the 2%

Hopefully this thread should help too

@floko125 I’m not sure the specifics but I would think you would have to make your EA stop at 10pm with the time filters, then make a condition or variable that the EA automatically stops once the account has grown by 2%. Is that what you’re looking for?

@jsauter86 Ok thank you, so once I’ve finished me EA convert to MT5 to run the backtest? Will results differ from generally running your EA on MT4 and MT5
