@mrfilthy11 Hello!!! By using the "adjust" field

-
@ambrogio how fantastic are you ... huge thanks
-
actually i ran that in a test.. and checked the chart... what +(x) pips do in the adjust field is not put the trade in for that many candies after the cross.. that's not the same as trade executing 4 pips after it crosses

@mrfilthy11 Please remember that 'crossing' is not a real thing in MT4. What a human observer can see as a two lines crossing on chart doesn't have a mathematical reality behind. Lines are formed by dots on each candle position. That means a 'crossing' happens when values of both lines are one above the other when compared to the previous candle. Crossings are visual artifacts in MT4/5.
