How complex can an EA get?

How complex or big can an EA get? There are a few trend EAs out there, and there are a few Range EAs out there as well, only problem is that a trending EA wont work in a ranging market, and vice versa. Can an EA be made to "wrap aroound" two or more EAs, so that 1 EA decides which system EA to use. Example, use Firebird in a rangeing market, but as soon as a certian condition is met a trending EA, such as silvertrend takes over?? I know this might be asking a lot of 1 EA, but can it be done? Or is there a limit to how much code can be run in an EA? Just wondering

I've not done this before but I believe you can use "include" to include other EAs in the current EA. I hope there is a more experienced programmer to correct me if I'm mistaken.
