hi i am looking for a EA that will open a position for me When there is a cross between two EMA's . when their is a position open and then a cross happens the other way i want the open position to be closed and a new one opened in the other direction, i beleive this is called stop and reverse?

i would also like their to be variable's for:
- lot size (default .01 lot)
- Take profit
-Stoploss
-trailing stop.

if anyone has something like this please post it, i know this is fairly simple to program but i have no expeirience at all.

thanks.

Then you should have patience and perseverence. Google it. There's too many EA for that which are free, and you'll find the one you're looking for if you patience and persevere enough.

This should do what you want.

If you open the EA there are comments inside that explain the settings. Right click on it and select Modify. If you accidently change the code and it won't work, then come back here and download again and copy over the hosed version.

why do you want to bankrupt your account?
No, i whant to earn more. I have made several backtests, and the year 2008 is not so good whith this EA, but if it was a martingale EA, it will be very good.
The back test for this year as it is, is very good, 14%. Very nice.

I have made some changes in the stop loss and in the trailing stop, i have put the trailing stop to zero, and the stop loss to 150 and back tested in the H1.

My idea is start whith 0,1 lot, and if it lose, 0,2 and then 0,4 and then stop.
I know it is a little risky, but no pain no gain.

Can some one help me?

Thanks and sorry for my bad english

Forexflash,

Can you please make one small addition to this ea?

Can you add a pipstep to the martingale function? So after the first order and if martingale is true, it check the pipstep make sure it's greater than pipstep before it will open another order.

thanks

You are guaranteed to lose eventually with an automated Martingale strategy.

It does not matter if your edge is positive. If you exponentially increase your risk of ruin with every trial, you will lose EVERYTHING eventually.

I know these EA's are old news but I still like them so I have been working with a lot of different sma EA crosses (so I can do something besides set and look at 2 monitors all day) and I can't find one that will actually put me in the trade at the cross or close to it..I use 2 sma 70/12 30 min. crosses and trading manually works just fine but in back testing none of the ea's will put you in the trade at the cross...If they would, I would have had many more winners than losers..I printed off some charts after back testing and it showed the programs actually opening the trade as much as 65 pips away from the actual cross..I had it set at a 50 tp and 50 sl so it would have made 50 on the way up and then 50 on the way down but I don't know how to program so I can't change it to make it trade at the crosses..I opened up your ea but could not figure out which settings would fix this problem...Helppppp...

And you NEVER will!! EMA EA's wait for the past to hapen before you get into the trade. Put it on the M15 and you'll be 15 minutes late, M30 - 30 Mins late. Sooner than that and you'll get so many fakeout entries that you'll bankrupt the account quickly and thats not the only problem. You'll get in late and get out WAAAAAY after the reversal has happened. If you're lucky you'll just lose profit, if not you'll lose ALL profit and book a loss. There are ways to anticipate a close but in the end a big sudden move (the current markets!!) will keep you nicely in the negative.

It opens late cuz it has to wait for the candle to close. By then the candle can move 65 pips, so you get in late and it can retrace back up or down, and hit your stop loss.

Hi !

I relly like this EA, but for lower timeframes i would like to use John Ehlers MAMA-bands (MESA Adaptive Moving Average ) instead of standard settings of Fast EMA and Slow EMA, and keep the third (55) EMA as a filter.



Can anyone be helpfull and ode/ add MAMA.mq4 to this Universal MA Cross EA V 1.3 ...Plz

can someone fix the martingale version of this? martingale isn't working after a loss, it opens the same lot size. Maybe if I'm using it manually to short or long?
So if one short position closes with loss, the next position would x2 multiply right? (but I checked only to short) maybe that is the reason? Anyone with coding experience can verify it?
Thanks
