Need Help building an EA

hi,

i have done a backtesting and forward testing the Eagle method to trade GBP/JPY. I use CCI to exit any open trade.
I exit when the CCI hit the zero line

but, unfortunately this day i missed the CCI crossing. I opened a short on GJ @233.78 and got stopped out @234.78. If i didnt miss the CCI crossing up, i might could exit earlier

so, i think i need an EA to automatic closing my trade, based on CCI(14) crossing.

the EA should be able to close my trade, whenever the CCI hit the zero line


can anybody here help me to build this kind of EA? pls

regards
alfianx

This is simple, I'll take a look.

thanks blue ruby

i'll really wait for this

hi blueruby,

can i ask additional feature

and also in any pair especially GBP/JPY and GBp/USD

many thanks

Hi
I just read this thread and I wanted to say "thank you" blue ruby. No.....I haven't asked for anything, but, it is a great feeling to see how helpful people are. When one person is helped, so are many others. Thanks to Alfianx as
well -for asking!

OK, it's written and I'm testing it.

I've got an open buy on the GBP/JPY, CCI is above 0 and it should be closed when it crosses below.

Got an open sell on USD/CAD, it should be closed when CCI crosses above 0.

While I'm waiting, I'll write the instructions. I'll come back and attach the file later.

OK, you have a trade open.

1. Attach the EA to a chart, any chart. Best to attach to one of the pair that you have the order open for, but you don't have to.

2. Enter the ticket number using the inputs tab.

3. Make sure ExpertAdvisors are turned on with that chart and that you have the smiley face next to the EA name in the upper right corner.

That's it. Leave it alone. If you change the chart timeframe, it doesn't like that.

The EA will check for the order ticket number. If it can't find the ticket, it will give an error on the Terminal window Experts tab.

If it finds your order, it will check to see what the pair is, and will calculate CCI, and establish whether it is above or below 0.

It will calculate CCI using the timeframe of the chart it is attached to. Make sure you understand that.

If the order is a sell order, and CCI crosses from below 0 to above 0, it will close the order.

If it is a buy order, and CCI crosses from above 0 to below 0, it will close the order.

thanks blueruby

i'll wait for that

OK. You can help test it if you want. It has to be tested in realtime, not in strategy tester.

Also, from reading the above, will it do everything you need? No use testing and then changing it.

Here it is, folks.

I haven't had time to do any more testing, so it's user beware. Test it out good on a demo acct and see that it works the way you expect before using it on real money.

That's true for any software!

Someone asked that the EA work on any timeframe, so that's the way I programmed it. It will use the TF from the chart it is on.

So, if you have an order on the GBP/JPY, for example, and you attach the EA to the EUR/USD 30 minute chart and enter the ticket number, the EA will calculate the 30 minute CCI for the GBP/JPY, and close the order based on that.

I'd suggest keeping it on a GBP/JPY chart just to keep things organized.
