Stochastic Cross EA

Here is a stochastic cross EA.

This is basically how it works:
If the %K line crosses below the %D line during the previous candle/bar and the %K line is above 80 it goes short.
If the %K line crosses above the %D line during the previous candle/bar and the %K line is below 20 it goes long.

Stochastic settings: 8,3,3

Inputs:
Lotsize, Stop loss, Take Profit.

Coded to work on any timeframe. Won't open a trade, if a trade on the pair is already open. Has no MM feature.

This is a new baby project of mine. If you would like this modified let me know. I'm hoping to get some results and improve this crude EA. I'm not a pro programmer, i just took a programming course in college and have written a few programs for fun.
If you use this please post results and sl/tp inputs, they would be greatly appreciated.

I'm posting this for a couple reasons:
1) I'd like to make a contribution, however small, to this great community on Forex Factory.
2) I'd like to help get help in making a profitable EA/trading system.

Maybe this is a pipe dream, but constructive help/comments would be greatly appreciated in the common pursuit of making pips

Updated: Should work on both 4 and 5 digit brokers now

Hi, I tried your EA on my demo this morning with a a 5min chart. It worked beautifully. Thanks. I am going to try it on a 5 min going only in the direction of the 1 hour or Daily trend.

this one not work at all
try pput it agian

hi Roy
could you please add a stop and reverse to your ea,i think this would enable us to get more pips profit on the lower time frames.

Hi Roy,
This is something ive been interested in doing for quite a while, but just never got round to the coding bit!!

Ive got it on Alpari UK demo using the following

EURUSD 5M
S.L - 15 T.P - 5 - Lot size - 0.1

Ill let you know how it goes

hi, any one can help for further development of this EA?
I am using stochastic for my entry in my manual analysis, in higher TF.
And I approach the line in different way. I only use 50 line. and the stop loss is using the swing high of the price, which can be indicate with fractal indicator..
Does any one can help ? tq.

2 years later....

Thank you for the EA

Just so you know, I messed around with the settings and wasn't getting anywhere, so pls don't get your hopes up. apart from that - you're welcome

Hi royconnell,

I am looking for a simple ea that will simply close an open trade when the stochastic crosses.
MM, tp, sl etc is not required, just a close function.

Is this ea able to function like that?

Thanks

Sorry, no it won't do that. Maybe you could ask around here and someone could program that for you. It would be pretty easy, but I haven't been programming for a while so I'm not current.
good luck

No problem, royconnell...

thanks for taking the time to respond

hello royconnell, you set the setting to 8,3,3 for the stochastics.
i use different settings it would be great if it was possible to change these setings in the ea.

best regards

Please email me,

Thanks

No more updates about this EA since 2009. I doubt if it still works.

Hi royconnell,

Actually i'm looking for a simple EA which is able to help me close the trade by only 1 standard indicator . I hope that i can do it by my own. That's why i'm looking for a template which is similar with it then i can edit it and learn some coding skill.

Anyone can provide me the template or help me to code it?

This is my design:

Entry: I will manually execute my trade
Stop loss: I will manually set it
Take profit: Follow EA setting

The take profit rules is depending on the stochastic indicator which was already in MT4.
Once stoch close below 20 : close the short trade at close price
Once stoch close above 80: close the long trade at close price
However, i also will set how much profit i wish to take , it is depend on which ever come first!

EA variable:
Stochastic :%K period, %D period, Slowing , MA method, price field

hi. i just enrolled as a junior member to this site. I found this forum while searching for a EA that will automatically buy and sell any currency pair while using a mt4 platform and utilizing the full stochastic indicator. I have never tried using a EA and therefore have no idea how to install one to the mt4 platform I use for trading nor understand how to start using one so please keep everything extremely simplistic and easy to understand. I also have never joined a forum so i have much to learn. I have read some of the posts here and found that you all seem to want to be helpful so here i am. Hopefully someone can help me. I'm looking for a simple to understand EA that will automatically buy a currency pair in the following time frames ( 5m, 15m, 30m, 1 hr) when the blue solid line of the stochastic crosses up thru the broken red line as it approaches the 20 line during its descent...but if both cross beneath the 20 line the auto buy should only occur when the blue crosses the red and then both cross up thru the 20 line and then is sold or closed out when the blue line crosses down thru the red line as it ascends toward the 80 line....but if both cross the 80 line the sell should occur as the blue line crosses down thru the red and both cross down thru the 80 line. and if possible and not too much trouble..before the initial buy is generated i would like to have a option available that will automatically allow a short to execute right after all sells are executed as well as a cover for the short just before the next buy is generated and executed. and if there is a reverse any place between the 20 and 80 lines and a cross over occurs and the prior execution was a buy then a sell order should be executed and followed by a short etc. and of course the ability to turn the program on and off.........this type of EA may be too much to ask for but i hope not... any help would be appreciated.

The Stochastics cross uses levels to fire a signal.
Is there an alert signal for when the two stochs lines (K & D) cross within set levels?
The indicator only fires a signal when the levels are broken (80/20 being the default setting).
Thanks
George
