Ferru, would the ea work on hourly charts?
It should work even on M1 with the exact same rules ...

Ok, here's one possible improvement. Only take shorts when below the 100 sma and only take longs when above. This would reduce the amount of trades by half but might help things on the lower timeframes.

Ferru, could you code that as an option into the EA please? Thanks.

Do we check the MA on the closed candle or on the current one at the time of the pending placement ?

On the closed candle. If the candle closes below the 100 sma with momentum (the 75% ATR real body tells us this) then it's a good sign it may continue the next day. The 38.2% retrace might even be back to the sma.

Just woken up to find this. Surely it should have cancelled the pending order already when it reached the 0.75 retrace level?

Ferru, I think there's a problem with the ma filter. I tested hourly data for the first two months of this year and without the filter it takes 72 trades. With a 50 sma filter it takes 75 trades. Surely it should take less trades?!
