OSMA BB Trigger

I want to see if I can code a double trigger, but based on 3 criteria. Yeah, that part is easy enough, but I have never played with indicators applied to other indicators as triggers.

So, check out the chart posted.

This is the Bollinger Bands applied to the OSMA.

Trigger criteria based on the OSMABB, would be:
if (OSMA[2]>upBB[2]&&OSMA[1]<upBB[1]) return (sell);
if (OSMA[2]<loBB[2]&&OSMA[1]>loBB[1]) return (buy);

But, how do I get the EA to understand that the Bollinger is based on the OSMA levels?

(I have never worked with Arrays) and my strongest coding abilities go back to when the use of "GOSUB", and "GOTO", were common phrase...

Any helps would be greatly appreciated.

Interesting question.
I don't know if there is a simple way to do this.
I would guess that the bollinger indi code would need to be modified so that it calculates based on the OSMA values.

You could try this - never tried it myself

I have been searching for something that closely relates. Actually happened upon this same link, but don't have enough information to work with.

Basically, the extent of my coding has been a grand combination of trying to understand what is written, and apply different trade strategies.

Best put, copy n paste

I have had some successes with some of the EAs I am working with, just want to slowly increase my knowledge base and see what else might work.

Current projects:

Some damn decent results with a fairly simplistic code trigger and grid strategy.

BTW
How do you get the BB applied to the OsMA indicator window.
If I try to drag BB or Bands to the indicator window, it still applies to the main chart.

This peaked my interest s I had a go at coding an indicator that combines the OsMA and Bollinger bands using data from the OsMA.
I'm not sure if this is correct or not and I don't know what settings you use in your chart Magix.
I think that this may be the first step as you can use iCustom from your EA to get the BB values

You must drag and drop the BB from the "indicators" list in the navigator. Then apply to "previous indicator's data".

Thanks FerruFX,
it's not something that I have ever tried before, so I didn't know how

Seems like my combination indicator returns the same values in the data window, so it appears to be working properly.
Only thing is that my indi max,min in the window is set by the whichever has the highest/lowest value.
When attaching the BB to the OsMA, the limits are set by the OsMA.
Makes mine look a bit squashed, but I don't suppose that is really a problem.
