George, It was not sorted with the MA1=3 and MA2=8 periods. My input settings are as in my last post. Are you using the EA and can you post your settings?

No you have to add some MA periods, like e.g. 55 and 100

Thread is pretty old as is the EA and the method. There are only so many ways you can code a moving average crossover.

You have to set "alerts only" = False in order for the EA to actively make trades. In order to get alerts ALONE, without actually making trades, set "alerts only" = True.
There are many ways and settings to trade crossovers...a little research will show you some of them. When you start playing with it a little, you'll start getting a feel for it and start tweaking the parameters to suit your style more.
All the best.

Hi Ronald,


I am looking for two moving average crossover dashboard.Do you have anything related to this. Where I can change the moving average value,type.price everything.Also I can put additional filter for distance in pips between two moving average. Here is the link for the strategy.

I could not find any dashboard for two moving average cross. Can you help?

MA indicator, I think this is a slow indicator
in the "TF Minutes" it would be a lot of mistakes
anticipation is the TP san SL
and I think a safe 20 pips TP
specifically in this EA without SL is not a problem
because he had the "close" due to the intersection of two MA
