{quote} The tests you posted are from v5_1, where any loop back bars number < 2 is not used. The minimum is 2 because we are comparing the last close price (bar1) with at least bar2 price setting it to 0 (or 1) means disabling it. Anyway I brought it back to be able to disable it if one likes to use the MA only. (I will re-upload it in post # 535) This is a Cross_Trader_06 back test from 1/1/2016 till today on GJ H1 {image}
great job! would you provide your set file, will set up a terminal.

Thank you thodie,

I didn't perform extensive testing. These settings are just round numbers. That test was done with default settings while disabling MA, so the trigger used is only "loop back bars =default 2). Entry type is fixed for Cross Trader to Break High/Low (close option removed).

(set file attached).

PS : I've just discovered a bug which could only affect CADCHF cross. EA file with bug fixed is also attached.

EDIT : Deleted a set file posted by mistake.

This is a cross pair trader. It will not trade major pairs. It trades crosses based on majors.Example : if you put the EA on EURCHF chart. It will trade EURCHF based on EURUSD and USDCHF.

What is "Max ATR multiplies to MA" setting mean ?
The Maximum Distance to the Moving Average for opening a trade in terms of ATR multipliers. This was added to avoid opening a buy trade at the top or a sell trade at the bottom where reversal is possible.

So for example, if price is 1.2250, ATR is 20 pips, MA is 1.2150, and you set "Max ATR multiplies to MA" to 3 which is translated to 3x20=60 pips, the EA will ignore the buy signal at this price because its 100 pips away from the MA.

Such a filter was suggested by thodie , see post # 36 and post # 461.

I am terribly sorry, must be lack of sleep, the 6.1 version posted has Hedging Enabled and max orders set to 2 as I was testing, while they should be defaulted to False and 1 respectivly.

This 6.2 with these re-defaulted to their original values.
I am off to sleep, have a good night.

Are MA period and ATR period both off of the daily or the current TF?

Current.

I noticed the erratic nature of ATR values on short time frames, so I will apply the square root formula suggested by GoldeTheHun in ATR Break Out thread:

ATRforTimeFrame = DailyATR(30) /sqrt(1440 / TradingTimeFrame)

While doing further tests, I discovered few issues regrading Trailing Stop, Break Even Stop and Profit Lock. I am working on it and will post shortly.
