Ronald Raygun replied Aug 7, 2008Here is the EA. The system is designed to take regular profits (every x pips), or to take profit at the first opposite tick (When one trade hits the SL). In 6 month backtesting, I go from 10k to 40k, so there's promise in this system.

How to get custom indicator values?

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 7, 2008Your iCustom should look something like this. iCustom(NULL, 0, "EMA Crossover Signal ", FasterEMA, SlowerEMA, 0, 0); I would edit the indicator to set every non-arrow to 0, like so. I find it easier when setting trade logic.
