Yes, you can adjust the MA value in the properties box when you attach the EA. Set the value you want in the "MA_Period" setting, and off you go. Everything that pertains to will adjust accordingly. Also, the values of the directional MAs are sat to ...
EMA-based EA needed

Here's a basic working shell. Your MA looked like an EMA sat to 55 on the one hour chart, so that's the default. It has a directional bias based on whatever MA period you choose, but you're stuck with an EMA for the type. What I mean by bias is, if ...

From what you said so far, that's just a basic EA to code, but the instructions aren't specific enough. Post up a pick with specifics about the MA, and entry rules. That would help a ton.

Probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 5%?

Just a side note, I've noticed that EA builders generally add unnecessary steps, likely making the code much longer than it needs to be. I noticed this because I used to use EA builders, but also learned to code. The more I got accustomed to writing ...

That's not all... Comment out that external variable by using //extern int MA_1Shift = 0; Then recompile. It won't recompile correctly. You should get "MA_1Shift - Variable Not Defined" Errors. When you click on them, it will put your cursor in ...

It looks like the idea is a script to use when the semaphore shows up on a new high or low. Except reading the rules, it probably needs to be a one time called EA not a script, as it has to calculate entry size, whether it's a buy or sell, where the ...

Keep in mind, if your MT4 has lost connection, it's likely you've lost connection altogether, and your alert may not be able to send you an email in the first place until well after the fact.

After the first quick glance, I realize I missed something. To change the thickness of the lines, the coder broke it down early on. Ignore the setup I posted for changing thickness, and look at one line of code: #property indicator_width1 1 Change ...

The colors and thickness can be changes upon opening the indi on your chart. Should you want to change them permanently, the line of codes to look at are these two: #property indicator_color1 White Change the "White" there to Red, or Green, or Blue, ...

Found this one a while ago. It's very smooth running, and has great error accounting. I've seen a couple versions of this on the net. I think the original was written by IgorAD. Since it's price crossing an MA, you only need the EMA 5 with the 3 ...

Pivots average price out. There are several pivot methods. And there are pivot indis abounding. Just google them.
