I tried to backtest the EA in MT4 build 670, but got a zero divide error for the indicator (at 76,50).

In the iCustom call of the EA (lines 99, 100) there is no input parameter for the sampling period of the indicator.

Not sure if the new build processes differently, or if this MT4 version of the EA has not been updated.

Are you talking about this EA? What time period for testing do you use? What currency pair and timeframe? Input parameters?

Backtesting on EUR/USD @ M5 (every tick) on 2008-04-01 through 2014-01-24 does not generate any errors.

No, this EA: http://www.earnforex.com/metatrader-expert-advisors/Adjustable-MA-3G

Am I in the wrong thread?

I tested default input, EURUSD M5, tick, and I get zero divide (indicator placed in respective folder).

You were, now I have moved the posts to the correct thread.

Yeah, thanks for finding that bug. It is now fixed. You can redownload the expert advisor and try again.

Version 1.02 has been released. It allows better control over the moving averages used in the expert advisor and also offers fast optimization in the Strategy Tester due to a proper processing of invalid input parameters.

Hello,
I'm new here, this EA running good on backtes with appropriate TP/SL and TF
Can it modified to close running order by opposite of MA cross
Example : Running Buy position will be closed after meet Sell condition and continued with Opened Sell position
Thank you

 

[Enivid]

@Freddy Tri, the EA is already functioning this way - it closes the previous trade on an opposite signal and opens a new one. Please use the input parameter MinDiff if you want to increase the sensitivity of the crosses. You might also want to remove this part of the code if you want the difference between MAs of less than 1 standard pip to qualify as a cross:

    // Checking for unconvetional Point digits number.
   if ((Point == 0.00001) || (Point == 0.001))
   {
      Poin *= 10;
      Deviation *= 10;
   }

Okey thank you Sir
But it didn't work on mt5, the opposite positions open but the previous not closed

But it didn't work on mt5, the opposite positions open but the previous not closed

It does not work in MT5 hedging mode. Should work fine in MT5 netting mode.

Version 1.03 released to fix the EA operation in MT5 hedging mode and to use smart ECN mode detection.

What time frame do we use it on? Time frame on chart?

Do you have objection if I convert it to a trade manager and post it here?

When I backtested it back in 2014, it has shown very good performance on EUR/USD @ M5.

You can modify it however you wish as long as you keep the original copyrights notice intact. Thanks!

Version 1.04 of the Adjustable MA 3G EA has been released it adds some new options and fixes some order management issues. Please don't forget that Adjustable MA 3G is just an experimental EA, it's not sustainably profitable in backtests.

 

[Enivid]

Version 1.05 of the Adjustable MA 3G EA is now available:

• Added a status panel via the chart commentary.
• Added an input parameter for trailing stop trigger profit.
• Added input parameters to restrict trading on certain days of the week.
• Added support for cross-midnight time periods.
• Added validation for more of the input parameters on initialization.
• Added None as a trading direction to only close trades or trail stops without opening new positions.
• Changed the start/end time input parameters from strings to integers to allow backtesting optimization based on time periods.
• Changed the EA to work with points only without assuming what a pip is for a given trading instrument.
• Changed Magic number from an implicitly calculated value to a modifiable input parameter.
• Fixed a bug with position closing that could (very rarely) occur with the MT4 version of the EA.
• Fixed multiple issues in the money management function of the EA.
