    The EA should trade as it shows in this screenshot by default.

    If you want to open a sell position when the MACD Histogram and Signal Line are below 0, you have to set inverse strategy to true.

    If I want to open a sell position when the MACD Signal Line go below 0, & set inverse strategy to false . The EA opens a buy position instead of sell.

    Then set inverseStrategy to true and it will to the opposite.

    Other problems with the MACD EA pro

    1) THE EA TEND FILTER = TRUE IT DOESNOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE MA . Eg I USED THE 200 MA AS FILTER THE EA OPENS A BUY POSITION EVEN WHEN THE MACD SIGNAL LINE IS ABOVE ZERO BUT THE PRICE IS STILL BELOW THE 200 MA.

    2) I MOSTLY USE THE 50 MA & SHIFT 50 . BUT THE EA DOESNOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE MA FILTER.

    3) REVERSE ON OPPOSITE SIGNAL = TRUE . THE EA DOESNOT CLOSE THE POSITION. Eg THE ENTRY IS SIGNAL LINE ABOVE THE ZERO BUT THE EA DOESNOT CLOSE THE CURRENT TRADE EVEN AFTER THE OPPOSITE SIGNAL , WHEN THE SIGNAL LINE IS BELOW THE ZERO
    4 ) KINDLY GIVE ME A RECTIFIED VERSION OF THE EA

    If you use InverseStrategy, the filter is also inverted.

    The EA does only close and open a new position if there is a new signal. If you use the MA filter, there is probably not always a signal in the opposite direction.

    Please read again the documentation:

    AS the EA is not functioning properly i cannot use my favorite strategy

    time frame M15
    inverse strategy = false malfunctioning as it takes opposite trades
    MA filter = MA 50 , SHIFT 50 It doesnot respect the MA FILTER.OR MAY BE BECAUSE THE INVERSE STRATEGY IS FALSE.

    I CANNOT PUT THE EA INTO USE DUE TO THE MALFUNCTION. KINDLY THE CASES DESCRIBED IN THE EARLIER POST

    KINDLY PROVIDE A RECTIFIED VERSION OF THE macd pro EA

    You do not understand. The EA is not malfunctioning. The strategy you have in mind is just inverse.

    Nonetheless, I have made a modification and sent it to you by mail. I have inverted the logic of the MA trend filter to match your strategy.
