    Dear sir
    thanks for the modified version

    issue : eg my strategy is entry on signal line cross zero & 50 sma shift 50. most of the time the signal line crosses the zero line before the price moves above the MA. But as the MA is a filter no trades are executed. kindly give a solution as i cannot reduce the MA period as it will hamper my strategy .

    Dear sir
    kindly refer the screen shot file uploaded . it can be seen that the signal line crossed the zero line way before the price moves above the moving average. Now as the ma acts as a filter to the entry signal , no trades are happening in that condition . i donot want to reduce the ma period( 50sma shift 50) as it will hamper my strategy.

    kindly provide a solution to this problem
    regards

    The default EA would have opened a SELL trade at around 16:05. If you choose to use the “MA Trend Filter” and the “Signal Line Crosses Zero”!

    But since I have made you a modified version of the Filter, the EA did not open the SELL trade because the price was below the MA Trend Filter.

    I highly recommend you to use the strategy tester to setup your EAs! The EAs do 99% of the time what they should. If the settings are wrong, the EA does not trade as expected.

    Dear sir
    i request you to kindly change the MA filter to MA condition thus in this case the EA will open a trade when both the conditions are fulfilled irrespective of which one will satisfy the condition first. unlike if you keep the MA as filter the EA will not open a trade if the MA crosses later than MACD signal line cross as it is filter.
    THE EA cannot be put to use as it doesn’t suit my strategy unless the above mentioned changes are made. kindly help me

    I’m sorry to hear that you did still not found the settings that fit your needs.

    I do not make a custom modification for about a year now, but made an exception for you.

    Unfortunately, I am not willing to make another modification (free or paid).

    If you are not happy with the EA, I advise you to either use one of the strategies it provides or to take advantage of my exchange guarantee and switch to another product for free.

    DEAR SIR

    MACD PRO PROBLEMS

    in the modified version

    you had provided me the modified version
    CASE in the modified version
    STRATEGY : SIGNAL LINE CROSSES ZERO
    INVERSE STRATEGY : true ( TAKES OPPOSITE TRADE) ( NO PROBLEM : I CAN INVERSE IT)

    MA FILTER : filter has been made effective in the modified version.

    CASE
    STRATEGY : MACD LINE CROSSES ZERO
    INVERSE STRATEGY : FALSE ( TAKES OPPOSITE TRADE) ( NO PROBLEM : I CAN INVERSE IT )
    REVERSE ON OPPOSITE : TRUE OK
    MA FILTER : NOT EFFECTIVE ( AS IF THE FILTER DOESNOT EXIST)……………….THIS IS A PROBLEM

    request you to make the rectification as i have changed my entry criteria for MACD LINE CROSS ZERO.

    ( NOTE : IF YOU PROVIDE A EA AS PER THE FUNCTION DESCRIPTION GIVEN ON YOUR WEB PAGE IT DOESN’T REQUIRE ANY MODIFICATION OR ODD WORKS UNFORTUNATELY THE CODING DOESN’T MATCH AS PER THE DESCRIPTION. IF YOU CAN PROVIDE A EA COPY CODED MATCHING THE WEB DESCRIPTION & FUNCTIONING ACCORDINGLY I WOULD BE GRATEFUL.)

    Can you please upload your settings for this case? And maybe a screenshot where the MA Filter has failed.
    This uses the modified MACD EA with an inverted MA Filter right?
