Hi White grid it seems you have not read the thread and the manual...

Your lookback minutes are set at 2880 minutes so it will only give and arrow and a highlight if you had price cross over your Ma in the last 2880 minutes so if you want to see an arrow you will have to set your lookback higher but remember this will put more load on your computer...

another thing is that you seem to be looking for an ma cross of 7 and 14 on the daily timeframe..this will be irrelevant because u have specified method for calculation as single line Ma so the highlight will only appear if the candle closes above the 14 Ma. and not after an Ma cross..

I suggest that you read through the manual Pdf that Rene posted on the first page...You will not be sorry

So, why isn't my setfile showing so few arrows on D1 and as results it wont take any trades. When i exclude D1 it starts trading.
Can please someone help on this? i really would like to add D1 to the setfile too.
The Ea is not taking trades off the daily and the 4 hour timeframe because you have not specified them in the currency strength test...you have only specified 5 and 15 minutes so the ea will only trade off that...

No D1 is excluded (as it wasnt showing arrows) but H4 is set to: At least 4 same signals. So it should be working in the currency strength, isnt it?
Which MA do you suggest for D1? I'm not an expert on MA's... :oops:

The arrows appear if you had a crossover at the close of the candle (Method for calulation = Ma crosover) or if u specified (Method for calculation = Ma single line) Candle must close above the Ma then arrow will appear for the timeframe specified..The symbol column will be highlighted if you have 4 arrows up or down on the t/frames specified in the currency strength check..If you have set it to 5 it will need 5 arrows...only then and only then will Mad trader 1.1 start looking for a trade..

You will have to use smaller Ma's on the daily if you want to trade in the intermediate term direction...6 and 12 Lwma set to open should be ok..

Hope this helps..

Whitegrid I have done some minor tweaks on you settings..right now Gj is ready for a trade provided your conditions are met on Madtrader v 1.1 Ea...notice how I have included the daily time frame in the currency strength check with 4 same signals...I have also increased your lookback to 10080 so that you can at least get a trade for now...in the direction of the daily timeframe...at some stage you can decrease it again
