The 2 new methods are :

// MA_Method=19: VWMA - Volume Weighted Moving Average

You've probably already seen this, but I have a couple of observations.

In ReadIndicatorValues() you have a "return" statement after testing that SlowUpTrendSignal > -1, which skips the AllAverages test later.

More importantly, perhaps, the exit criteria doesn't use the AllAverages test, so it is possible that even though you have an opposite cross of BBands, if the AA slope doesn't change you set the direction to "none" and then your test in start() doesn't close the open trade.

Does it make sense to add an option to your standard TrendDetectionModule() for UseAATrendDetection() and then handle like you do with the other trend detection options? I'm not sure the AllAverages test has been proven as well as the others in your template, but it might simplify matters. The faster option is probably to just add an AATrend variable and set that separately, but I'm always trying to think in terms of code reuse.

Cheers. This reminds me I need to put the indi in post 1.

I won't use this one for now, as it has a different name to the one used by the EA, but I will update the code sometime. In the meantime, anyone who wants to use this version in this post, can copy it over the top of the old one, keeping the same old name.

Have fun. Let's see if this baby can sing.

Steve,

It sang quite well today, the first day I have live traded (manual entries) the EA and its mirror off Empty4 and MultiCharts -- DDE data fed for tick chart.

The mirror EA is the one where I changed all OP_BUY to OP_SELL, and all OP_SELL to OP_BUY! Because , when I sat down to trade EURUSD was mostly ranging, and I thought it advisable to trade accordingly and SHORT only.

A small beginning, and an eventual hands-off trading journey ahead.

Heartfelt thanks to Jiva and you.

Anyone have a .set file that's working for them? Would like to get this puppy running so I can play with it. I am running it on EU tried 1M and 5M.
