running latest version on latest build
The latest one has so far not opened , because of the SR and MA filters..

Cheers :)

Would it be difficult to implement an option in this EA where everything runs off of bar open? Should be fine for entries, exits, and the MA, but I am not so sure about Slip's beautiful indicator.

Sure. I want the entry to occur on the next bar open after the entry criteria are satisfied. Same for exits. The MA should also calculate off of bar open. I would also like Slips S/R zones calculated off of bar open, but I don't know if that's possible or realistic for that indicator (I think it is, but I am not certain). This is primarily for testing purposes (I wanted to run an in-depth WFA on different pairs), so if it is too much work, then no biggie. Thank you!

Looks not so complicated.. I will later take a look, if I can code a special version for you.

:good: Lately, I love these simple price action based systems, particularly on higher TFs. Maybe an indicator or two as a filter, but that is it. The less, the better.

Tomasso,

What is the difference between MA1TF and MA1TFMAPeriod ?

Do you use MA to move the TP or SL ?

Thanks

The MA1 TF is is timeframe that is used for the MA calculation, MA1TFMAPeriod is the MA averaging period.
No in this version the MA is only used as trend check, not for moving the sl..

Cheers :)
