Forex Software → Technical Indicators → I am having trouble having MA cross closing the trade
Why is the moving average cross not closing up the position?
Is this an error or am i using it wrong?
The idea is to close an open short position when the cross over or the fast ma ( based on Highs) is above the slow... why is it not closing???
it opens correct is getting out that seems to be the trouble
Plz Help
here are the specs 
basically it should have closed at the arrows where it closes is at the end of the day 
The Closing Point of your strategy is "Day Closing". It means that the position will be closed at the end of the day (Close at and of bar 23:00) if the logical condition is satisfied. If you want to close the position at every MA crossover, you have to set "Bar Closing" for closing point of the position.
Thank you Verymuch, i thought that Bar closing would close the trade at the end of the current bar therefore the trade would be just one bar long
Bar closing would close the trade at the end of the current bar therefore the trade would be just one bar long
This is correct if no exit logic conditions are used.
If put some exit filters, FSB will close a position at Bar Closing but only when at least one of the logic conditions is satisfied.
