Topic: MA opening logic

Hello All,

I just downloaded the software to check out whether I would be able realise and automate some of my trading strategies.
First I tried the most simple one.

Opening logic based on MA Simple

MA (Period10, current bar (0)) > MA (Period10, previous bar(1))
and
MA (Period10, current bar (0)) > MA (Period10, previous bar(2))

I already failed to fill in this easy opening logic displayed above, since it is not the price itself that should be above the previous price rather then the value of the MA (at the end of the bar time period) that should be higher as the value of the same MA the bar befor.

Is such a case not implemntable with the tool?

Re: MA opening logic

Footon is right. Just set Bar Opening as "Opening Point of the Position" and these two indicators as "Opening Logic Conditions".

FSB will trade the mirrored short conditions automatically.
