signal not working

March 3rd, 2017, 12:43 PM

for some reason when i run this signal on Renko bars (box size 0.0005 , Resolution 50 ticks) it doesn't work :

inputs:

Series( Close ),
FastMA( 7 ),
SlowMA( 3 ) ;

variables:
var0( 0 ),
var1( 0 ) ;

var0 = Average( series, FastMA ) ;
var1 = Average( series, SlowMA ) ;

if var0 crosses above var1 then buy next bar at market;
if var0 crosses under var1 then sellshort next bar at market;

AhmedF,

what does "it doesn't work" mean? What is it doing and what are you expecting it to do?

when i run the signal on renko bars it is not showing any trades at all, even though i converted the signal into an indicator to see if the moving averages are crossing which they are

AhmedF,

how many bars did you load on the chart and what is the max bars back setting for the signal? Make sure
that these settings don't block any trades.
