For most of you it will be easy but i like to know how to built a strategie with a moving average falling or rising. Example: If the MA is rising go long.
I hope this is doable with the Ninjatrader assistant. Thanks for you helb in advance.

Welll here is what I do. Good as I can get it. NFS stands for not full stop. Which I have set too 25 ticks for the start of the trade. 2 stands for 2 contracts and (W) for Win. I increase my contracts when I have a better chance. The little green arrows shws where I exited shorts. The little white arrows shows where I exited longs. So this is a MA system with a MACD

I was out for a couple of days but i was absolutly impressed after i saw what you answered.

Hey you guys are very cool and smart! Thanks a lot.

Now my last question. I like to use an indicator for my strategietest witch got an aerea of overbought and oversold.
So if the numbers are gettig above for example 70 or below -70 i will go long or short.

How can i put this into my strategie? The indicator is : SMI2_v01.zip here at futures.io (formerly BMT)

Again thanks a lot for looking over.
