Hello, I’m new here!
I tried a simple EA – this is ok, but now the problem with the trend or the volatility.
The EA is only to open a trade with strong Vola. Only if the price is up and not in sideways.
How could this be done?
My idea: Go “long” when:
1. Is the angle of the EMA100 greater than 30% or when EMA100 rises?
2. The distance of the bars (close) to the EMA 20 is greater than 50 PIPS?
3. or above volume?
Looking forward to answers

Hello,
with EMAs you will be always behind the market since lagging effect of the indicator. A good method could also be to count # of Close above EMA
Let’s say 40 of 50 candles closed above EMA 50 – we can consider it to be an uptrend, 10 of 50 can be considered as a downtrend. Everything between is a sideways market. This is not a bad method but still a lagging one. You will often catch the move when it is finishing. This fact means that many EAs will fail in testing
