    hey everybody

    i’m new to proorder (not to trading hopefully).

    came here to code a strategy based on SMA first derivative (i.e. Current SMA versus previous SMA). Seems pretty basic to follow the trend but I don’t see anything on the strategies nor screeners … it’s always relative values of SMA between themselves

    Greg
