    hi all, i need some help to improvise this strategy. The following moving average needs improvements as there are positions being opened in a fluctuating market resulting in heavy loss as shown in the picture attached. Can someone help to modify it ?

    Required improvements
    1. BUY only if current price is more than previous close

    Problems
    1. Positions opened in fluctuating markets
    2. Position open on par with open rate resulting in ZERO / Loss senarios
    3. Strategy only useful in a trending upwards market
    =========================================================================

    Hi,

    For clarity of messages on ProRealCode’s forums, please use the “insert PRT code” button to separate the text of the code part! Thank you! <<

    (PRT code has been edited above, and this is how it should look like when using the “insert PRT code” button)

    About your first request, you could replace your c1 condition with this one instead:

    Concerning the “problems” you mentioned, this is indeed what you have to face with a  strategy build upon criteria of trend following.
