    Hi,

    How do I code the following condition?

    Long

    20 Exponential Moving average crosses over the 50 Exponential moving average in the last 20 bars

    Assuming you want a Screener, try this?

    Filter = SUMMATION[20] (ExponentialAverage[20](close) crosses over ExponentialAverage[50](close))

    I just noticed you said ‘Long’ so you probably need this?

     

    If SUMMATION[20] (ExponentialAverage[20](close) crosses over ExponentialAverage[50](close)) Then

    … and how would I also test if price crossed over the 50EMA in the previous X bars?

    I tried the below but didn’t work:

    SUMMATION[X](close) crosses over ExponentialAverage[50](close)) Then

    GraHal were almost correct, the summation should be tested if it is at least equal to 1:

    If SUMMATION[20] (ExponentialAverage[20](close) crosses over ExponentialAverage[50](close))>=1 Then

 Buy 1 Contract at Market

Endif

    Here, the moving average cross over may have occured more than once, you can also modified the condition with “=1” instead of “>=1”.
