Average

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))

Screener (Filter)

I just noticed you said ‘Long’ so you probably need this?
```
If SUMMATION[20] (ExponentialAverage[20](close) crosses over ExponentialAverage[50](close)) Then

Buy 1 Contract at Market

Endif
```

… 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”.
