Hello Everybody,

I am new here, I decided I would like to create an Expert Advisor. I am busy getting familiar with MQL5 and it is going great! I thought I would start of by creating a simple MA crossover EA, and so far so good.

**BUT**

The problem comes in when I need to open a trade.

I want my EA to only **BUY** if the candle stick after the MA cross _**closes**_ higher than the candle stick at the cross. and do the complete opposite for a **SELL**

I tried using **priceInfo[-1].close** but that obviously that doesn't work. ('_priceInfo_' is the array for mqlRates)

So could this be solved with logic ? Or is there a method that I can use ? And if so any help would be appreciated.

Just a visual explanation:

In other words this is what I would like for a **Buy**:

And for a **Sell**:

You should catch MA value in a handle and then, compare it with Candle price.

priceInfo[-1].close should be replaced by PriceInfo[1].close provided if you have sorted the elements using 'ArraysetAsSeries()' as well as copied the price information using 'CopyData'

You should do a little search for the exact sample code or I may post it in my next post.

A small correction to the above post, the price information should be copied using 'CopyRates'
