When you have a small number of libraries, yes, but when you start increasing the number of libraries, it's far easier to just pass parameters back and forth instead of having shared global variables.

Can I get a little help with EA which includes many functions?

Should be at most 1 trade per bar... Can you go into the experts tab and e-mail me the data from 30 mins before the first trade and 30 mins after the last trade? (RonaldRaygunForex(AT)gmail(dot)com

Would it make a difference in resource usage if I can shrink the chart and instead access the HST files?

This EA is running on Intel Xeon x3440 with 16GB ram. I fully agree that this is resource-intensive. As for streamlining the code, I'd love to hear your tips lionsden

Varies. I've seen institutional trades going 10 digits. Granted, these were 3-4 billion dollar deals. How many bars? Technically, the EA is infinitely initializing itself, so no, if you want to disable the EA, you need to remove it.

Just look for generic MA crossover version 2

Can somebody please code me this EA using MA6 and EMA63

Apparently, the EA's optimization told it 200 pips is correct. Go to [metatrader folder]expertsfiles and look through the [EA Name] [ EA Pair ] Permutation Settings.csv

You're quite welcome. The EA can place trades theoretically immediately when the optimization is finished.

Interesting, I'll look into it. For now, just use winrate.

Yep. Once I'm done with a few more pressing matters, I need to start load balancing the incoming ticks.

Zoogle pointed out yet another bug to me. There was a line where the MinimumWinRate for the Counter-Trend side was 100 times larger than it should've been. This has been fixed. I also incorporated Faze's suggestion. For the WinRate, RiskReward, and ...
