maEnvelopes problem

[PLeary]

i don't want to enter if i'm approaching the 200 MA. I'm using the envelopes below. No matter how small or large I make the # (0.0001 now), it still enters a historical trade at 1.3259 when 200MA is just 1 tick higher (1.3260). Am i doing this wrong? Can I do this with a # of ticks instead of a %? It's just confusing to use %.

If (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat
&& CrossAbove(EMA(Fast), SMA(Slow), 1)
&& Close[0] < MAEnvelopes(0.0001, 3, ma200).Upper[0]
&& Close[0] > MAEnvelopes(0.0001, 3, ma200).Lower[0])
{ EnterLong(DefaultQuantity, "");
}

Hi PLeary,

The MAEnvelope indicator cannot be supplied with ticks.

However, try using >= and <= instead of < and >.

If (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat
&& CrossAbove(EMA(Fast), SMA(Slow), 1)
&& Close[0] [B]<= [/B]MAEnvelopes(0.0001, 3, ma200).Upper[0]
&& Close[0] [B]>= [/B]MAEnvelopes(0.0001, 3, ma200).Lower[0])
{	 EnterLong(DefaultQuantity, "");
}
