Simple indicator for price crossover on MA

[Turtle Trader]

Is there a simple indicator in Ninja or shared code for a simple price crossover of an MA?

That is, an alert when the current price crosses an MA?

Thx

Turtle Trader,

I am happy to assist you.

There is a SampleMACrossOver strategy that comes with NinjaTrader which can be access through Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Strategy. You can modify it so instead of entering orders, it generates an alert instead using the following code : http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...html?alert.htm

There is also a tutorial for making a MA crossover strategy in our help guide. Once again, instead of orders you can simply create an alert condition.

Here is a link : http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h..._cross_ove.htm

We also have a strategy development webinar, the next one being 12/13/2011 at 5:30 EST that goes over how to do this interactively.

Here is a webinar schedule : http://www.ninjatrader.com/webinars

Please let me know if I may assist further.

current price

If I wanted the current price to be the crossover, then would I use Close[0], instead of the SMA(Fast)?

That's correct Turtle Trader - that would be then price crossing an SMA.
