Moving average cross trading bot

What it is

The moving average cross bot is a trend-following trading bot that enters when a faster moving average crosses a slower one — the classic MA crossover that traders already know from MT4 and MT5 charts. It is for people who searched “moving average cross bot” or “MA trading automation” and want the cross plus filters (slope, higher-timeframe trend, session) rather than a discretionary click.

How it works

Select MA types (EMA, SMA, etc.), periods, timeframe, and whether to trade both directions. Optional filters: ADX, higher-timeframe MA, and avoid trading immediately after a cross in a tight range. Risk is lot-based or percent-based with stop and optional trailing stop. The bot can close on an opposite cross or at a target.

Benefits

• Consistent trend detection without staring at every candle.
• Fast execution once a cross and filters agree.
• Parameters stay visible — you are not hiding the logic in a neural net.
• Fits traders who already backtested a forex MA strategy.
