I am new to automated trading and i need help how how i can build a SMA system that enters a buy when the candlestick crosses the SMA upward and sells when the candlestick crosses SMA downward.

Also i need this system to include Fib expansion (or fib retreatment levels), where it can close half of the profit at 61.8% level and second profit at the 100% level.

Can anyone show me how i can do this or show me if it has been built already.

Greetings.

Sorry, but support team is not freelance programmers. Try to program it by yourself, use video tutorials and previous forum posts.
Then if you have specific question, we will be glad to answer.

Good you made it here.
Nice start, I told you its easy to learn.
Just to get you started ponder on the below, its not built by the book and not how i would do it for myself, just flow example.
I was wrong there was no Fibonacci retracement, but try to do it with some math and a few if's, my retractment percentages calculator is about 15 blocks with all I need.

This strategy still do not run on the historical tester. I think there is a problem with it but i cannot find it, it is confusing now. How did you run it. I try to run it on the historical tester but it will not trade at all

Have you tried running it on the "Visual Jforex" tester?
That is the easiest way to get the bugs out of it and examine the variables before taking it to the JForex platform.
Both above .vfs files work and trade on the "Visual Jforex" tester.

No adjustments, just took out the first 2 blocks as i said above.
Here is your original with the blocks taken out.
Also included is an extra block you might want to link in, so it docent take so many trades, for testing put it right before the buy block, later you can move it up to save processing time (calculations and what not), somewhere after money management and other essentials so it wont stop them.
