Post From: Autotrade Entry Signals not accurate

Hi SC,

My Autotrade is set to Buy/Sell as soon as price action touches the moving average. I've tried it with both of these codes:

1. CROSSFROMABOVE(L,ID2.SG1 For a long entry on the MA(ID2.SG1) I have Evaluate on Bar close Only "No"
2. ID2.SG1<=H,ID2.SG1>=L for a long entry on the MA (ID2.SG1) I also have Evaluate on Bar close only "No"

The bars are "coloring" correctly as an alert, however, the entries using Autotrade are WAY WAY off in many instances. Sometimes on NQ it's entering 10-14 ticks above the MA for a long trade.

I'm attaching a typical situation.

Any help, advice, or ideas you have would be greatly appreciated!

John
