Take trades when MAs touch the same candle stick - 09/16/22 18:08

Hi I have looked at the manual but can’t find what I’m after,
I would like too take trades long or short when my 2 moving averages both touch the same candle stick take long trades when the 8 MA is above the 20 and vice Versa, I can see how you code a MA cross over but not seen what I’m after.
Thanks

Not the Zorro manual but a C course is better for codng questions.

You combine conditions with the && operator. For finding if MA1 and MA2 touch the same candle stick:

if(priceH() >= MA1 && priceL() <= MA1 && priceH() >= MA2 && priceL() <= MA2 && MA1 > MA2) ...

C is a simpler language than C++. When in doubt, start with C.
