// This is the one used successfully by Jean-François 
//
// Designed for M5 but I attached it to M15 and it worked fine.
//	long if EMA3>EMA7:::EMA3<EMA7<0 
// Code Adapted from  Scalper EAs to use EMA and RSI and multiple currencies


// v4 - Fixed a couple of ELSE statements that should NOT
//      have been there

// Spent a LOT of time debugging the backtester

// v11- added sell-&-hedge
//      added abandon-after-#-of-ticks
//      added init() section to load optimized symbol info


/*
Theory of operation

Based on MA3 of Bar[1],  MA7 of Bar[1]  and  RSI of Bar[2]

ENTRY LONG When:
MA3(Bar[1]) is greater than MA7(Bar[1]) by at least 1 pip
RSI(2-period Bar[2]) greater than 50

ENTRY SHORT When:
MA3(Bar[1]) is less than than MA7(Bar[1]) by at least 1 pip
RSI(2-period Bar[2]) less than 50

EXIT #1:
# of ticks to abandon trade is exceeded, 
trade is closed, and another is opened in the opposite direction

EXIT #2
TakeProfit (optimized) or Stoploss(optimized)

MONEY MANAGEMENT
-none-

RISK MANAGEMENT
TP/SL ~ .5  that is, SL is 2X TP mitigated by reversing hedge

TIME FRAME
15 MINUTES
also works well at 1 HOUR
