The MA Crossover MT5 EA - an automated trading system that uses moving average crossovers to trigger buy and sell signals. It is designed for MetaTrader 5 (MT5) and utilizes multiple moving averages (MAs) to identify and act on trend shifts. This EA is ideal for traders who follow moving average crossover strategies to capture market trends.
This page sells the MT5 MA Crossover EA source code, the .mq5 file itself. You compile it in MetaEditor 5, run it on your own account and change anything you want, because the file carries no licence check and no encryption.
- Platform: MetaTrader 5, a single .mq5 file
- Strategy: two moving averages crossing, with trend confirmation
- Works on: any pair and any timeframe you tune it for
- Good for: learning MQL5, because the logic is short and readable
- Delivery: instant download, with a discount when you pay in crypto
What MA Crossover EA does
The robot watches two moving averages. When the fast one crosses above the slow one it buys, and when it crosses below it sells, which is the oldest trend rule there is and still the clearest one to study in code.
Around that core sit the parts that decide whether the idea survives a real account: the exit conditions, the position sizing and the filters that keep it out of a flat market. All of them appear as plain inputs at the top of the file.
What you get with the MT5 MA Crossover EA source code
- The complete .mq5 file, with nothing removed.
- The crossover block, with both periods and the method of each average.
- The exit rules, stop loss, take profit and the opposite signal.
- The sizing block, fixed lots or a percentage of the balance.
- Instant delivery on your account page, and a discount when you pay with crypto.
Why the source and not the compiled robot
The section above describes the rules, although a description never replaces the code. In the file you see the exact periods, the order in which the conditions are checked and what happens when two of them disagree.
With that in your hands you can change the pair, the hours and the risk, add a filter of your own or take the block you like and drop it into another robot. Nothing expires and nothing phones home.
If you do not need the code and only want to run the robot, the compiled version costs far less: is on binaryforexea.com. Buy the source when you want to read it, change it or make it yours.
How to compile and install it
- First, download the file from your account page right after checkout.
- Then open MetaEditor 5 from MetaTrader 5, with F4 or the editor button.
- After that, place the file in the Experts folder and press Compile.
- Finally, refresh the Navigator and drag MA Crossover EA onto a chart.
- Run it on a demo account first, and read every input before you go live.
If the compiler complains, our guide on compiling MQL source covers the usual causes. In most cases it is simply a missing include or the wrong folder.
Licence and what you may do with it
You buy the file, not a rental. Study it, modify it, compile it and run it on as many of your own accounts as you like, for as long as you like.
Reselling carries one firm condition: it has to become your product. Change the name and change the copyright line inside the code, so what you sell goes out under your brand and not ours. Selling it with our EA name, our brand or our site as the reference is not allowed, and neither is passing the same file along untouched. If the file carries a licence note inside, that note comes first.
More code of this kind sits in the trend following source code, and if you want to read working MQL before you spend anything, the free EA source code library is open. The idea behind the moving average crossover is explained well on this reference page.
