EMA 5 and 34 Cross Trading System

tend to catch the longer term moves. Also, I have noticed that the
EMA 5 cross of the EMA 34 approximates the CCI 50 cross of the zero line.

This is my first post of an EA to this forum. I have only tested it
for a short time so I have no results to publish. On another forum
a simple WMA Cross EA was published using the 5 and 20 moving averages
placing a limit order 20 pips away from the cross to filter whipsaws.
If the order was not filled within X number of bars it could be deleted.

User defined parameters are also something that need to be tested to
determine what is optimum. I currently have it set to the following
for a 30 minute chart: Lots 1.0; Stop Loss(S/L) 30;
Take Profit(T/P) 999; Trailing Stop(T/S) 30.

I have downloaded the 5/34 system as a .mql file, but I cannot seem to get it into my Metatrader account. Can you help?
