Newbie: ICustom Help (MT4)

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Using iCustom in MT4 "Calculates the specified custom indicator and returns its value" but which value?

 

If the custom indicator called has three buffers, all of which are "returned" and plotted in a separate window, how do I specify which of these buffers is returned by the iCustom call? Is it the first buffer declared? The last one?

 

Any help will be appreciated.

it's very simple, you have to get buffer value one by one. Lets say that you have 3 buffers:

iCustom(Symbol(),Timeframe,"CUSOMT INDI NAME",all parameters separated by coma, BUFFER, SHIFT);

so eg if you wish to have values of 3 buffers of current bar you will write :

iCustom(Symbol(),Timeframe,"CUSOMT INDI NAME",all parameters separated by coma, 0, 0);

iCustom(Symbol(),Timeframe,"CUSOMT INDI NAME",all parameters separated by coma, 1, 0);

iCustom(Symbol(),Timeframe,"CUSOMT INDI NAME",all parameters separated by coma, 2, 0);
