DislikedThere are three ways.
1) copy the "meat" of your indicator to the inside of your ea.
2) make the decision part of your indicator a library that you call
3) use "iCustom" to call the indicator that resides in the experts\indicators folder. This is usually the fastest for a newbie. Check the help section for passing the parameters you need. You can select which indicator line you want the iCustom to pass back to you.Ignored
