Whenever I try adding your ma_angle indicator to my chart, it temporarily freezes my terminal. Once it is functional again, there is nothing drawn on the chart though. Therefore, I am suspecting the indicator might be faulty. Your logic seems fine by calling the indicator buffer values. I normally like to add Symbol() and NULL for the first two parameters though but I guess it's more of personal preference. Certainly not the cause for the issue here. varMA = iCustom(Symbol(),NULL,"ma_angle",10,3,AliceBlue,21,0,0,0,0); value2 = iCustom(Symbol(),NULL,"ma_angle",10,3,AliceBlue,21,0,0,1,0);...

for a simple application such as yours, you could try sending your angle to a global variable (GlobalVariableSet) and then reading this variable using GlobalVariableGet

      if(value>90)
        value = value-360;
      GlobalVariableSet( name, value);
        Print(name);

Slight mod which may help? Use: iCustom(NULL, 0, "Angle", 10, 3, clrBlue, 21, 0, 0, 1, 0) {file}
