Hi!

I have a custom indicator with a mq4 code as well. I want to use that indicator in my EA. The indicator run in its own window (not the main price window, but an indicator window, incase its important). How can I use the indicator in my EA?

Thanks in Advance!
If it floats, flies, or f%^ks, rent it, it's cheaper.

double value = iCustom(NULL, 0, "Indicator Name Goes Here", Indicator Parameters goes here, Indicator buffer index, shift)

Compare against Indicator BufferEmptyValue

Thank you both for your reply. That iCustom looked a bit daunting , so I just copied the 15-20 lines of code from the indi and added it as a function to my EA. Works fine
