Assign imported indicator value into variable

Hello,
i'm trying to create my own EA and I can't figure out one thing.

I'm importing some indicator from ex4 file, it consist price value

#import "myindicator.ex4"

Then i'm creating a variable:

double myindicatorvalue;

The question is: HOW to set current myindicator value into that variable??

myindicatorvalue = <value from myindicator indicator>

How to do that in a proper way?

Thanks in advance

*assuming that you know what "import" is*

it must be at-least a function inside your "myindicator.ex4" that will return a value.

for example, you have function returnPrice() in myindicator.ex4

then simply put Happy Trading & Have Some Nice Profits!

that's not how you retrieve an indicator's value.

Go read up on iCustom

iCustom - that's all what i needed, thank you.

Hello oktar,



I found the template for the Rainbow. That was an attempt many years ago with special MA points where the highest exponential MA was 420. An acquaintance of mine has sworn on the Rainbow. However, this presentation did not help me. You have to copy the template into your MT4 folder "Template" and call it afterwards. If you call the indicator on your chart, you can delete or add a MA. Then you save the template and can call it up again at any time. There is a blog about the Rainbow, the traders there have more expirience about it.

I hope that I could help you a bit.

best regards
