Attached is an indicator for two MA cross. Could anyone out there tell me how to read value from this indicator in EA when one MA cross other MA. Say I set MA period 13 and MA 4. If MA 4 crossed up MA 13, i would like EA to know about it and know whether is crossed up or cross down.

Thanks in advance.

You use iCustom and make sure you pass ALL extern variables in the iCustom call . . .

You pass the Extern variables to setup the Indicator in the way you want and then read the relevant Buffer for the candle you need . . .

I don't know anything about this Indicator so can't tell you much more . . .
