Again, why is there need for MQL? Do you understand how to program in MQL? I guess not. You can call the indicator in the compiled version, so you don't need the sources to use them in your own EAs.
It's a matter of minutes to build a simple EA on this rules. For the indicator I posted earlier it took around 10 minutes to build it. It's more the missing rules about the Trademanagement without you cannt turn a strategy into a system
as mentioned it would be not that difficult but for an system is more needed than entry signals. If all things got together that are needed for proper Trademanagement and I have some time (currently I'm working on some other projects which are more urgent for me) i give it a try.
Need .mq4 source code for both "Bressert Scalper Improved" and "MA Histogram" in order to get anywhere with this thread. Neither indicator populates the Data Window with needed data. Cannot write an EA with the material provided. Turn the .mq4 code over for re-write and you might get somewhere.
Just read your post. Cannot call these indicators from the compiled version because they do not populate the indicator registers -- see the Data window -- there is nothing there. The indicators must be modified, or the indicator logic must be programmed into the EA (more efficient this way) And, yes, I understand how to program MQL.

Guys i saw some of the trades where not all the signals thought by the OP were filled but trades were taken anyway like price didn't go between the 2 bands the signal was blue but a sell was undertaken because price was coming down from above the top band but the MA histrogram was showing blue instead of pink.

These indicators can be used, i did it in the indicator i provided in this thread. You don't need them as sourcecode. That's why the iCustom call ws introduced. I don't want offend you but when those indicators don't write buffers, how will MT4 be able to show the data? That the buffer is not counted and therefore not in the datawindow has nothing to do with the ability to call it over iCustom.
To show you the proof, try this out for a given bar i: maHistLong = iCustom(NULL, 0,"::Indicators\\FxGlow MA Histogram.ex4", 0, i); maHistShort = iCustom(NULL, 0,"::Indicators\\FxGlow MA Histogram.ex4", 1, i); dssLong = iCustom(NULL, 0,"::Indicators\\Bressert Scalper Improved.ex4", 1, i); dssShort = iCustom(NULL, 0,"::Indicators\\Bressert Scalper Improved.ex4", 2, i); bandUpper = iCustom(NULL, 0,"::Indicators\\FxGlow Target Bands.ex4", 1, i); bandMA = iCustom(NULL, 0,"::Indicators\\FxGlow...

That's going to be a very resource heavy EA. Using 5 icustoms that each call on an icustom will cause your machine to bog down quite a bit. I may not be the world's greatest coder, but I have coded enough indis and ea to know to ask for source code. You also said those indis don't use\write buffers? As far as I can see they all do?

The point of an EA at this stage is to show whether or not the method is profitable and stable during backtests, we can worry about optimization when there is a reason for it. Hell if the method truly works and works well, I would invest the time to try to reverse-engineer some of the indicators if needed.
@JensItzig your indicator blocks the terminal for me (I did enable dll), using the original set of indicators works for me.

Then the ea can use the indicators from post #1, no problem. I always have dll-calls on because most of my indies and eas using dll to compute more difficult stuff, so i didn't test this behaviour.

Of course is this not the way to build the best ea. But there are reasons why people only give away the ex4 instead of the whole mq4.
I don't want to highjack the thread with discussion about the proof of concept to build this ea. So i shut down any dicussion about it and promise my next post will be a simple ea for this strategy.
As expected without real trademanagement it's a looser EA, but maybe one of the coders here can use some stuff from it to turn it into a winner.
It shows that the EA is not so slow as XxLessoxX expected with the iCustom calls. I removed the Target Bands with the MT4 internal iATR and iMA. The only difference is here that the Target Bands calculates only 4digt instead of 5digit. The call of the 2 remaining indicators are done as less as possible.

Sorry, but it's not possible to use the EA on the chart and by back test!
