I have unchangeable indicators to work with. Their buffers are encoded so it is no way to use iCustom.
But they can signal by alert/pushes/email.
I want to get their signals from for example alert window and use them with my EA.
Is any way to do this via winapi? Or i must parse log files to get it?

What do you mean ? If the indicator has buffers, you can retrieve them with iCustom() even if they aren't showing in the data window.

If the indicator has buffers, just use the iCustom(). There's no other way ...

Not sure what you mean by "encoded" ... There's no multiple ways to code buffers.
