i trying to transfer a custom indicator into ea can anyone tell me how to do the following in ea or what does it mean?
i having problem understanding what extmapbuffer1[i-ssp+6] mean and how to translate them in ea
for(i=CountBars-SSP;i>=0;i--) {
smin = SsMin-(SsMax+SsMin)*Kmin/100; smax = SsMax*(SsMax+SsMin)*Kmax/100; ExtMapBuffer1[i-SSP+6]=smax; ExtMapBuffer2[i-SSP-1]=smax; val1 = ExtMapBuffer1[0]; val2 = ExtMapBuffer2[0]; if (val1 > val2) Comment("buy ",val1); if (val1 < val2) Comment("sell ",val2);

extmapbuffer1[i-ssp+6] is one value (pe. 1.2323) of your custom indicator but shifted [i-ssp+6], is not the actual i suppose.
use iCustom function to call the extmapbuffer1 value.
