How to get the value of multiple time frame of an indicator calculating with iMAOnArray
Hello WHRoeder ;
thank you so much, it makes easy my work, I search info about iCustom and it s very helpful .
I Would like to create objects basing on this indicator and I suppose that I can proces like this jus a simple code to exmplain
// for example in my indicator personnal I write that where there is ExtMapBuffer2 SetIndexStyle(1,DRAW_LINE); SetIndexBuffer(1,ExtMapBuffer2); // in the new code indicator we can do // for example for M5 double M5 = iCustom(NULL,5, "My_indicator",1,0);// here line index 1 review SetIndexBuffer
if it is like this, my question is how to attach that (M5) to an object for example a Text via createObject because we need only Price and data Time on the parameters for ??
thanks

After creating the object, try . .
ObjectSetText("name", DoubleToStr(M5,Digits), 12 );
Hello ;
my real problem is the way to create a Text without know the value of parameters . I mean for example when we create a Horizontal line for example we know the coordinate
for(int i = 0; i < obj_total; i++) { name = ObjectName(i); if(ObjectType(name) == OBJ_RECTANGLE) { valeur1 = ObjectGet(name,OBJPROP_PRICE1); temps1 = ObjectGet(name,OBJPROP_TIME1); // line 1 if(!ObjectCreate("ligne1",OBJ_HLINE,0,temps1,valeur1)) { Print("error: can't create text_object! code #",GetLastError()); return(0); } else { ObjectCreate("ligne1label", OBJ_TEXT, 0, Time[0], ObjectGet("ligne1", OBJPROP_PRICE1) ); ObjectSetText("ligne1label", " L1 ", 8, "Arial", Red); } }
here we know the value of valeur1, and temps1 because we draw the rectangle and so this code verify if there 's a rectangle . So we can create a Text as an object . So we procede like this but before we must create the object Text
ObjectSetText("MM5",DoubleToStr(M5,Digits), 10, "Times New Roman", Green);but how we can create the text
if(!ObjectCreate("TextM5", OBJ_TEXT, 0, Time[0],???))
thanks
but how we can create the text
thanks
I can't tell you where you want to place the text . . . where do you want to place the text ?
Maybe . .
if(!ObjectCreate("TextM5", OBJ_TEXT, 0, Time[0], M5 ))
hello ;
I would like to place the text here (the blue rectangle)
I change the correct because I make mistake ; according the custom indicator We need 2 buffers for on time
here is the code

but the result is : nothing in main window but the object (Text ) is there with the value
I just do for the M5
hello ;
I would like to place the text here (the blue rectangle)
you mean like that :
if(!ObjectCreate("TextM5", OBJ_TEXT, 0, Time[0],WindowPriceMin()+0.05*(WindowPriceMax()-WindowPriceMin())))
the code
int start() { // we get the value of custom indicator double MM5 , MM5bis ; string name ; color Textcolor ; double valueM5 ; int counted_bars=IndicatorCounted(); // int obj_total = ObjectsTotal(); //---- // we try to get the value of custom indicator // setindexbuffer 0 and 1 MM5 = iCustom(NULL,5,"histogramtrend",0,0); // the value ExtMapBuffer1 of histogramtrend MM5bis = iCustom(NULL,15,"histogramtrend",1,0); // the moving average ExtMapBuffer2 of histogramtrend // we create an object Text // we make the difference and we show this value valueM5 = MM5-MM5bis; // here we create the Text for the M5 if(!ObjectCreate("TextM5", OBJ_TEXT, 0, Time[0],WindowPriceMin()+0.05*(WindowPriceMax()-WindowPriceMin()))) { Print("error: can't create label_object! code #",GetLastError()); return(0); } else // we change the value and the position { ObjectSetText("TextM5", DoubleToStr(valueM5,Digits), 12 ); // we change the position ObjectSetText("TextM5", OBJPROP_XDISTANCE,200); ObjectSetText("TextM5", OBJPROP_YDISTANCE,100); // we change the color if(valueM5<0) Textcolor=Red; else if (valueM5>0) Textcolor=Green; else Textcolor=White; ObjectSet("TextM5", OBJPROP_COLOR, Textcolor ); } //---- return(0); } //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
I try but nothing change
and I remark nothing strange : I calculate the difference between of the indicator and his MM7 so if they are crossed it make the value NULL .
in histogramtrend.mq4
for(i=0;i<limit;i++) { // histogram ExtMapBuffer2[i] = ExtMapBuffer4[i] - ExtMapBuffer5[i]; } // the MM of ExtMapBuffer2 for(i=0;i<limit;i++) { // ligne ExtMapBuffer1[i] = iMAOnArray(ExtMapBuffer2,0,period2,0,MODE_LWMA,i); // 0 ; }
so after we would compare ExtMapBuffer2 (the indicator) and his ExtMapBuffer1 (his MM7)
in the new custom indicator using object
// we try to get the value of custom indicator // setindexbuffer 0 and 1 MM5 = iCustom(NULL,5,"histogramtrend",0,0); // the value ExtMapBuffer2 of histogramtrend MM5bis = iCustom(NULL,15,"histogramtrend",1,0); // the moving average ExtMapBuffer1 of histogramtrend valueM5 = MM5bis-MM5;
the result is different when the 2 lines of histogramtrend are crossed valueM5 is different of 0 .
so I create an indicator in order to verify the difference between those 2 buffer :
for(i=0;i<limit;i++) { // histogram ExtMapBuffer2[i] = ExtMapBuffer4[i] - ExtMapBuffer5[i]; } for(i=0;i<limit;i++) { // ligne ExtMapBuffer1[i] = iMAOnArray(ExtMapBuffer2,0,period2,0,MODE_LWMA,i); // 0 ; } for(i=0;i<limit;i++) { ExtMapBuffer6[i] = ExtMapBuffer2[i]-ExtMapBuffer1[i]; }
here I show just ExtMapBuffer6[i]
as you can see : the histogramtrend (top) and the other indicator (to verify) in down and when the ExtMapBuffer2[i] (Black line) cross ExtMapBuffer1[i]
the indicator ExtMapBuffer6[i] is different of 0 (down indicator )
I don't know what's wrong with this and also with the object
excuse me for the message there is something wrong and I think the real problem
the real problem is here
// we try to get the value of custom indicator // setindexbuffer 0 and 1 MM5 = iCustom(NULL,5,"histogramtrend",0,0); // the value ExtMapBuffer2 of histogramtrend MM5bis = iCustom(NULL,15,"histogramtrend",1,0); // the moving average ExtMapBuffer1 of histogramtrend valueM5 = MM5bis-MM5;
and in MM15bis remark that I write 15 instead of 5
so the right code is
MM5bis = iCustom(NULL,5,"histogramtrend",1,0);
so when I compile the code it works as you can see
it works and We want just to make it at the appropriate position and put the label M5
I try to put the all time
when I take the function like this
if(!ObjectCreate("TextM5", OBJ_TEXT, 0, Time[0],WindowPriceMin()+0.05*(WindowPriceMax()-WindowPriceMin())))
it shows this value 0.00002 but if you try to calculate the real differnence of the 2 trends the estimate value is probably wrong
finally I would like to use comment() as a function but I don't know how to change the color of the value
Comment("value5 - ",valueM5,"\n", "value15 -",valueM15);

Hello ;
you know when we use the function iMA( string symbol, int timeframe, int period, int ma_shift, int ma_method, int applied_price, int shift), there is way to know the value of all time frame, but in applied price, we must use they are constants .
but I would like to show the trend of this indicator . I simplify the code . for example :
here I want just to get and show in the same chart the value of ExtMapBuffer2[i] for all multiple Time frame (M1-M5-M15....)
thanks
