Get value from indicator's arrows to an EA..
hi, i have an indicator that shows arrows when on uptrend and downtrend. I tried to get the values of the arrows using "icustom"....but i couldn't succeed... how do i get to use the value of these in my EA?
- Using ex4 indicator in Expert Advisor
- To all coders
- Indicators: Two iMA Formula
There are no mind readers here. Do you really expect an answer when you don't specify the indicator, nor post your code?
If the indicator uses buffers for the arrows, use iCustom(). If the indicator creates objects, use the object functions to find a arrow and get it's position.

sorry i didnt post the code, i have posted now ..i used icustom as below...but didnt work..

kmnatarajan:
You should use 0 for the timeframe, not NULL . . . "timeframe - Timeframe. It can be any of Timeframe enumeration values. 0 means the current chart timeframe."
sorry i didnt post the code, i have posted now ..i used icustom as below...but didnt work..
