I should add that the custom indicator also runs fine in both live trading and Strategy Tester.

What is your code with iCustom() ?

Hi Alain;
Here it is.
double Zscore_AUD[], Zscore_CAD[], Zscore_CHF[], Zscore_EUR[], Zscore_JPY[], Zscore_GBP[], Zscore_NZD[], Zscore_USD[]; ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_AUD,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_CAD,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_CHF,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_EUR,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_JPY,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_GBP,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_NZD,true); ArraySetAsSeries(Zscore_USD,true); int CCPI_Handle = iCustom( _Symbol, PERIOD_CURRENT, "CustomCurrencyMeter_rev1.0", Inp_CSC_LookBackPeriod, Inp_CSC_StdDevPeriod, false); if(CCPI_Handle == INVALID_HANDLE) { Print("iCustom ERROR!!! Error Code = ",GetLastError()); } CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,0,0,3,Zscore_AUD); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,1,0,3,Zscore_CAD); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,2,0,3,Zscore_CHF); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,3,0,3,Zscore_EUR); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,4,0,3,Zscore_JPY); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,5,0,3,Zscore_GBP); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,6,0,3,Zscore_NZD); CopyBuffer(CCPI_Handle,7,0,3,Zscore_USD); double CCPI_Zscore[8]; CCPI_Zscore[0] = Zscore_AUD[1]; CCPI_Zscore[1] = Zscore_CAD[1]; CCPI_Zscore[2] = Zscore_CHF[1]; CCPI_Zscore[3] = Zscore_EUR[1]; CCPI_Zscore[4] = Zscore_JPY[1]; CCPI_Zscore[5] = Zscore_GBP[1]; CCPI_Zscore[6] = Zscore_NZD[1]; CCPI_Zscore[7] = Zscore_USD[1];
Is there a "CustomCurrencyMeter_rev1.0.ex5" in Indicators folder ?
Recompiled it (do you have source code ?) and try again ?

Yes, the Custom Indicator is in the Indicators folder.
Have recompiled many times. It runs fine in demo trading account. It also runs in Strategy Tester when tested alone.
Only fails when called in EA via iCustom..........

Try to rename it "CustomCurrencyMeter" without a dot in the name.

This is really very strange. Now, when running in Strategy Tester, the EA opens a new Indicator sub-window, on every tick...........
I have created an empty window indicator to avoid any calculation issues. Here it is attached.
The revised iCustom call is as follows:
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+ //Custom Indicator Call double Empty_SubWindow_Buffer[]; ArraySetAsSeries(Empty_SubWindow_Buffer,true); int ESW_Handle = iCustom( _Symbol, PERIOD_CURRENT, "Empty SubWindow"); if(ESW_Handle == INVALID_HANDLE) { Print("iCustom ERROR!!! Error Code = ",GetLastError()); } CopyBuffer(ESW_Handle,0,0,3,Empty_SubWindow_Buffer);The iCustom call is after the OnTick() call.

Hello All;
I have an iCustom call in an EA. It works fine in live mode.
It was working fine in Strategy Tester as well - but no longer does. I have not made any changes to any of my system.
The log in Strategy Tester has the following messages:
I can't find any reference to [532] (had assumed it was an error code since it is int he same format as [4802]. Also I'm pretty sure it is not a line number in either the Expert or the Indicator.
I've been reading some posts here but can not make sense of it. And I also tried
#property tester_indicator "indicator_name.ex5"
to the start of the indicator - again no change.
I know many others have had this problem, but I've not found any clear information on what I'm doing wrong.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Jim
