Automated trading with Custom Indicator

[ersan yurdakul]

I am trying to do automated trading with a custom indicator. However, EA uses the default settings of the indicator that I downloaded from the market. In fact, it would make more sense to use the data of the indicator we uploaded on the chart. Hopefully MT5 will update the software for this.

You need to set your preferred values in the iCustom call from the EA.

Of course it can be more smart calling a .set file rather than specify all variables, specially for indicators with a lot of input variables but as far as I know, at the moment, the only way is what I wrote before.

Mr. Fabio

In EA we can only write the name of the custom indicator. Example is "Market \\ TrendLine Pro Mt5". It is not possible to change its settings with EA. EA values use the values of the indicator in the indicator file. Instead, it should be used as "chart \ TrendLine Pro MT5". I think it is necessary to change the MT5 software for this.

No.

Read documentation of iCustom function.

Example I bought <Deleted> indicator from the market. This is a custom indicator. Is a separate icustom indicator made by changing the values of this?
