unable to read indicator values through buffer

New comment
 

Hi I need an indicator that is able to detect major and minor Swing highs and lows, I found a perfect one but they didn't set the buffer values right so It is not possible to read any values and I would like to be able to read the values to build an EA, anyone has a similar indicator that ouputs the values of the highs and lows?

  1. Why did you post your MT4 question in the MT5 Indicators section instead of the MQL4 section, (bottom of the Root page)?

    Next time, post in the correct place. The moderators will likely move this thread there soon.

  2. “Doesn't work” is meaningless — just like saying the car doesn't work. Doesn't start, won't go in gear, no electrical, missing the key, flat tires — meaningless.

    Always post all relevant code (using Code button) or attach the source file.

  4. Your posted EX4 requires DLL imports. I'm not going to even run that.

Indicators that detect swing high and lows do not fill the buffers as you expect. Please check how zigzag indicator works in terms of buffers.
