Initialize Custom Indicator
-
Hi, I have a custom indicator.ex4 that displays objects on the chart instead of using a buffer. I have uploaded it, added all inputs but since I'm querying for objects on the chart the indicator itself doesn't seem to appear. So is there a way of making sure that the custom indicator is initialized when a user drops the EA on their chart? Maybe on the EA's "on Init" tab/method.

@bruno-3 Hi. you should work with buffer. if your indicator using a buffer for each painting, you can be using that.
make sure your indicator path is correct -
The indicator doesn't use buffers for its objects that it draws on the chart.

If ot is drawing object you can alway find them by using a 'For each object' block. Just look at the name of each object and seach for them to identify them.

I can find the objects when I test, that is after I manually add the custom indicator to my chart while it's testing. The issue I have is, my custom indicator doesn't appear or isn't added when I run my EA......i have to manually add the indicator so that the EA can start working.

That it will never be identified by the EA. You need to integrate the custom indicator within the EA so that objects can be searched for and identified. Otherwise you will not be able to use it.
