Mc Ginley indicator not working in fxdreema.....why??

[Sizqa]

I would love to test Mc Ginley in fxdreema but I can't get it to work. It is like to program isn't seeing it. Does anyone know why this is? And how it is possible to get it to work? I tried 3 different versions, all doing nothing....

@sizqa hello, could you explain what you tried so far?

[Sizqa]

Yes of course. This is a very basic example of getting a buy signal if price closes above the indicator and a short signal if price closes below the indicator. I tested more indicators this way, but with the Mc Ginley it is not giving any signals.

@sizqa I think your EA's file is corrupted, anyway take a look at this and make a visual backtest

I get 2 yellow arrows for the first 2 candles of the test.

What do you mean my file is corrupted?

@sizqa If you run my shared file you get something like this

I suggest you to open a new project from scratch, don't overwrtite your actual file. Simply delete it

[Sizqa]

Hee,

I made a completely new EA from scratch and build just the condition - draw arrow as you did. Still only getting 2 arrows on the first 2 bars. I see you're testing on M1. Also that is giving no results. I'm really missing something.....guess a really simple thing... So annoying!

@Sizqa I think your indicator have some problems, now it gave me "zero divide". I suggest you to find another similar one.

[Sizqa]

All the 3 different versions are acting the same. Anyone else knows how to fix this?

@sizqa I'm afraid a programmers is needed here. fxDreema is accepting MOST of custom indicators, but not all of them, sadly.
