Custom Indicator
-
Hi,
I have sent email to fxdreema support yesterday 31st Oct 2016, but while waiting for a reply I am posting this here if anybody else encounter the same problem and maybe have found a way to work around it.
I plan to use a custom indicator as part of my EA decision process. I noticed the decision was made incorrectly (for eg an event should only take place when indicator output is > 0, but the result is not following the rules in some case) and started to check the indicator output that my EA refers from the buffer output against what is shown on the MT4 indicator plot. I use the Write to File which pulls all individual buffer output to CSV file on a specific time frame and duration. Then I compare the CSV file against the indicator plot on the same time frame and duration and the result are totally different.
Even when an event was triggered when the indicator output > 0, the value that is triggering the event is not the same between the indicator buffer output and the indicator result on the plot.
I want to share the pictures, indicators and CSV files that I mentioned above but I am not able to upload any file to this forum board. So I share this link https://fxdreema.com/shared/ysoQMbBAb

I don't have your indicator. What are the values in both cases, what is different between them?

please check your support@fxdreema.com mailbox.
i have used the trace option and i can confirm they are the same as on the csv. my problem is that the buffer output on csv or trace are not the same as when the value when i plotted the indicator on mt4. the indicator on mt4 sometimes goes > 1 or < -1 but the output from trace and csv files all between <1 and > -1. trust me that when the indicator is showing a value, the trace and csv is showing different number regardless of positive/negative and hence colors. i also use index 1 to get indicator value to make to get the candle close indicator value because current will always change.
please use the fisher indicator on usdjpy pair and same date and time span and see yourself the result if say they are the same.
