Would one be able to use this during a single backtest to store data of indicators NOT used in a strategy?

So, while running a backtest of a certain strategy, I'd like to collect values of e.g. BollingerBand to analyze in Excel whether losing periods were during certain BB values... And use the evidence to add a BB indicator (filter) to the strategy or not...

Thank you Miro!! Much appreciated.
In 2 weeks time I will continue this project. Reading what you wrote, I think I will get quite far with your explanation.
From my understanding, I could even use some MQ4 code from my indicator and put it straight into FXDreema....
I'll have to do some trial-and-error testing

Thanks again!!
I will uphold my end of the bargain, and pay it forward

@l-andorrà

Thank you for the heads up. It sure is appreciated.

I saw that thread before.
Since the indicator plots like 100 of such lines (over a very big price range), it seems it will be a crazy huge task to fetch all lines. However, now thinking of it, I might be able to let the indicator plot only lines in a narrow price range, and hence require less lines to be 'fetched'.

But here's where I am expecting problems:
The indicator that draws the lines draws, let's say 5 specific lines in the nearest 400 pip range, with each line its own name, BUT the indicator does the exact same thing for the next upper and lower 400 pip price ranges, so they end up having the same names for the lines. Than how does FXdreema know how to fetch the correct (nearest) line?
This is why my question was specifically on finding the NEAREST lines (from the indicator) above and below current price.

Another, not so ideal solution could be to use parts of the indicator code to store values into the EA for the nearest X number of lines, and use those. Still, I believe there should be a way to find the nearest line above (and below) current price.

Another option is:
I am missing the point of the thread you suggested

Hi ladies and gentlemen,

I have a question.
I want to use a custom indicator that draws multiple horizontal lines at different levels.
See picture below for example. (the 1 pink vertical line I drew myself, such that further on in this post we can assume that currently price is at that vertical line)

The questions:

I want the EA (to be built in FXDreema) to find the nearest horizontal line (above current price), and also find the nearest horizontal line (below current price).
(Note that the lines have their own codename or something like that)

I want the EA (to be built) to find NOT the horizontal line above current price, but 1 extra level above that. So basically, I want the EA to find the 2nd horizontal line above current price level.
(and with some other part of the code I want to find the 3rd horizontal line above current price level).

3. When the lines under #1 and #2 are found, I need to store them somewhere in FXDreema, to also help find the associated price levels of those horizontal lines (and store those as well).

=============================================================================
I will donate a symbolic 20 USD to a charity as means of paying forward the good karma, in return for good help, if any.

Sure, I get that. But what happens to access to the software? That is my main concern.
Will we need to start to learn another 3rd party software? I hope not.

A couple of days ago some 3rd part EA seller passed away and his clients could NOT get the service they were promised. God forbid, but what happens to FXDreema if anything bad happens to the owner? Is there a backup plan?
Will we lose everything?
