Indicator with message
-
I have uploaded one indicator wich is giving a message when to trade.
There are 2 buffers (0 and 1) and I thought they are the ones to use, so I did set the condition to check if buffer 0 > 0 for a buy and if buffer 1 > 0 for a sell, but it doesn't seem to work.
How are these messages usually treated? And how do I make them work when they are made to give a text message but I want them to be used in my EA. -
If buffers does not work for the current candle, try with Candle ID of 1, 2 or 3. In most cases indicators who draw arrows (well, they are also some kind of messages), this is the case, because those arrows actually appear on some of the previous candles.

Thank you. That was it. It was using Candle 1.
Is there somewhere in the manual where things like this can be found so I don't have to bother you all the time.

Actually yes, but I guess this particular information is not very visible. It's here, the very last words at the bottom: https://fxdreema.com/help/-/you%20shoul ... indicators
But I also recommended this "Indicator tester" block multiple times, and this block can tell you what the buffer values are in realtime. And if you test it in Visual mode" you will also be able to see where and when the arrows appear. Sometimes they also disappear or reappear somewhere else.
