How to use this ex4?

[Alex81]

Hi,
anybody able to use this ex4 indicator?
I create all parameters and buffers, but using Trace it doesn't create lines.

This is how I did:

I put this in my indicators, don't think it has buffers, couldn't find the price in object list even though it's on screen.

It has 4 buffers indeed:

By the way, input "Market Zone Period" is Int, not String. Or it should use a ENUM_TIMEFRAME?
Did you succeeded in making it works?

[jstap]

Those buffers are probably not the ones used in FX, to use these custom code with icustom() is likely needed.

[Alex81]

@jstap what do you mean exactly?

[jstap]

@alex81 Sometimes the buffers in the data window are the same as the ones in FXDreema indicator blocks but often not, depends on the coding. Code like this:

BUY=(iCustom(NULL,0,"The Fall MT4",50,1,1));

BUY being a variable in FX, NULL means 0(I think), "The Fall MT4" is the name of the indicator, 50,1,1 is a reference to the inputs and the data window, needs to be in the correct order. it has been a wile but to work out exactly how to use your indicator you'll have to search and test, the code goes into a custom mql4 block.

If you struggle to work it out just ask and I'll help but a bit busy until tomorrow.

@alex81 Your right about int not string, it compiled for me, make it int and count down the input list to get the correct number.

This is just to show you what the icustom() does link

@jstap
Yes please, I find difficult to understand the process.
You are saying that buffers visible on MT4 windows could not be the same used by FX, but how do I create custom MQL bolck? Trial and error, ok, but starting from where?

@alex81 This link will show how to do it on a different indicator.
