How to assign output buffers from custom indicators?
-
I am trying to obtain signals from a custom sentiment indicator, I can't seem to find the tutorial on how to use output buffers, as the link is dead. (So are the images) Is there anyone here that could help me with this?

@bluekangaroo14 This is not a trivial task, the indicator probably doesn't have buffers, may have the data window buffers but these are unlikely to obtain the information you need, if it has you can get this information fron iCustom code, if you look in the terminal object list you will see what information is stored there, you can use this info if relevent but will take a lot of work.

@bluekangaroo14 As jstap says the most important part is identifying the buffers. On the other hane, what info is the indicator providing? Are they visual coloured lines or objects? If so you need to check if it repaints, because if it does, you should not use it no matter how good it looks.
