Has anyone ever encountered a situation where you're trying to use icustom() to access indicator buffer values but it is restricted by the programmer somehow (I bought the indicator but got the exe file only and the vendor also stated that they do not provide the ability to access data through iCustom).

But I wanted t incorporate it in my EA but I'm stuck here.

Any walkaround to this problem?

@sktsec the buffer names are same as in the indicator.

It's working fine now with nothing changed, was a glitch in fxdreema itself I guess.

I'm using a custom indicator, but I'm unable to download the exe file-getting this compilation error when trying to download exe file.

I've declared the input/output buffers as shown:

In my custom indicator the first input is actually set as "---------------". Like this:

So I'm not sure if i need to actually declare it in the Input parameters or not, however, i did it but I'm getting that error message.

I tried removing it, still i get the same error message.

Few days back it was working fine but today the indicator got cleared from the list while updating the relative path, and so I'm trying to bring it back all again.

I'm able to download the mq4 file, so I had a look at iCustom() part, this is what its like at the moment:

iCustom(symbol, timeframe, "Indicators/custom_indicator" , (Str)0, buffer, shift);

which I believe is incorrect.

This is what it actually should be I guess (unsure):

iCustom(symbol, timeframe, "Indicators/cutom_indicator" , (int)2, (int)2, (int)2, (int)6, (int)5, (int)3, (int)1, buffer, shift);

I made these changes, it compiles successfully but doesn't work when I pull it on the chart.

Any help on this please!!

@l-andorrà thanks

Which block can I use as "OR" block?

@jstap I tried that and the EA gives me this error message;
"Indicator path or name is invalid. Must be \MQL4\Indicators\Market\IndiName (currently \MQL4\indicators\Market/IndiName)"
From that error message I could see the problem could be with the different slash sign so I tried to change it here on fxdreema indicators section but when I save it, the relative path automatically changes this backward slash to forward slash. And also my indicator works in it's subfolder only. So any solution?

How should I write the relative path if my custom indicator is in the subfolder of the indicators folder? "Market" is the subfolder name;

1. Market\indicator_name
2. Market/indicator_name

1 or 2?

@jstap okay but by default it was set as 1 month which should be 1 in the default value, but here while adding the parameters I wrote 6, so would it affect in anyway? or is everything okay? And are you sure the counting starts from 1 or does it start with 0?

@jstap okay and what if I want to use 4 months of data which is fourth in the drop down list. So should I write "4" here;

@jstap Hey, I wrote the parameters, from the drop down menu I counted there were 6 options (counting from 1) so I wrote like this;

Is everything correct for both the Input Parameters?
