Confusion with Icustom and Indi

[Louis Stoltz]

Hi

I have an EA that Im testing on the strategy tester and its very confusing how Strategy tester works.
ao1 = iCustom(Symbol(),PERIOD_H1,"AnyIndi",0,0);
See Im setting the PERIOD_H1
The funny thing is it only make profit when I attach it to M15 on the Strategy tester, not on M1 or any other.
Is there something I need to know about this strategy tester? Doesn't make sense.

I just Reinstalled MetaTrader 4 and installed a new Alpari Databank and it's giving me the correct numbers now.
Im still wondering why it would do that?

Thats a great article.

I downloaded the ExpertZigZag that draws blue arrows. I tried adding a second indicator and copied your code to make a orange arrow.

After a few seconds the blue starts eating up the orange arrow. Does anybody know how to make them stick?
