Combining 4 indicators to 1

[[Deleted]]

Hello experts.

I have 4 indicators that I would like to combine them all to 1 indicator with auto reading “meaning that it shows arrows when all 4 indicators matches, what would be the best way to accomplish this? Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike K.

[okwh]

you can. but limited to 8 indicators' buffers in one file

DxdCn,

Thanks, do you have the steps to do such a thing?

[okwh]

same like writing one indicator.

you can change each original contents inside start() to a separte functions in new file,

and then call them inside new start().

note: do not confilt them's varibles' name and buffers' name.

Ok thanks, one more question please, I have created an EA for Parabolic "SAR" but when I run it through strategy tester, nothing gets executed, what I'm doing wrong, here is the EA code:
