i have tried using iCustom, but it return a constant big weird integer!

PLEASE HELP

thanks

maybe u do below for code in ur EA

int FasterEMA=4;               //indicator extern.1 default preset
int SlowerEMA=8;               //indicator extern.2 default preset
bool SoundON=true;             //indicator extern.3 default preset
//
#define UP 0
#define DN 1
int indicatorBufferIndex;      //can be 0/CrossUp[] or 1/CrossDown in iCustom()
int barShift=0;                //can be any value between 0..Bars-1 in iCustom()
double crossU,crossD;          //hold results call iCustom()
//
//here examples wat u maybe do - u must give value barShift wat u like, 0 only give latest index buffer value
//
indicatorBufferIndex = UP;
crossU = iCustom(NULL,0,"EMA-Crossover_Signal",FasterEMA,SlowerEMA,SoundON,indicatorBufferIndex,barShift);
//
indicatorBufferIndex = DN;
crossD = iCustom(NULL,0,"EMA-Crossover_Signal",FasterEMA,SlowerEMA,SoundON,indicatorBufferIndex,barShift);
//
//
//iCustom() HELP:
//Calculates the specified custom indicator and returns its value.
//The custom indicator must be compiled (*.EX4 file) and be in the terminal_directory\experts\indicators directory. 
//
//u indicatorBufferIndex control wat line bufr u take data from and barShift control data element [..]
//play with Print() see wat u get
