Problems Converting an Indicator to EA

 

Good day,

I'm trying to convert the Alligator Indicator to an EA or at least remove the indicator specific properties. The reason I am doing this is because I need the data that the alligator calculates, but I want to display it using objects to get around the limit of 8 buffers. So far, I have it calculating the data without the need of SetIndexShift but I noticed the alligator lines only graph to the current time. I'm looking to help either converting the indicator to not use indicator specific calls or at least get the red dot to graph at the end of the MA line.


Thanks.

Have you tried iCustom? It gives you all the values you need from an indicator without you having to convert the actual indicator or rewrite it as an EA.
