Hello friends this is checkmail and have an MA cross indicator which draws arrows on cross, but am missing the lines, can anyone code lines into the indicator.

It should draw lines too along with the arrows.

Here is the code :

#property indicator_chart_window
#property indicator_buffers 2

extern int    SlowMaShift     = 0;
extern int    SlowMaMethod    = MODE_LWMA;
extern int    SlowMaPrice     = PRICE_CLOSE;

checkmail:

can anyone code lines into the indicator.

No slaves here, learn to code or pay someone. Look at the moving averages indicator vs your code. Add two more buffers.
