iCustom?

New comment
 

I am trying to find values of an iCustom indicator at different bars back. Is there anyway to get the values by a bar number without making a seperate iCustom lines with each bar number?

For example if I had the below and wanted to find the values of the 10th, 5th, and current bars, would I have to list six iCustom lines with the appropriate shift?

double macd=iCustom(NULL,0,"MACD True",0,0);
double macd_signal=iCustom(NULL,0,"MACD True",1,0);

 
Nope, you can try using For loops for somethings but for assigning values its not going to make the codes much shorter.
 

something like

#define BARS 3
 
#define SHFT 5
int i,shift;
double macd[BARS],
        
       macd_signal[BARS];
  
 
       for(i=0,shift=0;i<BARS;i++,shift+=SHFT)
    
        {
    
         macd[i]=iCustom(NULL,0,"MACD True",0,shift);
   
         macd_signal[i]=iCustom(NULL,0,"MACD True",1,shift);
    
        }
    
       if(macd[0] > macd_signal[0] &&
    
          macd[1] < macd_signal[1] ... 

or
#define BARS 3
 
#define SIGN 2
#define SHFT 5
int i,j,shift;
  
double macd[BARS,SIGN];
        
       for(i=0,shift=0;i<BARS;i++,shift+=SHFT)
    
        {
   
         for(j=0;j<SIGN;j++)
    
          {
    
           macd[i,j]=iCustom(NULL,0,"MACD True",j,shift);
   
          }
    
        }
       if(macd[0,0] > macd[0,1] &&
    
          macd[1,0] < macd[1,1] ...
