There is a very good article: Transferring an Indicator Code into an Expert Advisor Code. Indicator Structure - MQL4 Articles

but you probably don't need to do that, use iCustom() . . but you may not even need to do that, have you looked at the Technical Indicator functions ?

 

thanks RaptorUK. Hope its work....

Don't try do that. There are no buffers, no IndicatorCounted() or prev_calculated. No way to know if older bars have changed or been added (history update.)
Just get the value(s) of the indicator(s) into the EA (using iCustom) and do what you want with it.
You should encapsulate your iCustom calls to make your code self-documenting.
