What folder did you put your Indicator into ? experts/indicators/ ?
 

It is in the root directory

r

CurrencyChart is an indicator

you can see it by the lines

#property indicator_separate_window
#property indicator_buffers 1
#property indicator_color1 Green

You did put your Indicator into ? experts/

because it listed in same directory as your MACD Sample

you had to put your Indicator into experts/indicators/

(indicators is a subdirectory of experts)

Experts (EAs) go in /experts/ Indicators go in /experts/indicators/ Script go in /experts/scripts/

Experts (EAs) go in TERMINAL/experts/ Indicators go in TERMINAL/experts/indicators/ Script go in TERMINAL/experts/scripts/
Nothing in the root "C:\", nothing in the installation directory (TERMINAL)
