- What is the buffer values when the line is green vs red? Until you know that, you haven't "make a mistake." You don't know enough to code it.
- You should write a self documenting function instead of calling iCustom
directly, see
Detailed explanation of iCustom -
MQL4 forum
Usually when buffer lines are not visible, the buffer's value is EMPTY_VALUE
So you would check
cmilr > is red
as
if(cmir!=EMPTY_VALUE)

Hi I'm new in Mql4. I'm trying to create an ea based on the choppy market indicator. I've identified the buffers as follows:
double cma=iCustom(NULL, 0, "CMI",60,10,false,3, 1);//smoothed ma
double cmil = iCustom(NULL,0, "CMI", 60,10, false,0,1); //cmi line
double cmilg=iCustom(NULL,0, "CMI", 60,10, false,1,1); // green line
double cmilr=iCustom(NULL,0, "CMI",60,10, false,2,1); // red line
Now i want the ea to buy if like picture below;
to buy:
if cmi line is blue and greater than 60 and green line is green then buy
if( cmil > 60 && cmilg is green && Count.Buy() == 0 )
if the cmi line is blue and greater than 60 and the red line is red is red then sell
else if cmil > 60 && cmilr > is red && Count.Sell() == 0)
I've tried different combination but it doesn't seem to work properly. My problem is how to tell the programme that the colour has turned green or red. Have I made a mistake on buffers?
Please help . Thanks.
