Hi all ,
I'm new in trading and would like to know the buffer numbers for the traders dynamic index fo
red line
yellow line
green line
upper VB line
lower vb line
for example what is xx value below for the red line?
double red_line = iCustom(NULL,0,"TradersDynamicIndex",13,PRICE_CLOSE,34,1.6185,2,0,7,0,xx,1);
below is part of the tdi code:

- You should write a self documenting function instead of calling iCustom directly, see Detailed explanation of iCustom - MQL4 forum
- #property indicator_color6 clrRedYou should have already figured out that the red line is buffer index five.
#property indicator_label6 "Trade Signal Line"
#property indicator_type6 DRAW_LINE - Use SRC. Why didn't you edit your original post as requested?
