ZigZag EA

New comment
 

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone has seen an uncompiled ea that swing trades using the ZigZag custom indicator?

I am aware that this indicator looks backward and used alone would not be sufficient in itself. I am having difficulty capturing a single value that corresponds to each graphic pointer drawn on a chart. I would like the calculation to depend on the open price if possible, since it never changes.

Thanks!

Hi All,

I need urgent help. I want to use the standard Zigzag indicator and convert it to a EA that uses a multiplier. Can anyone out there assist me please.

              Don't flag your question as “ Urgent ” , even if it is for you.

  2. Don't try to 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 EA/indicator (using iCustom) and do what you want with it.

    You should encapsulate your iCustom calls to make your code self-documenting.

    Help you with what? You haven't stated a problem, you stated a want. You have only four choices:

    1. Search for it. Do you expect us to do your research for you?

    2. Beg at:

    3. MT4: Learn to code it.
      MT5: Begin learning to code it.
      If you don't learn MQL4/5, there is no common language for us to communicate. If we tell you what you need, you can't code it. If we give you the code, you don't know how to integrate it into your code.

    4. or pay (Freelance) someone to code it.

    We're not going to code it for you (although it could happen if you are lucky or the problem is interesting.) We are willing to help you when you post your attempt (using CODE button) and state the nature of your problem.
