Am just starting to learn MQL

I have this indicator with the following buffers

How to i create OP Buy on Blue bar and OP_Sell on Red Bar

//---- buffersdouble Buffer1[];

double Buffer2[];

double Buffer3[];

double Buffer4[];

double trend[];

string indicatorFileName;

bool returnBars;

int timeFrame;

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

//| Custom indicator initialization function |

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

int init()

{

IndicatorBuffers(5);

SetIndexBuffer(0,Buffer1); SetIndexStyle(0,DRAW_HISTOGRAM); SetIndexLabel(0,"Blue Bar");

SetIndexBuffer(1,Buffer2); SetIndexStyle(1,DRAW_HISTOGRAM); SetIndexLabel(1,"Red Bar");

SetIndexBuffer(2,Buffer3); SetIndexStyle(2,DRAW_ARROW); SetIndexArrow(2,WingDings_Symbol); SetIndexLabel(2,"Blue Dot");

SetIndexBuffer(3,Buffer4); SetIndexStyle(3,DRAW_ARROW); SetIndexArrow(3,WingDings_Symbol); SetIndexLabel(3,"Red Dot");

SetIndexBuffer(4,trend);

indicatorFileName = WindowExpertName();

returnBars = TimeFrame == "returnBars"; if (returnBars) return(0);

timeFrame = stringToTimeFrame(TimeFrame);

//----

return(0);

Thank you

a lot explained there

Thanks Mladen , i understand all those.

I have not found much information about iCustom.

I would EA to place buy on Blue bar and Sell on Red bar

This is what i have managed so far...

extern string TimeFrame = "15";extern bool Extremes = true;

extern int WingDings_Symbol = 271;

extern bool ArrowsOnFirstBar = true;

extern string LM="---------------- Lot Management";

extern double Lots=0.1;

extern bool MM=false; //money management

extern double Risk=10; //risk in percentage

extern string TSTB="---------------- TP SL TS BE";

bool RealSL_Enabled=false;

int RealSL=5; //stop loss under 15 pîps

bool RealTP_Enabled=false;

int RealTP=10; //take profit under 10 pîps

extern int SL=0; //stop loss

extern int TP=0; //take profit

extern int TS=0; //trailing stop

int TS_Step=1; //trailing step

extern int BE=0; //breakeven

extern string EXT="---------------- Extras";

extern bool Reverse=false;

extern bool Add_Positions=false; //positions cumulated

extern int MaxOrders=100; //maximum number of orders

extern int Magic=0;

int Slip=3;static int TL=0;double MML=0;

// expert start function

int init(){int j=0,limit=1;double BV=0,SV=0;BV=0;SV=0;double mAmpSignalsBUY,mAmpSignalsSELL ;

if(CntO(OP_BUY,Magic)>0)TL=1;if(CntO(OP_SELL,Magic)>0)TL=-1;for(int i=1;i<=limit;i++){

mAmpSignalsBUY = iCustom(Symbol(), 0, "AmpSignals", TimeFrame, Extremes, WingDings_Symbol, ArrowsOnFirstBar,0,0);

mAmpSignalsSELL = iCustom(Symbol(), 0, "AmpSignals", TimeFrame, Extremes, WingDings_Symbol, ArrowsOnFirstBar,1,0);

if(mAmpSignalsBUY >0&&mAmpSignalsSELL<EMPTY_VALUE){if(Reverse)SV=1;else BV=1;break;}

if(mAmpSignalsSELL>0&&mAmpSignalsBUY <EMPTY_VALUE){if(Reverse)BV=1;else SV=1;break;}}

Its only opening one order

Custom indicator name must newbie help Please fix this indicator

A lot information on how you can use iCustom() you can find here : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/173108

Why are toy posting completely useless code (that way nobody can help you)?

From that code it is impossible to see what is happening. If you cannot post the whole code, I am afraid that nobody can help you based on only selected lines of code since those lines show nothing relevant

ExtMapBuffer5[x] = (High[H2]); Hull MA Distribute slow indicator calculation
