Get Signals form bought indicator as variable to my EA

[mpantogi]

Hello,

I am new to mql4 and i start to make my own EA using condition which i take from some free indicators and some bought indicators from the market.

I was so disappointing today ,when the developer of an indicator(pattern detection) tells me that is a trading system and it is not have iCustom feature on that.

This indicator alert some pattern signals,for example Triangle,Double Bottom.

I am confused.Ι am interested only for the output of the indicator,not the calculation which is made.

For Example can in my EA do: if var=Triangle do that or if var=Double Bottom do that?

Please Help.

You can only read with the indicator outputs.

1. Buffers See Detailed explanation of iCustom - MQL4 and MetaTrader 4 - MQL4 programming forum
2. Objects: Fixed names ObjectGet, variable names: ObjectsTotal

You will have to figure out what output corresponds to what signal.
