Can anyone advise how to make input parameters by iCustom?
Normally it is necessary to write everything in order including "In_Ex" and "Alerts_Ex".
double indicator = iCustom(NULL,0,"indicator name",In_Ex,Amplitude,Alerts_Ex,AlertCaption,DisplayAlerts,EmailAlerts,PushAlerts,SoundAlerts,SoundFile,0,1);
However, you can omit all if you use the default setting.
double indicator = iCustom(NULL,0,"indicator name",0,1);
If you only want to change Amplitude, you have to add "In_Ex" and "Amplitude".
double indicator = iCustom(NULL,0,"indicator name",In_Ex,Amplitude,0,1);

Thank you for your adivice.
If I want to change only Amplitude, how can I set value for amplitude?
For example, if I want to make value =1000,
double Amplitude=1000; double indicator = iCustom(NULL,0,"indicator name",In_Ex,Amplitude,0,1);
It is not working. How should I fix?

Is this correct?
double indicator = iCustom(NULL,0,"indicator name",0,"Alert name",false,false,false,false,"alert.wav",0,1);
it`s quie simple.
first step: place "indicator name" in clean chart
second: save chart template
third: open template in appropriate text editor and search "indicator name".
You found all indicator arguments for iCustom with true order and values
Specify null as a value of "In_Ex", because it's a string variable that you do not need to input.
Now I understand that I can omit what I don't to need to input. I was trying to find the solution for long time, so now I am so happy. Thank you so much!

Hi, what a great idea to know parameters in template file!
I have never known that I can read template files as a text.
Thank you so much for teaching me a wonderful idea!

Sorry for my repeat question.
If I only want to "Push Alets" OFF,
Is this correct? There may be undeclared identifier.
double indicator = iCustom(NULL,0,"indicator name",PushAlerts,false,0,1);

No, you do not seem to understand yet.
1. In_Ex ----Indicator Settings
2. Amplitude 0
3. Alerts_Ex ----Alerts
4. AlertCaption My Alert Name
5. DisplayAlerts false
6. EmailAlerts false
7. PushAlerts false //<--- target
8. SoundAlerts false
9. SoundFile alert.wav
To change only the above "PushAlerts" setting from "false" to "true".
1. You must write all items from 1 to 7 in order.
2. You may omit 8 and 9.
3. From 1 to 6, you can write the default values as they are. However, you can write "" (null) to 1 and 3.
4. You must write "true" to 7 as a value to change.
double indicator = iCustom(NULL, 0, "indicator name", "", 0, "", "My Alert Name", false, false true, 0, 1);

Now I understand. Item #1 and #3 is string (comment) , so I can use "" (NULL).
At first I thought that I could just type only what I want to change, but I had to write (parameter name) all of them.
Unfortunately I don't have the source file, so I will use this procedure.
I sometimes want to compare the result of indicators by changing parameters to optimize it.
We can't optimize parameter values for indicators by strategy tester just like EA, right?
So this is good way. Thank you so much.
