lippmaje :

The inputs ExtDepth, ExtDeviation, ExtBackstep are not evaluated. This line should be changed:

to

Furthermore, the start/stop time inputs are not evaluated, except for a validity check in OnInit(). So the user has no control over trading time although the inputs suggest otherwise.

1.006 Now the time settings work

input string      ____2___          = "Время работы советника";
input bool        InpTimeControl    = true;           // Use time control
input uchar       InpStartHour      = 10;             // Start Hour
input uchar       InpStartMinute    = 01;             // Start Minute
input uchar       InpEndHour        = 15;             // End Hour
input uchar       InpEndMinute      = 02;             // End Minute

And work:

handle_iCustom=iCustom(m_symbol.Name(),Period(),"Examples\\ZigZag",ExtDepth,ExtDeviation,ExtBackstep);

In addition, you can set the time inside the day and the time with the transition to another day (Russian part of the forum: https://www.mql5.com/ru/code/21452).

Vladimir Karputov :

Everything is correct. If the adviser uses indicators, then these indicators:

in the strategy tester: these indicators will be visible
in the terminal: these indicators will not be visible.

To display indicators used by the Expert Advisor in the terminal, you need to use the ChartIndicatorAdd command .

Please, I really need help to know how and where to place the ChartIndicatorAdd to see the indicators in the Expert Advisor.

Please, I really need help to know how and where to place ChartIndicatorAdd to see the indicators in the EA.

Here is where to place it:

      HLineCreate(0,"low",0,0.0,clrRed);
     }
//---
   ChartIndicatorAdd(0,0,handle_iCustom);
//---
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }

and here:

      HLineDelete(0,"low");
     }
//---
   long  id=ChartID();
   int   indicators_total=ChartIndicatorsTotal(id,0);
//---
   for(int m=indicators_total-1; m>=0; m--)
     {
      Print(ChartIndicatorName(id,0,m));
      if(ChartIndicatorName(id,0,m)=="ZigZag")
         ChartIndicatorDelete(id,0,"ZigZag");
     }
  }
