Even if this is no longer current, I'll write something useful in the thread.
Many custom indicators can be downloaded from the CodeBase. We consider the corresponding CodeBase pages to be self-explanatory.
As a comment from articles on the MQL5 wizard, the only other question that really makes sense is how an indicator can be used by experts, even though no signal based on a given indicator appears in the list of trading signals when the wizard is executed.
To understand the context, the wizard should be run with a few different settings for the various components and the generated code including the CExpertSignal, CExpertMoney and CExpertTrailing classes should be analysed.
In fact, even the standard indicators are unknown to the wizard because they are also encapsulated by the signal classes stored in the right place.
Dieser Beitrag liefert Beschreibungen der neuen Features im aktualisierten MQL5 Wizard. Die modifizierte Architektur von Signalen ermöglicht die Erstellung von Handelsrobotern, die auf der Kombination verschiedener Marktmuster beruhen. Das Beispiel in diesem Beitrag erläutert das Verfahren zur interaktiven Erstellung eines Expert Advisors.
The article discusses how to write your own class of trading signals with the implementation of signals on the crossing of the price and the moving average, and how to include it to the generator of trading strategies of the MQL5 Wizard, as well as describes the structure and format of the description of the generated class for the MQL5 Wizard.
Have fun!
