Increase decimals value(digits) of an indicator?

[dallascat]

Hi, when plotting say a MA for example, the EUR/USD, it returns the value as 1.xxxxx (5 digits).  How can I increase that to say 8 digits - 1.xxxxxxxx?  Using this in a MA slope EA.  TIA!

1. MA doesn't return anything. It shows what it is coded to do. You can't change it.

2. If you are coding your own indicator, you should read the manual.
             IndicatorDigits - Custom Indicators - MQL4 Reference

3. Reading indicators into an EA you get a double. Floating-point has infinite number of decimals.

   Print out your values to the precision you want with DoubleToString - Conversion Functions - MQL4 Reference.
