Hi

My query is , " how to calculate price of the signal candle?"

Can any one help me please?


Below is my code for indicator.

Paste your indicator code into messages. Use the button  Code to insert code.

Sorry, all of our wizards and telapats are on vacation right now. Without them, We cannot read your thoughts. There is only one way left: you must attach the code of your indicator using the button  Code.

Then use that data to put it where ever you need it or send it to your alert as well. 
Anyhow just what little I know and that is not much.
