visually backtest with custon indicator

[hamid_gh11]

hi.

when I use icustom indicator in my EA , in Visually backtest, add a new indicator window in each cycle or each tick. what should I do?

for example when I use iRSI(Symbol(),Period(),14)  in back test, just draw one indicator RSI and every thing is OK . but when i change it to iCustom(Symbol(),Period(),"RSI",14) it add a new RSI window in each tick or each cycle! how can I solve this problem?

thanks.

double  iCustom_buf[];
void OnTick()
  {
   string name="Examples\\RSI";
   
   int handle_iCustom=iCustom(Symbol(),Period(),name,14);
  //int handle_iCustom=iRSI(Symbol(),Period(),14,PRICE_CLOSE);
 
   int err1=CopyBuffer(handle_iCustom,0,0,1,iCustom_buf);

   Comment(iCustom_buf[0]);
  }

You should only get the handle once in OnInit not every tick...
