double fastMaV = iMA(NULL,0,fastMa,fastMaShift,fastMaMode,fastMaPrice,[i]);
double slowMaV = iMA(NULL,0,slowMa,slowMaShift,slowMaMode,slowMaPrice,[i]);

Hello,

I need your help guys how to make the variable ...[i].... an array variable so i dont have copy the code multiple times for each candle.

Thank You.  

 
Try this: place the cursor on iMA, press F1 and study the example in the reference.

  1. Why did you post your MT4 question in the MT5 General section instead of the MQL4 section, (bottom of the Root page)?
              General rules and best pratices of the Forum. - General - MQL5 programming forum?
    Next time post in the correct place. The moderators will likely move this thread there soon.

  2. Why would you “copy the code multiple times for each candle?” There is only one value per candle per length. Your question doesn't make sense.
  3. Where you have “[i],” is the shift value. It can't be an array. Your question doesn't make sense.

if(fastMaV4>slowMaV4&&fastMaV3<slowMaV3&&fastMaV2<slowMaV2&&fastMaV1<slowMaV1&&fastMaV0<slowMaV0)

then i can buy or sell

what you see doesn't make sense !!! I want to calculate the price on those 4 candles or more i dont want to copy it 4 times as you see so i want to put like some kind in an array.

That's the way it is handled in MT4 (and that's what the reference tells you), switch to MT5 there you hand over an array to CopyBuffer to get more than one value per function call. All you need to know is mentioned in the particular reference.

   double fastMA[5];
   double slowMA[5];
   for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
      {
      fastMA[i] = iMA(NULL,0,fastMa,fastMaShift,fastMaMode,fastMaPrice,i);
      slowMA[i] = iMA(NULL,0,slowMa,slowMaShift,slowMaMode,slowMaPrice,i);

Yes it helps when the question can be understood. I didn't understand the original question.
