Indicator for EA

 

Hello!

I want to plot values from the EA in a chart's sub window similar as most indicators do.

I change the EA code often so changing Indicator's code every time EA has changed should not be the best option.

Is there any good suggestion for this?

 

EA doesn't store all previous histories of EA input parameters, so you can create an external file, every time EA is initialized, you write a line with all the EA parameters into your external file. 

Then read from your external file and plot the content on the screen.

    Can't be done. Only an indicator can create a sub-window.

    No buffers, you will have to do everything yourself with objects.

  3. EAs have no eyes. They don't need to “see” anything.

Only now I am starting to understand the meaning of "they don't need to "see" anything". All parameters are the produced inside.
