how to find Arrow on the chart if Object List empty?

[james272]

i want to identify arrow on the chart whether Up Arrow or Down Arrow but when i test with iCustom i couldn't see 'arrow' object in Object List even though arrow already populated on the chart.

i tried iCustom to get allocated buffer for find value in HalfTrend TT indicator which i attached file in here post.

but no luck.

any input or help much appreciate!

double HalfTrend0 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",0,i);
double HalfTrend1 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",1,i);
double HalfTrend2 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",2,i);
double HalfTrend3 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",3,i);
double HalfTrend4 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",4,i);
double HalfTrend5 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",5,i);
double HalfTrend6 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",6,i);

Buffer 4 : signal up. Buffer 5 : signal down

Source code (among other places) here : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/317586

PS: when an indicator does this in a main loop 

   for(int i=Bars-1; i>=0; i--)

I would seriously reconsider using that version (especially from iCustom() calls) instead of using some properly coded version

Hi..thanks for your answer!

Same buffers. Nothing changes as far as that is concerned

double HalfTrend0 = iCustom(Symbol(),0,"HalfTrend TT [x5v4]",0,i);

Open the «DataFolder»/Indicator folder and verify the filename exactly matches (including the square brackets and spaces).
