Help with Indicator for finds objects in the Chart of another indicator.

[Jiri Kasparek]

Can someone help me with an indicator that finds objects in the Chart of another indicator?

My Indicator finds objects, but copies them, and does not show its own colors.

I need it to show its own colors according to its own buffers. Thank you

#property indicator_separate_window
#property indicator_buffers 3


#property indicator_color1 Gray
#property indicator_width1 2


#property indicator_color2 Lime
#property indicator_width2 2

#property indicator_color3 Red
#property indicator_width3 2


 
 
#property indicator_minimum 0
#property indicator_maximum 0.1


// exported variables


// local variables
string LF = "\n";  // use this in custom or utility blocks where you need line feeds
int ObjCount = 0;  // count of all objects created on the chart, allows creation of objects with unique names
int current = 0; // variable points to current bar

double Buffer3[];
double Buffer2[];
double Buffer4[];

Thank you and I'm sorry.

Hi Jiri,

i would advise you to set the chart_id (first parameter) of the ObjectFind function.

Best regards

Thanks, but it didn't help much. I'm not that experienced a coder, and I've looked at this feature, but I don't know exactly how to use it.

Can you write me a piece of code for a sample?
