iCUSTOM always return 2147483647.0 for this RSI Divergence Indicator

New comment
 

Hello,

I am trying to use this indicator in a EA that I am currently building

I got the indicator here :  

https://www.bullforyou.com/Sourcecode/Indicators/153735942715023.html


My problem here is that this divergencesType always return 2147483647.0

divergencesType      = iCustom(NULL,0,"RSI_Divergence1","",14,0,"",true,true,false,true,true,3,1);


I don't understand why. Can yo help me to fix this please ?


Hereunder the code of the indicator named : RSI_Divergence1.mq4

Clark Djilo: My problem here is that this divergencesType always return 2147483647.0 
divergencesType      = iCustom(NULL,0,"RSI_Divergence1","",14,0,"",true,true,false,true,true,3,1);

That is EMPTY_VALUE.

        CatchBullishDivergence(i + 2);
        CatchBearishDivergence(i + 2);

The smallest index that buffer can ever be set is two.
