iCustom function
Good afternoon colleagues, I have tried to use the iCustom function to read the V 75 Super indicator 1 indicator but I have not been able to get the values I want, maybe I am entering the parameters wrong, but I have tried it in several ways and it always returns a value out of 10 when I print the read value. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.
I have also tried it with fewer parameters and it does not give me results
In the data windows are the values Top KR and Bottom KR which are the values I want to know

double buffer[]; int total = 10; ArrayResize (buffer,total); int Buysignal = iCustom (Symbol() , PERIOD_CURRENT,"V 75 Super Indicator 1",1,1,true,true,false,true, "Top KR","RED",1,0); if (Buysignal != INVALID_HANDLE){ for(int i=0; i<total; i++) { CopyBuffer(Buysignal,0,0,1,buffer); Print("SeñalBuy: ",buffer); } }
Not compiled, Not tested, just for example. You are trying to get values from a handle but you should expect values from buffer.
Perhaps you should read the manual, especially the examples.

They all (including iCustom) return a handle (an int). You get that in OnInit. In OnTick/OnCalculate (after the indicator has updated its buffers), you use the handle, shift and count to get the data.

Eso es porque devuelve un identificador para usar el indicador, no el valor del búfer.
Hello, I have tried to do it in the following way and it still does not give me results, could you tell me how to do it, I would appreciate it.
double buffer[]; int total = 10; ArrayResize (buffer,total); int Buysignal = iCustom (Symbol() , PERIOD_CURRENT,"V 75 Super Indicator 1",1,1,true,true,false,true, "Top KR","RED",1,0); Print(Buysignal); if (Buysignal != INVALID_HANDLE){ for(int i=0; i<total; i++) { CopyBuffer(Buysignal,0,0,1,buffer);
I'm new to this topic of buffers, I'm sorry, I really want to learn how to do it I don't know if the parameters that I am entering in iCustom are the correct ones because I don't know the indicator

don't use that code, it is not a good example.
look at the documentation where there is a working example

Hello, good afternoon, I did what you are telling me, however I still do not get results, I did it for a moving average and it worked for me but with the indicator that I want to extract the information it does not let me, I share the code and a screenshot where I try to read in the current candlestick and I should get the value of Bottom KR of the indicator that is at that moment and it gives me a high value as shown in the expert section.

I want to get the Top KR and Bottom KR values of the indicator. I appreciate your collaboration.
I share the indicator so that you can help me please.

Doing tests, it is reading the value but only from Top KR Blue when the arrow appears, I would only miss it when the red arrow appears Bottom KR
Your image shows there are two buffers. Read the other one.
Of course, I made two buffers but I could not obtain the different values, for Top KR the red arrow works for me but for the Blue arrow it does not read values, they will not be the parameters that I enter in iCustom
If someone helps me, I appreciate it, I already have 50% thanks to you.
