trix indicator mql5

Hello guys,

I'am looking for a trix indicator in mql5. I have found a code in mql4 but i can's get it work in mql5. I don't know much about coding. Here is the code in mql4:

mq4 never works in mq5

you have to develop it mq5, Please wait for more valuable comments from other members

TRIX is comes as standard in MT5

There is a standard Trix indicator in MT5 but there is no signal line. I need a Trix indicator with a EMA signal line period 5.
