Integrate one indicator into another and use its value

Hi there,

I'm using two indicators:

1. Hull

2. ATR2

In this indicator the value for "inpPeriod" of each candle should be set to

inpPeriod = (1 / ATR2[0]) * 15000). In case of the "dow jones" 15000 is a good number.

That means: inpPeriod should be calculated new for each candle by this formula. As a consequence inpPeriod will be different for each candle.

The value of ATR2[0] should be generated like in the following code:

// ATR2

double      ATR2[];                // array for the indicator ATR2

int         ATR2_handle;           // handle of the indicator ATR2



   // ATR2

      ATR2_handle=iATR(_Symbol,_Period,2);

      if(ATR2_handle < 0) {

         Print("The creation of ATR2_handle has failed: Runtime error =",GetLastError());

         return(-1);

      }



   //ATR2

   if(CopyBuffer(ATR2_handle,0,0,2,ATR2) <= 0){

      Print("CopyBuffer(ATR2_handle,0,0,2,ATR2) <= 0)");

      Message[1] = "CopyBuffer(ATR2_handle,0,0,2,ATR2) <= 0)";

      return(0);

   }

   ArraySetAsSeries(ATR2,true);

   //Set Value

   TTAtr_2[TradeType] = ATR2[0];
