Thread: Help Please: I can't get the buffer value with iCustom()

There is something similar. Busca buffer viewer.mq4. It is not perfect, but it helps a lot in testing.

You can also make one simple. A script that prints the values on the chart. It doesn't cost that much and is super useful.

I tested strategy mode and the values returned change with respect to live mode. Why?

Backtest on MT4 does not simulate exactly the same environment. Indicators that depend on ticks may behave differently.

In addition, the backtest history is limited. Sometimes the indicator does not have enough data to calculate well.

If I make the EA read only the last confirmed value (not the current one)

Yes, if you read SignalDelay+1 instead of +0, avoid the repainting. But you also arrive later.

It is a good compromise. A little less fast, but much more reliable. Ideal for semiautomatic systems.

I'm thinking of throwing a thread with a list of iCustom-compatible indicators without repainting.

There are too many who say don't repaint and they're pure smoke.
