39	england33 2011.11.27 02:14 I'm sure this has been answered before but I've searched and can not find the answer. How is a buffer value addressed/accessed through iCustom? say if I want to get information out of buffer 0 or buffer 1 of an indicator.

out of buffer 0 or buffer 1 of an indicator.

double iCustom( string symbol, int timeframe, string name, ..., int mode, int shift)

mode

Line index. Can be from 0 to 7 and must correspond with the index used by one of SetIndexBuffer functions.

Oh wait one more question my master? How do I address/get the value of a previous buffer with iCustom. I tried declaring a variable

of double type that pointed to iCustom but I get an error.

double a = iCustom(NULL, 0, "example",0,0);

string xx1 = DoubleToStr(a[1], Digits);

//this produces an error of unexpected token error unless i remove the [1] but that gives me the current value only.

//i need the previous buffer value.
