Testing problem with iCustom().

 
I use iCustom to call an indicator in my EA, when testing it is two slow(more than 20 minutes). I use the Heiken Ashi indicator. Anyone know why it is so slow? When I use an indicator which I create myself, it is very slow too when testing. Thanks.
 
Good morning, I am using an expert advisor with the Donchian Channel indicator but it does not activate it, I need to activate it as an iCustom and how to call it. Thank you and our message here.

See here how to use iCustom https://docs.mql4.com/indicators/icustom and how it is called.

EA's have no eyes, they don't need to see it on the chart. iCustom just reads the indicator's buffers; it doesn't “activate it” so you can see it.

If you want to see it on the chart, you add it.
