520fx is right, the indicator name is My
Try renaming your indicator. 'Save As' the indicator under a new name. Then also change the name to the new one in the iCustom call in the EA.
I was calling an indicator in the EA with an underscore (i.e. "Fractal_MFT") and got the "Cannot open file" error. After renaming the indicator without using the underscore (i.e. "FractalMFT"), and updating the name in the iCustom line of the EA (i.e. iCustom(NULL,timeFrame,"FractalMFT",0,y) the error stopped appearing.
