Hi WHR,
Thanks for the link.
To be clear - I was never here to ask someone to code it for me, just some pointers to get me started in the right direction :)

Hi All,
Been a lurker here for a while now and found countless useful topics for which I am very grateful :)
I am now venturing into the world of MQ4 and would like some pointers on how to get started with what I want to achieve.
I wish to build a custom indicator which simply prints arrows and alerts (buy and sell) when criteria is met from 3 different indicators.
Lets say for example my indicators are called IND1.ex4, IND2.ex4 and IND3.ex4 and are all oscillators. My new indicator will be called IND4.
When IND1 crosses 0 line AND when IND2 crosses 0 line AND when IND3 crosses 0 line from below - IND4 prints arrow/alert buy signal.
Can anyone help me get started with this or will I need to go down the EA route?
Thanks.
TPS.
