Get ex5 Indicator Buffer Name And Value

[Guest mr.jimmi]

Hello admin,

I have an ex5 file(no source code). I don't need decompiling but I only need to know buffer names and numbers. Is it possible to do that and for what fee?

Hello Jimmie,

It is possible. If you don't mind you can upload that indicator here i check for you.

It's possible that this indicator is wide spread and freely available, I don't know that, I haven't figured out that yet. But I figured it works very well with my own EA but I can't code it without knowing buffers. I assume it is some sort of trend indicator.

You can get buffer details for ex5 files even if you don't have the source code, but you need to know all input parameters and data type. then put that indicator in mt5 indicators  folder.

Sample code snippets

bool signal (double value) 
{
  if (value != 0 && value != EMPTY_VALUE)
     return value;
  else
     return false; //here you can return either value or bool true/false
}

input string IndicatorName = ""; // Indicator File Name

if(custom==INVALID_HANDLE)
 iCustom(NULL, 0, IndicatorName)
////////////////////////////////////////////

if (IndicatorName != "") {
     UP = iCustom(NULL, 0, IndicatorName);
     DOWN = iCustom(NULL, 0, IndicatorName);

     return INIT_FAILED;

Handle=iCustom(NULL,0,"IndicatorName",Length_,Phase_,2,0,0);
  if(JO_Handle==INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
     Print(" Failed to get handle of the indicator JMA");
     return(1);
    }
