Hi,

How Can I call an Indicator through another Indicator? For example I need a function like iBands in MT4. But I can't find something similar in FT2. So is it possible to call the bollinger dll in order to do my job?

If so how? Or any other solutions/advices?

Thanks

No, there is no way to apply an indicator to another indicator, and there is no direct way to write an indicator which calls another indicator. The only way is to write an indicator which contains the code for both indicators.

The exception is a moving average. There is a moving average function (GetMA()) built into the API. You can call that function from within the code of another indicator.
