Thanks alot! Now Iam able to backtest it.

Speaking of - I automated backtesting for that indicator for a simple condition. (if fast wpr is >30 draw X)

tested on D1. If I start 2020.05.01 it checks successfully for said condition without problems until 2021.10.21 (nothing specific about this date)

thats weird because after 2021.10.21 the conditions are still met but somehow it doesnt get recognized anymore.
If I start my backtest at 2021.10.21 it starts to recognize the condition of the indicator correctly again for a certain amount of time and then just breaks off again.

This is exclusive to this indicator - which is the only reason I am even bothering you since you are not using the the expert advisor builder (fxdreema)

I guess my question is just is there anything in that indicator that could trigger such behavior or maybe you have encountered similar behavior before in your MT4 journey and can give a educated guess.

Iam sorry - i just realized that there is little you can do from my post about the backtesting problem.

Thats why I provide you the simple ea that performs the simple task of drawing an X when condition is true.
Would really appreciate you look into it for a minute as I can not see a problem with the mq4 code of the ea itself that would explain that behavior. so maybe the indicator? maybe iam not experianced enough.

Like I said. EA just stops checking for the condition after almost 2 years of candles. I do D1 Timeframe 4 years of testing


Thanks if you have a second to look into it

Found the indicator was showing an array out of range error in the filtering part changed out the filter and no more error in the indicator call but couldn't get the EA to trade, so posting the corrected indicator and EA, but with the EA not sure what is going on with it.

Hello and regards. In my opinion, one of the most valuable indicators in this forum is the Chaos indicator. I appreciate your efforts and the excellent versions you provide. I have a request—if possible, I would be grateful if you could check whether it can be done. I would like to have an arrow code appear when the color of the WPRs changes. Again, thank you! @mrtools

Sorry for writing again. Since mentioning @mrtools doesn't work and I don't know how to mention an ID, I sent a message again. I thought you might miss it in the busy forum. Thanks.

Hello, don't think it would be possible am only allowed if memory serves me right 63 characters in the iCustom mtf call and think adding those arrows will bring the total character above that, need to do some research and see if there might be another way.

Thank you for your response. With the brilliance you have, I hope a way can be found. It would be fascinating and amazing to try it out, and having such an option would be super cool. I'm truly in love with this indicator overall.
