it is just like Woodie's CCI .

I post HERE simple version, test it and if you want some extras, write it...

for external parameters

To be honest haven't done an EA this way but it should work.

Here is the EA using G channel as trend indicator and MTF option along with stepRSI as a pullback entry.
I used the Buffer8 as trend filter for G channel as Buffer14 did not work.
I am attaching the indicators and EA mql4 code here.
I am still working out profitable settings but this code for G channel is working for an EA.

Can you explain exactly how you are using the g channel and step rsi in this ea, can probably make you a simple g channel and step rsi for you to use in an ea, that wouldn't require all those iCustom calls that are not needed. No offence, but with the candles (4 buffers), the outer channels (2 buffers), the colored lines (6 buffers), and the arrows (2 buffers) then the trend buffer after that, there is no way buffer 8 is the trend buffer, probably something wrong in your iCustom call.

I am using stepRSI cross below40 or above60 when G channel trend matches. This takes entry around middle of the channel in direction of trend.
I used iCustom call for G channel as 1 or -1 for Buffer14, but did not work . So used buffer8.
Let me know if better way to do that or a modified G channel for EA.
Thanks.

Is the g channel mtf and are you just using close price without pre-smoothing? Will do a lightened version for your EA.

Thank you... I want to use MTF G channel without presmooting and close price breakout of G channel lines.

Did this version it's just the g channel ma with a choice of slope color or close price crossing the ma. On this version the trend buffer is #5.

Thanks for taking time for writing extra indicator.
I checked the values of Buffer5 in Data window but it shows no value...

iCustom(NULL,0,"",........,5,0) ==1 or -1 for long or short trend

Is this the right expression?

Yes.

Here is modified EA based on new G channel indicator.
the MTF call for G channel is working ok along with pyramid function.
