I need help with a single line of code

The EA builder I am using will not give the option of choosing which bar for the indicator value, only the bar just closed. How can I change the second part of the condition to reference the indicator value for the bar previous to the bar just closed?
if(iCustom(NULL, PERIOD_CURRENT, "Jurik filter", PERIOD_CURRENT, 50, 0.0, false, 17, 0, 2, 0, 0, 3, true, 2, 2, 159, 159, 0.5, 0.5, clrLimeGreen, clrOrange, true, 0, 0) > iCustom(NULL, PERIOD_CURRENT, "Jurik filter", PERIOD_CURRENT, 50, 0.0, false, 17, 0, 2, 0, 0, 3, true, 2, 2, 159, 159, 0.5, 0.5, clrLimeGreen, clrOrange, true, 0, 0) //Jurik filter > Jurik filter
)
I want to compare the indicator value of the bar just closed (is greater than) with the same indicator value for the previous bar

Try like this
Code: Select all
if(iCustom(NULL, PERIOD_CURRENT, "Jurik filter", PERIOD_CURRENT, 50, 0.0, false, 17, 0, 2, 0, 0, 3, true, 2, 2, 159, 159, 0.5, 0.5, clrLimeGreen, clrOrange, true, 0, 1) > iCustom(NULL, PERIOD_CURRENT, "Jurik filter", PERIOD_CURRENT, 50, 0.0, false, 17, 0, 2, 0, 0, 3, true, 2, 2, 159, 159, 0.5, 0.5, clrLimeGreen, clrOrange, true, 0, 2) //Jurik filter > Jurik filter
)

EA do not like long iCustom chains, it is much more convenient to edit the code of the indicator itself, for example, I left only one parameter (period) for it
iCustom(NULL, PERIOD_CURRENT, "Jurik filter for EA", 17, 0, 0)

Ok. I have little experience with this code and I used the EA Builder site to create the EA. Thanks for the advice
