In the branch about ZZ, I gave You the code where the ZZ indicator is used, what is not clear there?

In General, external is not included in the terminal. That is, handwritten. I have a problem with the ZigZag indicator, it is standard, but its handle can only be obtained through the iCustom () function.
Then, using CopyBuffer (), I copied its data to the buffer. But when displaying extremes in the log it shows some kind of heresy) defines either the first vertex that has not yet formed. Either 6 is also not yet formed-those are the current extreme.
Could you tell me the pros pliz!

Find out the short name and handle of the indicator, if it is not one-go through all the available ones on the chart in a cycle,
// – – – number of Windows on the chart (there is always at least one main window)
int windows=(int)ChartGetInteger(0,CHART_WINDOWS_TOTAL);
// – – – go through the chart Windows
for(int w=0;w
{
// – – – how many indicators are there in this window/subwindow
int total=ChartIndicatorsTotal(0,w);
// – – – let’s go through all the indicators in the window
for(int i=0;i
{
// – – – get the short name of the indicator
string name=ChartIndicatorName(0,w,i);
// – – – get the indicator handle
int handle=ChartIndicatorGet(0,w,name);
next, use the CopyBuffer() function to take values from the buffer of the selected indicator at the time of interest, and then do what you wanted with them.
Perhaps there is a simpler and more effective way.
