<![CDATA[Forex Software — Adding new indicator to FSB]]> 2022-08-12T03:55:10Z PunBB https://forexsb.com/forum/topic/9006/adding-new-indicator-to-fsb/ <![CDATA[Re: Adding new indicator to FSB]]> MQH files are libraries that the experts load. They are written in MQL as the other experts.
MQH files are suitable for indicators and other common functions that can be re-used by various experts.

The ATR Stop indicator is special because FSB Pro uses it to manage Stop Loss.
FSB Pro and EA Studio indicators are calculated on market data only. That is. The indicators do not have access to the positions or to the account parameters.

SL, TP and Break Even are managed by the backtester.

> But I can only find the .mqh file for this indicator but not the .cs file?

All FSB Indicators are publicly available here: https://github.com/PopovMP/FSB_Pro_Indicators
We created this C# project to be easier to create and compile custom indicators.

I managed to make a small start by copying the Momentum MT indicator and making some edits which loaded up nicely as the same indicator but a different name.

However then I though I would try and modify the ATR stop indicator. But I can only find the .mqh file for this indicator but not the .cs file?

Also what is the .mqh file? It seems to be a file that can be compiled by both mt4 and mt5? If so what language is it written in?

C:\Program Files\Forex Strategy Builder Pro\User Files\MT4 Files\MQL\Forexsb.com\Custom

The file is the same for MT4 and MT5.
(The folder is called MT4 Files because there was no MT5 at that time smile )

CustomIndicator.cs in this folder: Forex Strategy Builder Pro\User Files\Indicators

CustomIndicator.mqh in this folder: Forex Strategy Builder Pro\User Files\MT4 Files\MQL\Forexsb.com

And then the export to advisor function should work as intended in fsbpro?

I have the same question, happy enough that I can make things work in C# by modifying existing indicators.

But how does it work when exporting to export advisors? What extra work needs to be done to get that working as all I see in the repository is c# code?

Cheers

For export function to work, you have to make a .mqh version of the .cs indi.
Examples are in Custom and Indicators folder at   Forex Strategy Builder Pro\User Files\MT4 Files\MQL\Forexsb.com

Your work must go into Custom folder.

How I can convert them to C# then adding to FSB?

Here you can find all of the embedded indicators in the FSB Pro distributions: https://github.com/PopovMP/FSB_Pro_Indicators

Here are all community-developed custom indicators: https://forexsb.com/repository/repository_indicators/

You need an indicator written in C# for FSB Pro. You also need to have an MQL analogue of it for MetaTrader.
