How do custom indicators work?
Integrating Custom Indicators is simple and effective but requires meeting the following prerequisites:
- Indicators Installed in cTrader: The custom indicator must already be present in the cTrader environment.
- Source Code Required: Only indicators with available source code can be uploaded.
- Output Required: Each indicator must provide at least one result to be usable.
- Compatibility with .NET Framework 6.0: Indicators must be compiled with this framework to ensure proper functionality.
What If My Custom Indicator Uses a Different Framework?
If your Custom Indicator is on .NET Framework 4.0, you can easily upgrade it by following these steps:
- Open the source code page of the indicator in cTrader.
- Set the framework to .NET Framework 6.0.
- Click Build to complete the conversion and re-download the indicator with source code.
Once updated, the indicator will be ready to upload to AlgobuilderX.
