Use MODE to tell your indicator what buffer you want. The support resistance indicators may use buffer 0 ( MODE=0 ) for resistance and buffer 1 ( MODE=1 ) for support.

SHIFT says to use the value from Bar(SHIFT) of the indicator called by iCustom.

Does that help?
Ok, I get Shift, will have to do more reading about Mode.

Do you code? I have this indicator that I call from my EA but not sure how to set it up properly. See pic.
it just has two lines and when Blue changes and lines up with the other line, Long signal is generated (Same idea with Red)
Tried a few different codes like the one I used with the VQ indicator;
double Entry1 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "VQ", 24, 30....., 0, 1);
double Entry2 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "VQ", 24, 30....., 0, 2);
double Up2 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "VQ", 24, 30....., 1, 2);
double Down2 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "VQ", 24, 30....., 2, 2);

Just not trading right.

Thanks
