Unfortunately metatrader does not work like tradestation, and for some reason metatrader people enabled that feature from the built in indicators and did not do the same thing for custom indicators

Can you please post here the full code with changes.
Instead of mentioning any indicator (like RSI) inside the code, isn't it possible to use it for any indicator that the new indicator is attached to, just like Moving Average of Oscillator..
Not sure if this has been done before or if anyone will have any use for this but I put together a simple extension of the Std-Dev indicator to allow you to calculate a simple MA of the Std-Dev. I use this to gauge when price is trending, if SD is greater than the moving average then price is in a trend and you should enter an order in the direction of the movement. seems to work best with high Std values, I currently use 50 period Std and 15 moving average period. It works well as a filter for my current EA, it managed to increase the accuracy by about 15%. Hope this helps someone.
Can spread and slippage be roughly estimated through standard deviation?
So slippage and spread increase in times of increased price fluctuation and news events. Can it be roughly estimated with regards to the standard deviation of past days or hours? For example. (S+S)=k*stdev(d1,d2,....dn) with k as a constant.
