This number has the visual effect of 'smoothing' the line produced by the function - the bigger the number, the smoother the line. Just put a MA on any chart and play with the 'Period' variable. It should then be obvious as to its effect...
@ mladen - Ok, I'll try it, but before I do, in your experience, would the higher number be better? or does it just all depend on the currency used on and such?

Question Back history of indicators

When attaching some of indicators, MT4 just shows them on recent chart and long back history of them is not available.

How one can draw longer history ?

The short answer, learn to program MQL.

More to the point, these are all custom indicators that are programmed to just calculate on a certain number of bars - often because the calculations are time-consuming so a lot of bars would use more CPU time.

Assuming that there is no 'Bars' etc. available in the indicators' settings, the only thing you can do is change the code itself...

You are passing two objects (type and LotSize) to function 'openOrder', located elsewhere in the code.

Custom indocator to main indicator

How one can change a custom indicator to one of main indicators of MT4

In main indicators, one can draw indicator of another indicator (e.g. MA of RSI), but it is not possible for custom indicators
