Way back on post #250 I had put up a couple of charts using mmlines.
What I saw way back then was that if the zigzag pointer showed up around the 1/8 or the 7/8 it had a good chance of changeing direction. There was still some repaints but was not that bad.

May I ask what TF this is working for you on, please?
MagicNumber or MagicID is an integer so it cannot be too large. I have not checked the size limit on integers in MT4 but I think it is at least 16 bits so 2 raised to the 16th power is a reasonable maximum. Anything under 65536 should work. If an integer is 32 bit then 4294967296 is the maximum so up to 9 digits is fine or 10 digits if less than the maximum.
Of course you can always use 1 or 2 digits.
I will add a function to the EA to calculate the magic number based on currency pair and chart timeframe when time allows.
