    Hi all.  Before I ask this question, I promise I have searched the site and am struggling to get this to work.

    I am trying to call an indicator however it keeps saying

    // Conditions to enter long positions
ignored, ignored, ignored, ignored, indicator1, ignored = CALL CamTDI

     

    The indicator is the TDI which I got from this site but I cant work out how to declare values and or parameters.

    The TDI indicator is below and I was hoping someone could assist or tell me what I am missing

     

    lengthRSI = 13
lengthband = 34
lengthrsipl = 2
lengthtradesl = 7

r = rsi[lengthrsi](close)
ma = average[lengthband](r)
offs = (1.6185 * std[lengthband](r))
up = ma+offs
dn = ma-offs
mid = (up+dn)/2
mab = average[lengthrsipl](r)
mbb = average[lengthtradesl](r)

lineup = 75
linemid = 50
linedown = 25

RETURN lineup as "line up", linemid as "line mid", linedown as "line down", up coloured(0,0,255) as "up", dn coloured(0,0,255) as "dn", mid coloured(255,165,0) as "mid", mab coloured(0,255,0), mbb coloured(255,0,0)

    The indicator returns 8 values but you only have 6 in your CALL instruction.

    To get returned values you simply have to:

    lineup,linemid,linedown,up,dn,mid,mab,mbb=CALL CamTDI  //or x1,x2,x3,x4,x5,x6,x7,x8=CALL CamTDI or ignored,ignored,x3,x4,x5,x6,x7,ignored=CALL CamTDI (choose the values of interest for you)

    If, instead, you want to change the values passed on to the indicator, then you have not to declare them inside the indicator as static variables, but declare them from within ProBuilder clicking on the upper left spanner and then iserting the names of the variables in the desidered order (comment them out in the code), then call it with either constants or variables:

    lineup,linemid,linedown,up,dn,mid,mab,mbb=CALL CamTDI(13,34,2,7)
//              or
v1=13
ve=34
v3=2
v4=7
lineup,linemid,linedown,up,dn,mid,mab,mbb=CALL CamTDI(v1,v2,v3,v4)

    documentation will be of further help, as Vonasi suggested.
