As mentioned in the earlier replies, you must include the indicator. You can do this either by drag dropping it onto a chart and editing the resulting code (resulting in duplication of the code into the current file), or by using #include/#include_once.

Both approaches will ultimately have the same effect in that AmiBroker   will internally insert the #included code, at a very slight performance cost. The advantage is that when using #include, code maintenance is much easier since you only ever have to modify a single file to make changes (as opposed to updating all the copies resulting from drag drop).

As for code completion, I believe that you would have to write your indicator as a .DLL using the developer's kit.

But when I try to write a simple buy/sell script in the AFL Editor it does not recognize my indicator (syntax error). It also does not show up in the auto-completion drop down (typing first char and pressing ctrl + space). Did I miss something or do I have to include the indicator somehow?
