I tried in many ways to make this reference, but I just wasn't successful.
Pani, could you please give me a concrete example of how to do this?

Below is the indicator in question

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

Here is an example

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewcBot : Robot
    {
        [Parameter(DefaultValue = 0.5)]
        public double Deviation { get; set; }
        [Parameter("% Retracement", DefaultValue = 38.2)]
        public double per { get; set; }

        NewIndicator _indicator;

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            _indicator = Indicators.GetIndicator<NewIndicator>(Deviation, per);
        }

        protected override void OnTick()
        {
            // Put your core logic here
        }

        protected override void OnStop()
        {
            // Put your deinitialization logic here
        }
    }
}

Thank you very much, Pani
I managed to reference the indicator because of your tips
You are the man!

now i'm trying to put a business condition using this indicator
Please how can I do this efficiently? see how I'm trying

the idea is whenever the price is below the indicator's retraction line that he makes a trade

   if (_1hstoch2.PercentK.LastValue > 80)

 if ( Symbol.Ask <  (NewIndicator, per, 38,2))

           
                        ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, Volume, "bot", StopLoss, TakeProfit);

Can't say without seeing the indicator code!

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

The code you posted doesn't make much sense to me. I am not sure I can help you with this.

Hi Pani. My question is: How can I place a condition for the trade based on the customized indicator? More specifically,

when the price is below the uptrend line, the bot makes a buy trade

could you kindly give me an example of how this can be done?

As we can see in the image, the price is below the high line of the indicator. Soon after the price goes up.

My question is: how can I place a condition in my bot, so that as soon as the price is below the high 
trend line of the indicator, the Bot makes a buy trade?

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

The indicator has a sign output.

        [Output("_forIndicators", Color = Colors.Gray, PlotType = PlotType.DiscontinuousLine)]
        public IndicatorDataSeries sign { get; set; }

You should be checking if the last value of the sign output is above or below the bid price and place the trade accordingly

Hi Pani, thank you so much for your tips

However I did not understand how to program the condition.
Could you kindly give me an example of how to do what you said?

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

I am not sure what do you need exactly. If you need the if statement, then it would look something like

if (sign.LastValue(1) > Symbol.Bid)
.
