Dear Support,

I am looking for some kind of description or documentation of a converted MQL4ConnectorIndicator class, and its related parameters. For example:
When I am converting an empty mq4 indicator to JForex, the generated indicator has the following parameters by default:
Connector lookback (Bars)
Connector shift
Connector is iCustom
Connector max bars
Connector debug (on console)

What is the purpose of these parameters? Some of them are probably obvious (like the Connector max bars is referring to the number of bars back in time where the indicator is being calculated, right?), but instead of guessing, could we have some documentation on these?

They were introduced for indicator performance tuning and correcting the behaviour of particular indicator kinds. However, the only one of actual application would be "Connector max bars", which determines how many bars the indicator calculates over. The rest are obsolete and are kept for backwards compatibility.
