CPlotManager (Automatic Buffer and Plot Manager) - Library for MetaTrader 5 - MT4/MT5 Resources

We've all been there (I think). You are writing a complex indicator with more than 70 buffers and more than 30 plots. You decide to move the "Fill" background behind the "Candle" chart, and suddenly you have to manually renumber 50 lines of SetIndexBuffer calls.

Because of the color buffers, trying to calculate whether "Plot 5" starts at "Buffer 12" or "Buffer 16" is tedious, error-prone, and a huge headache.

I wrote a wrapper class ( "CPlotManager" ) to automate this hierarchy.

You just "add" the drawings in the order you want them drawn. This class automatically handles math, buffer binding, and styling.

include helper_plots.mqh .

Set up your #property Total (give yourself plenty of room).

exist When initializing , instantiate the manager and " add " what you need.

Check out the demo code for the complete implementation.
