RE: [amibroker] Need Help With FirstVisibleBarIndex

[Thomas Z.]

Hello Wayne,   the status gives you only a 1 at those bars. Therefore your NumBars gives you 1-1+1 which is 1 you need to implement the valuewhen function. Beginx = valuewhen(begin,barindex());   Begin=Status("firstvisiblebarindex"); End=Status("lastvisiblebarindex"); NumBars=LastValue(Begin-End+1);   Best Regards   Thomas www.tradingbasis.com   From: amibroker@yahoogroups.com [mailto:amibroker@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of wlandry01 Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 3:19 PM To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Subject: [amibroker] Need Help With FirstVisibleBarIndex   Hi, I'm trying to set up an indicator that will calculate the HHV for the current chart so that I can do a PlotGrid at 90% of that highest value shown on the chart. I thought the following would do this: //Calculate the Number of Bars Shown on the Current Chart Begin=Status("firstvisiblebarindex"); End=Status("lastvisiblebarindex"); NumBars=LastValue(Begin-End+1); //Determine the HHV of the Chart and Calculate 90% of that Value HighValue=HHV(C,NumBars); TestValue=0.9*LastValue(HighValue); //Plot the Result PlotGrid(TestValue,ColorDarkRed); It appears, however, that the "Begin" and "End" values are not returning the index values associated with the chart. As far as I can tell, I'm getting "1" for all values. I can't for the life of me understand what the problem might be. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
