The reason that you can't do trend1=ADX()[0]>ADX()[1]; is that it is
not legal to index a function call. You have to get the results from
the call placed in an array and then look at the elements.
As Mike said you DO NOT want to use array subscripts if you can avoid
it. There are a couple of r

Hi,
I doubt that you want to use hard coded element references like that.
You are effectively stating that you want to know if the ADX of
exactly the second bar is greater than that of exactly the first bar,

Hi,
I downloaded the NRx formula from the library and changed the
plotshapes to go with an an offset so all NRx's are above the High.
This all works well on a two day 15 min graph, but as soon as I change

Howard,
Well, there are two sides to this issue. One is the fact I cannot get a
standard built-in moving average to work on ExampleZscore. I have to use
ExampleMA to get any moving average of ExampleZscore to work.
The other side of the problem is I cannot get ExampleEMA to work at all.

Yeah, I am aware of that, Anthony. I have several AddColumn and
AddTextColumn statements in my code, but that error keeps coming up
when I run the exploration. Also, AddColumn statements don't seem to
work when within a function. That does not make sense to me either.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I found a temporary fix for this. You can bring up information on the
symbol and then set "Use only local database" to No. Then the stock
will update normally. However, I'd like to make that setting global.
Anyone know how to do that?
Gracias

Hello,
When using Addcolumn you should not need Numcolumnsthat was required in
earlier releases of Amibroker..and is there for backward compatability...

Hi,
The only way that I know how to find particular symbols at Yahoo is to
type in a key word like Gold into the symbol box.
As you type in letters Yahoo does it's best to perform a lookup of
various symbols that start with those letters.
Don't worry about the list Yahoo generates when you are
Well, maybe this might make it a little clearer. O,H,L,C are part of the
price array, so the elements are accessible. ADX() is a function, not an
array. You have to create an array filled with the results of the ADX
function.

I want to determine or ADX is uptrending or downtrending. Therfore I

This should result in a true or false for trend1 depending on
trenddirection of ADX. It gives however a consistent error 30 syntax

If I replace ADX() by H, C etc it works fine. Can som
