My typo. The code should be

difftick = iClose(ForSymbol,0,i)-iOpen(ForSymbol,0,i)

You can do that - see the following code - and it works in run-time too

Code: Select all

   Comment("Current fixed minimum : "+(string)WindowPriceMin(WindowFind(shortName))+"\n"+
           "Current fixed maximum : "+(string)WindowPriceMax(WindowFind(shortName)));

I saw the StepMA_v1.mq4 code, but i have concern about the the variable smin0,smax0,smin1,smax1, so the smax1 & smin1 are the previous bar value of smax0&smin0? and this code work? for my understanding, should write the code like: smin[shift], smin[shift+1].
Thanks!

int start()
{
int shift,trend;
double smin0,smax0,smin1,smax1;


for(shift=Bars-1;shift>=0;shift--)
{
if (HighLow>0)
{
smax0=Low[shift]+2*StepSize*Point;
smin0=High[shift]-2*StepSize*Point;

if(Close[shift]>smax1) trend=1;
if(Close[shift]<smin1) trend=-1;
}

if (HighLow == 0)
{
smax0=Close[shift]+2*StepSize*Point;
smin0=Close[shift]-2*StepSize*Point;

if (Close[shift]>smax1) trend=1;
if (Close[shift]<smin1) trend=-1;
}

if(trend>0 && smin0<smin1) smin0=smin1;
if(trend<0 && smax0>smax1) smax0=smax1;

if (trend>0) LineBuffer[shift]=smin0+StepSize*Point;
if (trend<0) LineBuffer[shift]=smax0-StepSize*Point;

smin1=smin0;
smax1=smax0;

Use some of the new stepMA indicators - for multiple reasons, one being that the new versions (of all step things) are not repainting

Thanks a lot! I will check the new stepMA, there are so many versions.
Which I confuse for the above code is that the smax1 & smin1 value, where they are from?
Thanks!

After that we started to realize how non repainting code should be done
