Herman,
I just noticed that your EMPTY is -1^10, ie equal to 1.
So, your equivalent formula is
EMPTY = 1;
AddToComposite(IIf(Open == 1,0,1),"~DataPresent","v",3);
Do you have in the group of your gif some stocks with open==1 ?
This would give some explanation.

PS The huge negative symbol in AFL is -1e10
