Yuki,
This looks like a simple syntax issue:
IIf(PrimeA, AddColumn(13000000 / Close, "Shares", format = 1.0),
AddColumn(10000000 / Close, "Shares", format = 1.0));
would be
AddColumn(
IIf(PrimeA, 13000000 / Close, 10000000 / Close),
"Shares", 1.0
);
You don't need the "format = ", btw. Hope it helps.
