Not certain what you mean
Barcount is the count of the number of bars in your chart. It is same as
saying Lastvalue(cum(1)) or Lastvalue(Barindex()+1)
So the line
for (i=1;i<BarCount;i++)
looks at the 2nd bar (1st bar is zero) to the last bar of the data.
I would suggest your strange results could most likely be in the formulae
you are using within the code. Can you post the full code?
Just looking at the line I can see I may be wrong above and if you have put
this as a full line in the code
statement (for (i=1;i<BarCount;i++))
Then you do not use the statement part.
There are examples in the help files for using the if for etc statements
Amibroker Formula Language - AFL Reference Manual
You do not need to define a variable or array before using it, except to
define the first value
Here is one example from the help file as above
myema[ 0 ] = Close[ 0 ];
for( i = 1; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
myema[ i ] = 0.1 * Close[ i ] + 0.9 * myema[ i - 1 ];
}
Hope this helps
Cheers,
Graham
