Hello,
You don't list the indicator formula you use, so it is kind of
hard to guess what you are doing on the charting side but anyway...
Few things to do:
1. Make sure that code used for CHART is the same as code used
for AUTOMATIC ANALYSIS
2.
Add
SetBarsRequired( 1000000, 1000000 );
to charting code. This effectively turns off QuickAFL.
This is "just in case" because of the fact that indicators use
QuickAFL (execution based on visible bars only plus some extra)
while AA uses ALL bars all the time.
This may lead to some very minor differences if your charts
are based on recursive functions such as EMA/MACD.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

Subject: [amibroker] Exploration giving bad dates
>I am using one indicator, MBI, to give buy signals and MACD zero
