Re: [amibroker] Example code doesn't work

["Joe Landry" <jelandry@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Seems the preference that I've seen on the forum is to use the AB array processing approach has rather than using

the looping technique.  That is unless you want to select and operate on a specific element of the array

like Close[i],

Plotcolor = IIf(Close>Open,colorGreen,colorRed);

Plot(C,"Close",Plotcolor,styleLine);

Subject: [amibroker] Example code doesn't work

Hi

Sorry for asking. In the code below, which I got from Common Coding mistakes I

neither see red nor green colors in my plot but I do see a gray plot.

What is wrong with this simple code?

Thanks in advance

Olli

_SECTION_BEGIN("ShowEarnings_1");

Color[0] = colorGreen;    // if I don't add this line I'll get Error 29, Variable 'color' used without having been initialized

  

for (i=0; i > BarCount; i++)

{

if (Close[i] > Open[i] )

Color[i] = colorGreen;

else

Color[i] = colorRed;

}

Plot(Close,"Colored Price", Color, styleCandle);

_SECTION_END();
