Re: [amibroker] help with ref()

[Waleed Khalil <waleedkhalil@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Ara for the fast reply
i did that also and i still get zero
the issue is that i need to get the first date in the chart and then get 
the close for the same day for the Foreign stock

SetBarsRequired(100000, 0);
case30=Foreign ("case30","close ");
Case30basevalue= Ref (Foreign ("case30","close "), -BarCount);
Title = "  BarCount = " + BarCount + "Case30basevalue =" +Case30basevalue  ;
