 Typo - put () in datenum() 
  
====================== 
  
I gather from your note that "first date in 
chart" is the first date of the data and not of the visible chart.  If so, 
give this a shot:  
  
setbarsrequired(100000, 0); 
y = foreign("XXX", "close"); 
yclose = valuewhen(datenum() == valuewhen(barindex() 
== 0, datenum, 1), y, 1);
