This is a simple test I am trying to perform on the way to a more complex looping system.
I discovered that the following small piece of code produces a weird result in the AA Window.
The calculated values of RSI inside the loop produce "offset results" when sent to the AA window via the AddColumn function.
 

AB = CreateObject("Broker.Application");

AA = AB.Analysis;

WL = AA.Filter(0, "WatchList");

WLSyms = CategoryGetSymbols(categoryWatchlist, WL);

 

if (Name() == StrExtract(WLSyms, 0))

   {

      WLQty = 0;

      for (i = 0; (Symbol = StrExtract(WLSyms, i)) != ""; i++)

      {

         WLQty = WLQty + 1;

         SetForeign(Symbol);

         RSIx = (RSI(14));

         ROCx = (ROC(C, 14));

         RestorePriceArrays();

      }

   }

RSIn = RSI( 14 );

ROCn = ROC(C,14);

Filter = 1;

Buy = 0;

AddTextColumn(Name(),"Name",1.0);

AddColumn(RSIx,"RSIx",1.2);

AddColumn(ROCx,"ROCx",1.2);

AddColumn(RSIn,"RSIn",1.2);

AddColumn(ROCn,"ROCn",1.2);

 
Notice the 0.00 for RSIx for DJ-30 is the values for RUT-I--the thing is offset and I can not figure out why or what is causing this to be offset.
The i in the StrExtract command is supposed to be zero based, but the RSIx array is getting switched (really offset) somehow.
There are only two symbols in the Watchlist.  The first symbol in the Watchlist is RUT-I, while the second is DJ-30, so the order printed is reversed also.

While you may not be that interested, I am attempting to modify some code that FredT gave me here where I wanted to get the ordinal rank numbers for symbols based on an indicator's value.  Fred's code produced this just fine for the last date in the From-To Range.  I would like to modify the code approach to calculate Rank Ordinals for each Bar, and this modification was a step towards trying to accomplish that.  But seeing the unexpected result has me stopped.
 
Anyone care to speculate on what is going on?
 
Thanks,
 
Ken
