Thanks a lot, but...
 
When we tell

AddColumn(H,"H",1.4);

AddColumn

(L,"L",1.4);

AddColumn

(mp,"mp",1.4);
to Amibroker, the answers are correct. (The right column below)
 
However, when we don't tell that way, rounding still seems to be incorrect.
We should format first and then round with excel...
I'll appreciate any additional comments.

Rounding is correct and user-definable. If you want 3 decimal digits - just tell AB this way:
 
AddColumn(mp,"mp", 1.3 );

Dear friends,
 
Amibroker seems to be rounding the results different than it should be. Below is a piece of the results.
The prices have two digits after dot. (h+l)/2 sometimes has 2 digits, sometimes 3 after dot.
 
Amibroker sometimes rounds the result up, sometimes down.
 
Ticker Date/Time H L (h+l)/2
Excel Calc.
(h+l)/2
Amibroker Calc.

YKBNK 25.02.2009 1.69 1.65 1.67 1.67

I may also send you the complete data if needed. You may also see easily with your own data with the following code:
 

MP= (H+L)/2;

Filter=1;

AddColumn

(H,"H");

AddColumn

(L,"L");

AddColumn

(mp,"mp");

 

Thanks in advance for your help.
