Yes, floating point calculations.

Bring a pillow. :)
You could do:
ans1 = 1.3941 - 1.3931;
ans2 = ((1.3941*1000)-(1.3931*1000)) / 1000;
_TRACE("Ans1 = " + ans1);
_TRACE("Ans2 = " + ans2);
though I don't know for sure that there aren't any precision pitfalls with this technique.

> I`m using this code on EURUSD trying to perform a simple subtraction but Amibroker is unable to give a precise answer, like for example sometimes 1.3941-1.3931=0.0009 sometimes =0.0010(correct) sometimes 0.0008 or other close value. dont get it its a simple subtraction, obviously has something to do with floating point does someone know what to do to get the right answer from amibroker?
