[amibroker] Re: Need help - "for" loop MACD() not incrementing in array

Steve:
     I tried several variations of MACD()[i] and MACD[i] but always receive an Error 30, Syntax error. I am wondering if I should just compute MACD and Signal on my own, and increment through the array?
     I need to keep track of an "up" histogram bar count day as it loops through the code. Is there another way to keep a counter without a for or while loop, and then clear it when a down day occurs?
Thanks
