Seems that there is a lot missing, for it to work ok.
The Vars
No doubt transponing the Vars 1 and 2 into separate indicators will work, since
that the orginal Vars 3 to 9 printed below do not contain any errors.
Thus no doubt that the Vars 1 to 9 are correct. However now for the Indicator............
The Indicator
The expression that makes up the Indicator, is only calling the Var 9.
As such, will also be the only Var that makes up the Indicator-base for the calculation
formula of the COMHX01X09 Indicator.
And thus will be the only Var that is set out to do the Indicator's calculation work.
This expression will thus be the only Var in the Indicator that is calculated, and not the
any of the other 8 Vars, since that Var 9 is the only VAR that's being adressed {called},
and that therefore makes up the COMHX01X09 Indicator.
Remains that the other 8 Vars are thus useless {superflouis} put here and are thus
unnessecary added lines in the Indicator. They are NOT part of NOR do they make
up the COMHX01X09 indicator.
Thus unless you include them each by their own indicator-reference calls, then in your
instance, the Var 9 "is also" the COMHX01X09 indicator.
And like mentioned before in a prev mail, the " ; " separator is also put here only distracting
the program, eg since that another reference call {expression} is expected {but not present}.
