Hi Ron,
Thank you for the reply.
Take notice that i'm adding 1 to the previous value of a (in theory).
So, if in one bar the variable a is equal to 0, in the following bar
it will add 1 and a equals 1. After another bar, i will add 1 more
and a should be equal to 2, and so on. That's the theory as far as i
can understand MS.
In practice thing don't happen that way. It seems that MS Will not
consider the value of the variable that is plotted when the function
Ref() is used, it considers always the constant 0. I don't know why,
it doesn't make sense to me and it limits even more the MS Script.
I cannot use the function Cum() because my goal is not producing an
incrementing line. I just simplified my script so that i could
explain the issue to you. My goal is to translate a small program
from wealth-Lab Developer to MS. Unfortunately i think it won't be
possible.
Regards,
Jaime
