RE: Question: Validating number of data points..

["Pang, Eddie" <epang@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks Bob,

I really appreciate the reply.
I'll work with this :)

What happened is that i created a simple radarscreen indicator that
calculates the 50day closing average.  Maxbarsback set for 55 days.
All my stocks on my watchlist has over 90days worth of data, except 
1 stock which has 35 days worth.

For some reason radarscreen still calculates the 50 days average on the
stock that has only 35 days worth of data, ofcourse with inaccurate
results. 

I'm just trying to force a blank into that slot if there is not 
sufficient amount of data.

I don't quite understand what you are trying to do but you might find
this useful.

    if Currentbar = 1 then begin
       NDays = LastCalcJDate - DateToJulian(Date);
    end;

The variable, "NDays", will contain the number of days in the data
from CurrentBar = 1 (which is the first bar after the MaxBarsBack
interval) to the last bar on the chart.
