Re: Radarscreen Indicator

[Bob Fulks <bfulks@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is not real clear what you are looking for but I assume you are looking for daily values in an intraday RadarScreen using an array.

Something like this should be close:

Vars: HH(High), LL(Low), OO(Open), j(0);

Array: dOpen[1000](0), dHigh[1000](0), dLow[1000](0), dClose[1000](0),

if High > HH then HH = High;
if Low < LL then LL = Low;

if Date > Date[1] the begin
   j = j + 1;
   dOpen[j] = OO[1];
   dHigh[j] = HH[1];
   dLow[j]  = LL[1];
   dClose[j] = Close[1];
   HH = High;
   LL = Low;
   OO = Open;
end;

But remember that the daily closing value determined from intraday data will not quite be the same as the official closing price (since they manipulate the official price... :-) ).
