I have a .afl file that creates/loads a static variable with a numeric
value(initialized to zero).
When I execute a second .afl file, I do an 'include_once' of the
first.afl file. During execution of the second file, I do a
'staticvarget' and load the value into a regular variable which is
then incremented. A 'staticvarset' is executed to load the new value
back into the static variable.
I thought this would work, but it doesn't. Using _Trace, I can see
that the initial value is retrieved and incremented from the static
variable. But, the incremented value doesn't appear to be making it
back into the static variable. On the second pass, the same value is
pulled and incremented.
Guidance will be appreciated.
if (Buy[BCnt])
{
PrevSig=BarsSince(Sell);
CntBuys=StaticVarGet("BuyCnt");
_TRACE("CntBuys "+CntBuys);
CntBuys++;
StaticVarSet("BuyCnt",CntBuys);
_TRACE("BuyCnt "+StaticVarGet("BuyCnt"));
IIf(Close>Ref(Close,-1),UpFlag=1,DnFlag=0);
}
Debug output...
[3556] CntBuys 0
[3556] BuyCnt 1
[3556] CntBuys 0
[3556] BuyCnt 1
[3556] CntBuys 0
[3556] BuyCnt 1
