It does not sound very scientific but I see strange things happening (which should not be able to occur) with the IBc as well that I can't explain. I got a faster internet connection and many of my problems have disappeared. But still strange things happen. Especially if Amibroker is in the process of backfilling data en the code below can not perform a calculation because there is not sufficient data. The software enters conditional statements that should not be possible.
