Why do you want a loop to do this? Code supplied already does this in two lines much faster. > > x = BarIndex(); > > Plot(x,"x",1,styleStaircase);
Answer to your question anyway: bi = BarIndex(); qty = LastValue( bi ); for (i = 0; i < qty; i++) ... -- Terry -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of klaus_korneker Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2007 12:30 To: [email protected] Subject: [amibroker] Re: loop counter Thanks for the explanation. But how can i now create a barindex(counter) through a loop. Graph1 plots the barindex. I have tried to use (i = 0; i < LastValue(BarIndex()); i++ ) but this generates an error. Can you help ? Cnt = 0; for( i = 0; i < LastValue(BarIndex()); i++ ) { Cnt[ i ] = i ; } Graph0 = Cnt; Graph1 = BarIndex(); --- In [email protected], "Terry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > BarCount does not necessarily == LastValue(BarIndex()) > > This is because Amibroker uses "quickAFL" which means it only uses enough > bars to "get the job done".
