you can use writeval(vLastBar,1) to write as a normal number string
also better to use vLastDate = LastValue(Datenum()); than array signifier
vLastBar = LastValue(BarIndex());
vDate = DateNum();
vLastDate = LastValue(Datenum());
vCurrDate = Now(3);
_TRACE("| LastBar " + writeval(vLastBar,1) + " | LastDate " +
writeval(vLastDate,1) + " |
CurrDate " + writeval(vCurrDate),1);
