Why does printing this give me random number ?
Why does printing this give me random number ?
04 Jan 2024, 22:20
can someone help me understand why printing the result of this will give me a different number every tick with a wild variation ?
double HighValue = BarsDaily.HighPrices[barsDailyIndex];
double LowValue = BarsDaily.LowPrices[barsDailyIndex];
double CloseValue = BarsDaily.ClosePrices[barsDailyIndex];
double PPValue = (HighValue + LowValue + CloseValue) / 3;
double S1Value = (PPValue * 2) - HighValue;
double S2Value = PPValue - (HighValue - LowValue);
double S3Value = LowValue - 2 * (HighValue - PPValue);
double R1Value = (PPValue * 2) - LowValue;
double R2Value = PPValue + (HighValue - LowValue);
double R3Value = HighValue + 2 * (PPValue - LowValue);
var currentprice = Bars.ClosePrices[index-1];
var PPPips = Math.Abs((currentprice - PPValue) / Symbol.PipSize);
var S1Pips = Math.Abs((currentprice - S1Value) / Symbol.PipSize);
var S2Pips = Math.Abs((currentprice - S2Value) / Symbol.PipSize);
var S3Pips = Math.Abs((currentprice - S3Value) / Symbol.PipSize);
var R1Pips = Math.Abs((currentprice - R1Value) / Symbol.PipSize);
var R2Pips = Math.Abs((currentprice - R2Value) / Symbol.PipSize);
var R3Pips = Math.Abs((currentprice - R3Value) / Symbol.PipSize);
Print(PPPips);Replies

Hi there,
The close price changes on every tick therefore it is expected that the results would change. Can you explain to us what your expectation is?
Best regards,
Panagiotis
No I understand why it would be different at every tick but the way its different makes I unusable , I expect the numbers printing to be somewhat close to each other instead they are not, they are widely different with it even printing “NaN”

It's obviously a logical bug on your side but it's hard to tell by a code snippet. We are just guessing. You would need to provide more information in order to get more help. Post at least the following
- The full indicator code
- Screenshots of the values you get.
- The values you would expect to get instead and an explanation why you expect them.

What I'm trying to print out is the difference of pips between two prices , which is PPValue and the currentprice which gives Pppips but since it prints out like this I cant really nail down why theres a huge variance in the values printed

Hi there,
The close price changes on every tick therefore it is expected that the results would change. Can you explain to us what your expectation is?
Best regards,

No I understand why it would be different at every tick but the way its different makes I unusable , I expect the numbers printing to be somewhat close to each other instead they are not, they are widely different with it even printing “NaN”
It's obviously a logical bug on your side but it's hard to tell by a code snippet. We are just guessing. You would need to provide more information in order to get more help. Post at least the following
- The full indicator code
- Screenshots of the values you get.
- The values you would expect to get instead and an explanation why you expect them.
What I'm trying to print out is the difference of pips between two prices , which is PPValue and the currentprice which gives Pppips but since it prints out like this I cant really nail down why theres a huge variance in the values printed

Hi there,

Best regards,
Panagiotis
No I understand why it would be different at every tick but the way its different makes I unusable , I expect the numbers printing to be somewhat close to each other instead they are not, they are widely different with it even printing “NaN”
It's obviously a logical bug on your side but it's hard to tell by a code snippet. We are just guessing. You would need to provide more information in order to get more help. Post at least the following
- The full indicator code
- Screenshots of the values you get.
- The values you would expect to get instead and an explanation why you expect them.
What I'm trying to print out is the difference of pips between two prices , which is PPValue and the currentprice which gives Pppips but since it prints out like this I cant really nail down why theres a huge variance in the values printed
Here is the full code :

Hi again,
The values you provided are not for each tick but for each bar since the Calculate() method is called for every bar for historical bars. At the moment I see nothing wrong.

Hi there,
I am a bit confused about what the issue is now. You said that the values do not make sense to you but they seem to make sense to. I have ask for an explanation of what exact value would you expect instead of the ones you see printed and how that value is calculated but you did not provide it (e.g. the value printed at 12:00 is 1 but I would expect it to be 2 because a, b, c….). It is hard to help you further without this information.

When I run this :
var currentprice = Bars.ClosePrices[index-1];
I just expect to get the value of the currentprice or the price of the bar before that but as you are saying its giving me the value of every single bar starting from bar 1 , I don't want that , I just want the price of the previous bar so that I can minus it with Something Like S1 and get a pip value which is the distance between the current price and S1

Hi there,
Then you can use the IsLastBar property to print the values only for the last bar.
