Posting this led me to this thread which describes a better method for timing:
Reading that thread led me to use code which does have the correct data. I also learned that a full day of ticks is needed to match the chart data (which makes alot of sense :-).
datetime barTime; // global variable if( barTime < Time[0] ) { // we have a new bar opened barTime = Time[0]; // keep the new bar open time wR_Current = iWPR(NULL,0,14,1); ATR_Current = iATR(NULL,0,14,1); Print(wR_Current, " ", ATR_Current); }
Thanks fbj for the explanation.

Good Luck

Thank you for the mql4 platform. It is fascinating but right now I am stuck.
I am Testing and cannot get the iWPR and iATR data from an EA to equal D1 %R(14) and ATR(14) charts. I want the EA to make a decision once per day at midnight.
This does fire once a day as intended but the data in the Journal tab output does not match the data on the %R and ATR indicator charts. Any advice?
Thanks,
