The incorrect output position of the text object created

[tao zemin.]

Dear all,

  I used the following code in my EA to create a text object at a position higher than the current bar's High.

    lastbar=curbar;
    return (true);
  }
  else return(false);
 return(true);
}


string CreateTxtObj(int shift, string txt,int fsize, int fcolor){
  double price=0.0;
  datetime time;
  string stime;
  static int objIDX=10;
  string objname="TXT";
  objname="TXT"+objIDX;

  price=High[shift]+(High[shift]-Low[shift])/2;//price >High[shift],  to make the text object created above the bar.
  time=Time[shift];
  if(!ObjectCreate(objname, OBJ_TEXT, 0, time,price))
    Alert("Error:ObjectCreate failed: ",GetLastError());
  if(!ObjectSetText(objname, txt, fsize, "Arial", fcolor)) Alert("Error:ObjectSetText failed: ",GetLastError());
  
  objIDX++;
  return(objname);
}


int start(){
  if(!IsNewBarbyTime()) return;
  if(Bars<100||IsTradeAllowed()==false) return;

  CreateTxtObj(0,DoubleToStr(MathMod(Bars,5),0),7,Red);

  return(0);
}

But the output of the text object is always lower than the position specified. ( No objectCreate failure err or ObjectSetText error was reported. )  As shown in the picture below. You can copy the code and compile it as an EA you will see the output during backtest....

May I know what is wrong with my code?Thanks a lot for your time and consideration.

You are drawing the Object on Bar 0 when the High and Low are not yet known,  draw it on Bar 1 instead.

Dear RaptorUK,

You definitely pinpoint the error I made! thank you so much!

Your object naming	static int objIDX=10;   :   objname="TXT"+objIDX;   if(!ObjectCreate(objname, OBJ_TEXT, ..   :   objIDX++;
Simplified, static removed	objname="TXT"+Time[shift];   if(!ObjectCreate(objname, OBJ_TEXT, ..
