At TotalSpread += MarketInfo ( List[y], MODE_SPREAD ) ;
it gives me an warning ( possible loss of data due to type of conversion ) when I compile it with strict property . It should be correct as I read the documentation MODE_SPREAD is an Integer type . Why is this happening ?

You never try double instead of int ?

MODE_SPREAD enumerates as an integer, but you are using the function MarketInfo and that returns a double

Ohhhhhhhh, I see, now that make sense, how should I modify it to give no warning then ?

DoubleToInteger conversion ?

Edit : But there's no DoubleToInteger

I tried TotalSpread += NormalizeDouble ( MarketInfo ( List[y], MODE_SPREAD ), 0 ) ; but still got warning .... NormalizeDouble turn Double type to Integer type isn't it ?

Strange I thought NormalizeDouble and MathRound which should also give no warning like ( int ) .... Why is ( int ) giving no warning but NormalizeDouble still gives warning, mind to explain to me @.@ ?

NormalizeDouble and MathRound still return a double. Please check documentation before asking the same question for all functions

I'll stick to your suggestion with ( int ), seems like there's no other way of it ... Thanks a lot angevoyageur GumRai deysmacro

Perhaps you prefer this syntax :

  case 1  : TotalSpread += int(MarketInfo ( List[y] , MODE_SPREAD )) ;
