Hello,

I try since some days to learn to program with the metaeditor in MT4.

But I dont have success with my first indicator.

Please can someone have a look on following code what is wrong.

Result should be : on every new candle should print a number 1,2,3..... íf it close under the HighestHigh of 5 periods.

Im desparte

Thank you for answers
