Hossein Zandi 2020.07.06 16:04 #2 double atr = iATR(_Symbol, PERIOD_CURRENT, 14, 0, 1); Neda shahbazi 2020.07.07 15:16 #3 William Roeder: The number is your buffer bar zero. hi you mean this: SetIndexBuffer(0,ExtATRBuffer); Neda shahbazi 2020.07.07 19:03 #4 Hossein Zandi: thanks alot that was useful for me New comment
hi every one
below is ATR indicator codes in MT4
I want to know that in above codes how I can find the variable that shows number, I point it in below image
Best Regards
