Close Price-ATR in array issue

New comment
 

I'm creating an EA which uses ATR & close price. I defined two array (one for ATR & one for close price).

How can i copy the formula (price-atr) into one more array.

void OnTick()

  {

   int count = 3;

   int atr;

   double atrarray[];

   atr = iATR(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,8);

   ArraySetAsSeries(atrarray,true);

   CopyBuffer(atr,0,0,count,atrarray);

   

   int close;

   double closearray[];

   close = iClose(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,0);

   ArraySetAsSeries(closearray,true);

   CopyBuffer(close,0,0,count,closearray);

   

   int nLoss; 

   double nLossArray[];

   ArraySetAsSeries(nLossArray,true);

Not sure what you are trying to do with your code.
I think that you probably need to use CopyClose().


Also

atr = iATR(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,8);

You should create the handle in OnInit, not OnTick.

 

Perhaps you should read the manual, especially the examples.

They all (including iCustom) return a handle (an int). You get that in OnInit. In OnTick/OnCalculate (after the indicator has updated its buffers), you use the handle, shift and count to get the data.
