You'd have to use orthogonal projection of that point onto that curve, but how to do that

Hi, for(int i=barsBack;i>=0;i--){      bool MACrossedUp;      int event;      MACrossedUp=true;      event=10;} I would expect both these variables to initialize to their default values (false, 0) in each for loop iteration, because I declare them inside the loop. This is how other languages (like...
