Re: [amibroker] Re: Tick Counter Code Not Working

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxxxx>]

Hello,

To "localize" static variable simply use the name that depends on ChartID.

For example:
StaticVarGet("TickCounter" +GetChartID());
StaticVarSet("TickCounter"+GetChartID(),++TickCount);

BTW: tick and minute counter will be available as a special AFL function
in next release.

Best regards,
