[amibroker] Re: Passing a variable into the Ref() function

["dbwyatt_1999" <dbw451@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Variables are arrays in AB, so Ref(Close,-x) probably would not 
work.  If you have a predefined set of values for x, you could use 
iif statements:

myValue = iif(x==5, Ref(C,-5), iif(x==10, Ref(C,-10), iif(x==15, Ref
(C,-15),Null)));

However the best way to access variable array index offsets is to use 
a loop:

i = 0;
x = Param("x",10,1,100,1);
for (i=x; i<BarCount; i++) {
  myValue[i] = Close[i-x];
}

Regards,

David
