Your guess is correct.This closing price is a result of several 
splits,so I  manualy edited the price to 27.00 and the custom 
indicator worked this time.

The company is Sabic;its listed on the Saudi exchange.

Thank you for your help

price is an approximation to 4 decimal places but NOT exactly equal 
to 27.6418. This can happen when prices have been adjusted for a 
dividend etc. Open the data for that bar and I'm sure you'll find 
that there are 1 or 2 extra decimal places. You might need to find a 
less exclusive check to pick up this bar.
