 Khamsina, 
  
I'm going to pick on you, but this is so common in 
most programming forums that I feel I need to finally say 
something: 
  
It's time-consuming to convert an algorithm 
when someone uses variable names like Y, SumSqr, Scale, etc.  I don't feel 
like helping if every line I'm thinking "what is he trying to 
do!!??" 
  
If you would like to get an answer more quickly (or 
at all!) please  
  
1) describe what this thing is supposed to do, then 
 
  
2) use variable names that clearly identify 
themselves, like CurrDayMaxPrice, TimeScale, BarCounter, etc. 
  
If you don't know anything about how this works or 
what it does, then no one else will bother to figure it out either.  If on 
the other hand you give a description in clear language, then name your 
variables clearly (and maybe, heaven forbid, include comments in your code!) 
then I'm sure someone will jump to help you out. 
  
Thanks.  Just had to get that off my 
chest.

  Subject: [amibroker] An indicator tricky 
  to code !!! (for AFL gurus) 
  
 
  Hi,
  I have been sweating on this indicator for 3 
  days (below, it's written  in EasyLanguage) and I just can't translate it 
  into AFL :-( .  Unfortunately, it far more difficult for me (loop, 
  array).
  Many thanks in advance for your valuable 
  help, Regards,
  Khamsina
 
  Inputs: Len(Numeric); Vars: 
  Mean(0), j(0), k(1.253314), SumSqr(0), Scale(0), MaxY(0),   MinY(0), 
  Rng(0); Arrays: X[100](0), Y[100](0);
  Mean = Average((h+c+l)/3, 
  Len); SumSqr = 0; for j = 0 to Len - 1 begin   X[j] = C[j] - 
  Mean;   SumSqr = SumSqr + X[j] * X[j]; end; Scale = 
  SquareRoot(SumSqr / Len); Y[0] = X[0]; MaxY = X[0]; MinY = 
  X[0]; for j = 1 to Len - 1 begin   Y[j] = Y[j - 1] + 
  X[j];   if Y[j] > MaxY then MaxY = Y[j];   if Y[j] < 
  MinY then MinY = Y[j]; end; Rng = MaxY - MinY; Estmtr = Log(Rng/(k * 
  Scale)) / Log(Len);
