Subject: Re: [amibroker] Setting the
variable type - Close minus Close
in AFL looping, or if you use script then you define the
array using [i] addons.
In script you also need to define the variables
within the script
before you use them.`
so for an array
XYZ =
C[0]; would define it as an array
XYX = 0; would define it as zero
unless given another value within the
loop script.
