Calculations with ints

[tonynt]

Hello,

I have to ask about calculations with integers. I have changed in my indicator from eg if( Vol1[0]>Vol1[1]*1.05 to if( Vol1[0]>VOL1[1]*(1+(volbar1/100))) so that I can change the value "05" in the parameters and not in the code. But with if( Vol1[0]>VOL1[1]*(1+(volbar1/100))) I dont get correct results. What I am doing wrong here? Sorry if I have an issue on my end with maths.

Thank you!

Hello tonynt,

When you say the result is wrong, what specifically is happening vs what should the result be? That would help to isolate what part of the calculation is going to need changed.

In what you provided you are using ints so if you mean the remainder is missing you may need to stop using ints and use doubles. That could be as simple as tagging a d at the end of the number or adding a remainder like 1.0:

(Vol1[0]>VOL1[1]*([B]1.0[/B]+(volbar1/[B]100d[/B]))

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dot...-numeric-types

In the first syntax you provided you used *1.05 which is a double and 1 would be an int so that is a difference. You also added some additional code to the second syntax (1+(volbar1/100). You could likely make use of a print to see what values are actually being calculated to get an idea of what to do next:

Print(1+(volbar1/100));

Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.

Hello,

thank you for your reply. With doubles it works, bothering that I didnt think on that.

Best regards
