Hi guys,

Anyone able to advise on how to resolve this coding to avoid 'Zero Divide' error :-

double upbar_upwickvol=((High[a]-Close[a])/avgvol);
double upbar_lowerwickvol=((Open[a]-Low[a])/avgvol);
double upbar_realbodyvol=((Close[a]-Open[a])/avgvol);

Thanking you in advance for the kind assistance.

Best regards.

Make like this :

double upbar_upwickvol=0.0; // Here 0.0 can be ANY number !!!
double upbar_lowerwickvol=0.0;
double upbar_realbodyvol=0.0;

if ( avgvol!=0.0 )
{ upbar_upwickvol =((High[a]-Close[a])/avgvol);
  upbar_lowerwickvol=((Open[a]-Low[a])/avgvol);
  upbar_realbodyvol=((Close[a]-Open[a])/avgvol);
}
Mine pleasure.

@StoneHeart

The High Close Open Low could also be 0, which means not enough history or the data for the pair is not there, iow's the pair is not on this broker.

So @EAcomparison

So open all the pairs you're trying to trade, and make sure you got enough data on the time frame you're trying to trade. Simply drag your charts back a bit.
