Max bars forward error

Postby damageboy » 19 Oct 2006

I'm getting this weird error for the first time with freshly ported code from TS.

A dialog pops up sometimes saying:

Code: Select all

Max bars forward error. Bars reference value : -79.
What does it exactly mean?
I'm guessing something is doing something nasty such as:

Code: Select all

//Crash me
Value1 = Close[-79]
However if I run the above code it produces the following runtime error:

Code: Select all

Trying access at data to future. Bars reference value : -79.
Can someone in MC explain what causes max bars forward error I'm getting?

I believe I am getting this error (without a number). Its not a study I really use so have not had time to investigate.

Cheers,
nick.

The problem with
Trying access at data to future. Bars reference value : -79.
happens when you're referencing future data, i.e. data that has not arrived yet.
The
Max bars forward error. Bars reference value : -79.
is a bit trickier - it happens when you have set a Bars To The Right limit so the bars cannot be generated in the space where bars cannot be drawn.
