How to trigger a formula once only?

[Patch227]

Is there any way to trigger a formula only once when the 5th bar is loaded ?

Thanks

A simple way to do that is to enclose the code that needs to be executed on the fifth bar inside a conditional statement that checks if getCurrentBarCount() is equal to 5 (see the link to the EFS KnowledgeBase article for the description of the function)

Thanks a lot Alex

I get the idea now. If you want some data out of a chart, try "get" first.
