getValue()

[clearpicks]

In function
getValue( barType [, nOffset] [, nNumBars] [,Symbol] )


When should I set nNumBars to a positive integer and when to a negative integer? What is the difference? Thanks.

Hi,

It all depends on how you want to order your arrays.

getValue("Close", 0, -6)
and
getValue("Close",-6, 6)

would both return the last 6 closes, but the first one would load the array most recent to last and the other would load it oldest to most recent.
