efs and decimal

[luca73]

Hi, I have this problem I can not solve: I created the indicator, which should replicate the ATR, he rounded the last decimal, while the eSignal not. How can I fix? I need decimals.

function preMain() {
setPriceStudy(false);
setStudyTitle("Average True Range 2");
setCursorLabelName("Average True Range 2", 0)
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue,0);

}

function main() {
var xATR        = atr(15) ;
var STPL        = xATR;

debugPrintln(xATR); 
return ( STPL );

}

You can resolve it without the need of any coding. Set the Format you want (up to 6 decimals) in the Edit dialog for the study
As an aside I am not sure why you create and then return another variable (ie STPL) just to assign to it xATR. You might as well just return xATR.
Also to make the formula more efficient you should initialize the atr() study once only either at BARSTATE_ALLBARS or within an initialization routine of your choice. Search the forum and you will find many examples of this as the topic has been covered at length before
