I found some errors. I forgot to call " #property indicator_buffers 3 " and "#property indicator_color1 Red". Now, there is a line, but it´s showing 0 all time. The problem is probably on the looping, but I don't have idea how to fix it.
Please, if you know how to correct it, let me know!
Thanks
Look at this and further
MMA=iMA(NULL,0,periodo,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
You never change your data.
limit=Bars;//-counted_bars; for(i = limit; i >= 0; i--) IMPETMMA=MMA_Buffer[i]-MMA_Buffer[i+1];
Open[Bars]... does not exist and MMA_Buffer[Bars+1]

Thanks.... I realize that too.. That is the original formula, but to solve this problem I multiplied for 100000. But, the indicator is instable, when I open it is different from when I wait for new prices. Do you know why this happens?
I tried to translate from Metastock, but until this moment it's not as good as the original.
cant say i had that problem when testing it.
for(i = limit; i >= 0; i--) { IMPETMMA=MMA_Buffer[i]-MMA_Buffer[i+1]; IMPETSMMA=SMMA_Buffer[i] - SMMA_Buffer[i+1]; DIVMA=MathAbs(MMA_Buffer[i] - SMMA_Buffer[i]); AVERIMPET= ((IMPETMMA+IMPETSMMA)/2)*100000; TDF= MathPow(DIVMA,1)*MathPow(AVERIMPET,3); NTDF=TDF/iHighest(NULL,0,MathAbs(TDF),periodo*3,0); FMIBuffer[i]=MathAbs(NTDF); }
The next problem is with this line
NTDF=TDF/iHighest(NULL,0,MathAbs(TDF),periodo*3,0);
This results in zero divide error. The third parameter in iHighest() needs to be an integer 0 - 5. You need another way to switch between types.

Thank you so much wabbit. You are the one that is well known for Metastock language skills, don't you?! I really appreciate your help. Thanks again.
Could you explain me better the difference between this line:
for(int i=0; i<limit; i++)
for(i = limit-1; i >= 0; i--)
To me it remains confusing this type of logic. This difference probably made my formula wrong.

I was trying to do the Flat Market indicator Formula, but there is an error in the formula and I don't know where, the result is that it's not showing any value. The code is bellow. Can you help me out with this?
