Array Out Of Range error on my custon indicator at line "BU[0]=BU[1]-BU[2]/3.414+(1/3.414)*Close[0]; "
this is the code that I've translated in an indicator for mql4, but I get the error from the array range

I do not see your local arrays (BU[], PB[];) getting a size before being used.

I do not see your local arrays (BU[], PB[];) getting a size before being used.
now I've changed the code as follow, but no output if I set the arrays to value 31, the output is a fixed flat line that doesn't change.
What about the use of the method resize? I've also doubt for the ArrayMinimum ArrayMaximum methods use

IndicatorBuffers() is ? ?
You are creating an Indicator so you use buffers not arrays, Buffers are series automatically so you don't need ArraySetAsSeries() for the buffer . . .
double BU[31]; double PB[31]; : BU[0]=BU[1]-BU[2]/3.414+(1/3.414)*Close[0]; : PB[0]=MathAbs(BU[0]-M);You only set BU[0] never any other element. If it was a buffer then the values would shift on a new bar. They're arrays so they don't.

Dear All,
after a deep reading of the MQL reference I've started to program and translate an existing indicator from another system (realtimepro)
This indicato get an ok from the Compile, but fail when attached to a chart.
the fail message is Array Out Of Range, and from the debugger I see is at the line of this assignment:
BU[0]=BU[1]-BU[2]/3.414+(1/3.414)*Close[0];

this is the full code and I'm trying to find the error, can you indicate me what to search ?
