Help ProRealTime code to MQL4

[Travelfrog]

  I am new to MT4 and I am trying to convert some code from ProRealTime to MT4

  I get compile warning "possible loss of data due to type conversion". Can't seem to find how to correct the code.

// c1 =abs( high - low)
   double c1=MathAbs(High[0]-Low[0]);
   // c2 = abs( close[1]-high )
   double c2=MathAbs(Close[1]-High[0]);
   // c3 = abs ( close[1] - low )
   double c3=MathAbs (Close[1]-Low[0]);
   // c4 = max(c1,c2)
   double c4=MathMax(c1,c2);
   // c5 = max(c4,c3)
   double c5=MathMax(c4,c3);
   //atr =Average[P](c5);
   atr =iMA(NULL, 0, Nbr_Periods, 0, MODE_SMA, c5, 0);

Your iMA call is not correct, you misunderstood the parameter applied_price. You don't have to provide a price (double), you have to select which price will be used.

Can anyone help with coding an EA across from Prorealtime to MT4 or MT5 ?
