Why ArrayMinium not working?

New comment
 

Ok i have made this expert to get some numbers for another expert my make.

I can't figure out why array maximum works fine but array minimum does not .

they look the same to me ?

Can someone tell me what wrong here

thank you.

i am not sure what your trying to do.

 int h_index=iHighest(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,MODE_HIGH,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);
 int l_index=iLowest(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,MODE_LOW,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);
 
 Print("Highest High: ",iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,h_index));
 Print("Lowest Low: ",iLow(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,l_index));

can you explain what you are trying to do with the myarray?

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
datetime bartime;double movement,higher,lower;// global

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                                                                  |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
if(bartime!=iTime(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,0))
  {
   int h_index=iHighest(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,MODE_HIGH,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);
   int l_index=iLowest(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,MODE_LOW,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);

   double high,low;

   if(iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index])>iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index]))
     {
      high=NormalizeDouble((iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index])-iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index])),Digits);
     }

   else if(iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index])<iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index]))
     {
      high=NormalizeDouble((iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index])-iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[h_index])),Digits);
     }

   if(iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index])>iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index]))
     {
      low=NormalizeDouble((iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index])-iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index])),Digits);
     }

   else if(iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index])<iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index]))
     {
      low=NormalizeDouble((iOpen(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index])-iClose(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,[l_index])),Digits);
     }

   movement=NormalizeDouble((high+low),Digits);
   
   if(movement<lower)
    {
     lower=movement;
    }
    
   if(movement>higher)
    {
     higher=movement;
    }
   
   Comment("    RAG    ",movement,"Min value = ",lower,"Max value = ",higher);
   bartime=iTime(Symbol(),PERIOD_CURRENT,0);

what i was try to do is get the biggest and smallest size candle wicks separately for the top and bottom  in pips 

So the thinking was get value store it ,use array min ,max functions to get the values .

using math min,max because you don't know if the open or close will be the top or bottom value.  

then comment them out ,use those numbers in an ea as static value.

And after looking bit more i see that i'm not asking the right question in the code it  movement_top_tail= ma1+h_index; 

and   movement_top_bottom= ma+l_index;

so two values Two-dimensional array ?

but then do i need only the highest val of each

I'm think that the min val zero most likely .

thank you.
