Hi guys!!

I'm trying to code an indicator, but every time it deducts the day's high from the lows it spits the result out in 4 digits. I'm wondering if there is some sort of work around it so it will approximate the 4th digit, so that it will have a 3 digit final string.

For example; 1.29795 - 1.28067= 1728 what I'm looking for is a way to have it approximated to 173, so from 4 digits to 3 digits

Thanks !!!!!!!

Hi pinchapip,

Here is a solution I always use.

PHP Code:
int DQ_ADJUST []  = { 0 , 0 , 1 , 10 , 1 , 10 , 100 };
int DQADJ;

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| init
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int init()
{
   DQADJ = DQ_ADJUST [ Digits ];
   return(0);
}

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| start
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int start()
{
   // Returns usual pips base value regardless of the number of digits

   // example 1
   double dVal = ((1.29795 - 1.28067)/Point)/DQADJ;
   int Val = dVal; // = 173
   
   // example 2
   double dVal = ((129.795 - 128.067)/Point)/DQADJ;
   int Val = dVal; // = 173

   // example 3 --- DQADJ (deci-quotes adjustment) can be used like this also.
   double Stoploss = Ask - SL*DQADJ*Point;
   
   .........

   return(0);
}
