Not immediately apparent what is wrong.
Cannot follow what all the different variables are doing.
So what I would do is put a comment immediately before the
ExtBufferLow [1] = (k-LC1) ;
to see if your code is actually reaching that point.
If it is then you would need to check what 'k' and 'LC1' are actually returning at that point.

Hope that helps a little.

should your array ref be [i] and NOT [1] ?

Ignored

 
 
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)
{
high[i] = ObjectGetValueByShift("HL_1",i);
low[i] = ObjectGetValueByShift("LL_1",i);
}

Sorry then no immediate ideas.

Have you checked that you have not somehow attributed another value somewhere to ExtBufferLow or reset it to '0' or indexed another buffer to that array?

Are you sure it is the array that is wrong and not the iCustom() ?

try getvaluebyshift........ your probably huntin "HL_1" and "LL_1".....h

Inserted Code

 
 
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)
{
high[i] = ObjectGetValueByShift("HL_1",i);
low[i] = ObjectGetValueByShift("LL_1",i);

You need to declare 4 buffers not 2 !!!!
