Hi,

Can anyone please correct the zero divide error that happens when the indicator is first loaded (remaining_bars == 0).

Thank you

Try this.
I think the problem is in the definition of remaining_bars (line 49), which allowed to use the non-existing bars that probably end up with Close=0, and then division with it.

Hi,

I did some googling about IndicatorCounted method and how it is programmed and I found an indicator that was coded for lookback. I changed this indicator to match that example indicator and now things are working fine.

Attaching the same for your perusal and hope it helps you too. Please let me know if the code correction is correct.

Thanks and regards,
Prem
