not only 159 bars.

you can set @ menu: File/Database settings ---> Number of bars.

my question is: how to count no of bar displaying on pane when you zoom the chart.

Hi Baby,

Try the following AFL:

_SECTION_BEGIN("VisibleBars");

SetChartOptions(0, chartShowDates | chartWrapTitle);

last = Status("lastvisiblebar");
first = Status("firstvisiblebar");

VisibleBars = Min( last - first, BarCount - first );

_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} ({{INTERVAL}}) {{DATE}}; {{OHLCX}}, Vol=%1.0f\n{{VALUES}}\nVisible Bars=%1.0f", V, VisibleBars));

Plot(C, "", colorLightGrey, styleBar);

_SECTION_END();


-Anant

this is only for caculation for graphic displaying, not for trade.

function GetVisibleBarCount()
{
lvb = Status("lastvisiblebar");
fvb = Status("firstvisiblebar");

return Min( Lvb - fvb, BarCount - fvb );
}
