Cup and handle Help!

[Argo]

Hello,

I found an AFL (in Amibroker) and a correction for "cup and handle", but something is wrong. It is said "warning 505. Division by zero. Divisor array at [1] is equal zero." Can someone help me, what is wrong, how can I correct it?

Thank you

// Cup and Handle exploration written by Jerry Tyliczka

//
// This code calculates the Alpha, Delta, Beta and Gamma values
// but they are not used in the filter criteria as specified
// by the article which this code was based on.
//
// Look for additional changes as I tweak the below code.
// I will also include Scan feature and Backtesting in future release.

MinPrice=20;
MinVolume=100000;

//Left side of Handle formation can occur anywhere from 2-25days - look at the
//last 25 bars AND get the number of bars since condition met.

LH=HHV(Close,25); // Highest close past 25 days.
BLH=HHVBars(Close,25); // Tells us # of bars that have past since high reached.
//Used to determine Lowest bar.

BH=LLV(Close,BLH); // Lowest close since the highest value was reached/
BBH=LLVBars(Close,BLH); // number of bars that have past since lowest value.

NBLH=BLH-BBH; // this is the number of bars in the formation of the left side
//handle. NBLH must be atleast 2 to be a valid handle formation.

// Now lets get the cup formation. Cup formation can occur anywhere from 23 to
//145 days. The left side of the cup can be from 20-120 days AND the right side
//can be anywhere from 3-25 days.

// get the right side of the cup(low).

BC=LLV(Close,BLH+25); // look at 25 bars since the left side of handle.
BBC=LLVBars(Close,BLH+25);

// get the left side of the cup.

BLC=Ref(HHVBars(Close,120),BBC*-1);
