Hi,
How can one know the first bar and last bar from the MS itself. If this is not possible, can we get in in the dll
Thanks

I'm not sure about in MetaStock, but if you pass the data to a DLL, the first bar is the first in the array and the last bar is the last in the array.
The array will tell you how many bars it has so you can grab whichever you want.

The first bar loaded on a chart or for an exploration or system test can be identified with..
Cum(1)=1;
The last bar loaded on a chart or for an exploration or system test can be identified with..
LastValue(Cum(1))=Cum(1);
Variations on these expressions can identify almost any numbered bar you care to find.
{Bar Count}
Cum(1);
{Bar Count Reversed}
LastValue(Cum(1))-Cum(1);

hey roymadhavi.... your question can be taken several ways..... so let me throw this in also.... right click on the dates on the botom of the chart.... choose x axis properties.... the dates , first, last, displayed and loaded will be shown.... my charts are loaded maxed out so it should always show the first and last bars available .....h

Hi Roy
Yes. Most functiions and expressions are completely interchangable between different MS tools. There are only about 6 exceptions that I can think of, and no tool has more than two unique functions. For example, Input() is unique to the Indicator Builder.
