Last X candles worth of values missing

mt4 counts up!!

[0] is the actual bar, [1] the previous, [2] is...:

 M5    = ((Close[i]-Close[i+5])/Close[i+5])*100; 

It is that simple and btw it's all in the editor's reference, just press F1.

Thats what I thought however if I change it to + to count up then I get nothing outputted to screen?

#property indicator_separate_window          // Draw in separate chart

#property indicator_color1 clrBlue           // Color of the 1st line

My crystal ball just has told me that you probably have an error message in the experts tab:

Can you imagine why?

This part is wrong:

 Counted_bars=IndicatorCounted(); // Number of counted bars
   i=Bars-Counted_bars-1;           // Index of the first uncounted

At its first pass Counted_bars==0 => Close[i+5] => Close[Bars-0-1+5]! ok?

Arghhh!

thats great, thank you for your help guys.
