Circular reference

  I’m trying to code a screener for demand and supply levels. I have successfully made indicators and I now want to screen markets.

  I have made two functions that I call and each of them works separately in separate screeners. However. When I try to merge these two screeners into one I get a circular reference.

  I have attached the code that works. But as soon as I uncomment the code underneath it gives me circular reference. I can’t figure out why.

   

  Demand and supply screener

  MaxCandleIterations = 200 CurrentCandleIndex = 1 ValueToReturn = -1 WHILE CurrentCandleIndex < MaxCandleIterations // Check for demand. IF (OPEN > CLOSE) THEN Demand, DemandBottom, DemandTop = CALL "Demand zone"[CurrentCandleIndex] // Buy signal here. IF (Demand = 1 AND LOW < DemandTop AND LOW > DemandBottom) THEN ValueToReturn = 1 BREAK ENDIF // Check for supply. ELSE Supply, SupplyBottom, SupplyTop = CALL "Supply zone"[CurrentCandleIndex] // Sell signal here. IF (Supply = 1 AND HIGH > SupplyBottom AND HIGH < SupplyTop) THEN ValueToReturn = 0 BREAK ENDIF //IF (Supply = 0 AND HIGH > SupplyBottom AND HIGH < SupplyTop) THEN // Just iterate one more candle to make sure demand isn't hiding behind. //Supply, SupplyBottom, SupplyTop = CALL "Supply zone"[CurrentCandleIndex + 1] //IF (Supply = 0) THEN //BREAK //ENDIF //ENDIF ENDIF CurrentCandleIndex = CurrentCandleIndex + 1 WEND IF (ValueToReturn > -1) THEN SCREENER (ValueToReturn AS "Zone") ENDIF

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48

  MaxCandleIterations = 200 CurrentCandleIndex = 1 ValueToReturn = -1   WHILE CurrentCandleIndex < MaxCandleIterations   // Check for demand. IF (OPEN > CLOSE) THEN   Demand, DemandBottom, DemandTop = CALL "Demand zone"[CurrentCandleIndex]   // Buy signal here. IF (Demand = 1 AND LOW < DemandTop AND LOW > DemandBottom) THEN   ValueToReturn = 1 BREAK ENDIF   // Check for supply. ELSE   Supply, SupplyBottom, SupplyTop = CALL "Supply zone"[CurrentCandleIndex]   // Sell signal here. IF (Supply = 1 AND HIGH > SupplyBottom AND HIGH < SupplyTop) THEN   ValueToReturn = 0 BREAK ENDIF   //IF (Supply = 0 AND HIGH > SupplyBottom AND HIGH < SupplyTop) THEN   // Just iterate one more candle to make sure demand isn't hiding behind. //Supply, SupplyBottom, SupplyTop = CALL "Supply zone"[CurrentCandleIndex + 1]   //IF (Supply = 0) THEN //BREAK //ENDIF //ENDIF ENDIF   CurrentCandleIndex = CurrentCandleIndex + 1 WEND     IF (ValueToReturn > -1) THEN SCREENER (ValueToReturn AS "Zone") ENDIF

  Let’s see if I can clarify something 🙂

  I have functions that I have created that both works fine and return 3 different values.

  I have no idea why this gives me circle reference as soon as I uncomment the row: //Supply, SupplyBottom, SupplyTop = CALL “Supply zone”[CurrentCandleIndex + 1]

  Anyone have any ideas at all?

  What do you mean by getting circular reference with the code please?
