This is either a bug, or I am not using the AC indicator method properly. Can someone help? double[] ac1= indicators.ac(instrument, strategyPeriod, OfferSide.BID, IIndicators.AppliedPrice.CLOSE, 5, 34 ,1); When I compare the values returned from "ac" they are very different from what shows on the chart for the same parameters. The attached strategy demonstrates this. If I use the "awesome" indicator instead, the values agree with the chart. Using the TestStrategy attached in "Visual Mode" will show the problem visually if you attach the ac indicator. Thanks

Hi,
In your strategy you use close price parameter for the AC indicator, please check if you use the same price in the graph.

We have double checked your code, and AC indicator value in the API match with the graph value. Please check the chart options in the Tools -> Preferences that filters in disabled, also be sure that you check the same time period in the chart and in the API, then run your strategy and compare strategy output with the last finished bar value in the AC indicator sub window values (Positive, Negative)
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further information.

I'm sorry, but I still can not get the AC results to match and I'm pretty sure I am comparing like for like. I've attached a few screen shots (using the historical tester in visual mode) that show the Awesome indicator matching, but the AC indicator not matching. Maybe you could take a look and see if you can spot what I am doing wrong? Cheers! Ian

Please choose tick data when you test your strategy, please assume attached file. Also be sure that period is equal in the strategy parameter and in the historical tester chart window.
