Description

It boils down to AverageTrueRange which in MC.NET, does not accept a double.
The MC counterpart (AvgTrueRange) will accept 1.6 for example, as a value for AtrLength.

Hello,

The Length for an indicator is an integer value, representing the number of bars.

In MultiCharts, due to the absence of type control, such values are rounded down. If the Length parameter is involved in division operations, the results may be unexpected. For instance, with Length set to 13.5, only 13 bars will be considered, and the result will be divided by 13.5, which no longer represents an average value.

Therefore, if fractional values are needed for length fields, it is recommended to develop a custom version of the study.
