Yes, High[bar] is current bar.

Thank you so much for your great help. My problem is solved now because of your help.
I just have another little question. I am a little confused about current bar and previous ones.
For example this code below is from three bars swing pattern wrote by popov. The link is here
http://forexsb.com/forum/topic/1199/thr … dalhoseny/

for (int bar = firstBar; bar < Bars; bar++)
{
    // Long trade
    if (Close[bar - 3] < Open[bar - 3] && // Candle 1 is black

In above code Close[bar - 3] is 4th previous bar?
So the high price of the current bar which is not closed yet would be
high[bar]?

You are not correct. Standard momentum subtracts previous price from current price, previous price is defined by period, meaning how many bars ago.

momentum[bar] = price[bar] - price[bar - period];

If one wishes so, the initial momentum value can be smoothed, this means making a moving average out of it.

 if (smoothing > 0)
momentum = MovingAverage(smoothing, 0, maMethod, momentum);

What I did was move your one line into for loop because you left array out in the open, hence your error. That's it.

If I understand you correctly, you have to change the same line to:

momentum[bar] = momen1[bar] - myminimum;

Another tip - momen1[1] is the second value of the array, not the last.

Hope this helps to steer you in the right path.

Thank you so much footon but i have a question. I wanted the momentum of first bar to be subtracted from minimum if last bars. I mean i wanted to have momentum = momen1[1] - myminimum; but the coded you provided gives momentum[bar] = momen1[1] - myminimum;
As i mentioned before, the usual momentum indicator subtracts current bar's momentum from moving average of last i.e 20 bar's momentums but i want to subtract current bar's momentum from minimum momentum of last i.e 20 bars.
Could you please review it again?

Now it loads up. But I think your calculation is off.

Hello,
First of all after posting this post I found that i should have posted it in Developers Forum so please transfer this topic to Developers Forum if its needed.
I decided to make a custom indicator from momentum indicator for an experiment but i faced some errors in coding it. I know probably my custom indicator is not useful, but i need it so please help me to fix the cide.
I attached the code. Most parts of it is the main momentum.cs file but i just added some lines to it. My changes start from line 111 and ends to line 133.
The usual moment indicators takes a moving average from (price[bar] - price[bar - period]) but i want to only substract the price of first bar, i mean price[1], from minimum value of all other bars. I exactly mean this: price[1] - minimumprice[1 to period]. For examplke if there is 10 bars, i want to have this:
price[1] - minimumprice[1 to 10]
My code has this error.
ERROR: "Momentum" compilation failed.
Line 133 Column 16: Cannot implicitly convert type 'double' to 'double[]'.
Please help me to fix this issue.
I attached my customed code. (not important but I also changed the indicator name to mymomentum to avoid facing problem with this).
Thanks a lot in adavnce for your help.
