Hello everyone, i'm not very expert with Easylanguage. I don't understand what's wrong with this code by which to compare the date of tomorrow with that of a holiday.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Regards

Code

if  DayOfWeek(Date) = thursday  and (currentdate +1) =1180330   then
        nextBusinessDay = JulianToDate(DateToJulian(Date) + 4)

cactus1973,

what is the rational for using "currentdate" within this code?

what I would like to write with this code is: " if today is thursday and tomorrow's date is equal to 1180330 then nextbusinessday .... "

cactus1973,

currentdate is your computer's current date, it is not the date of the current bar. You can use Date instead and add days to it. However keep in mind that you are dealing with dates in EasyLanguage format.
Take a look at the built-in CalcDate function to find out how to add days to dates in EasyLanguage format.

ABCTG,

thank you for your suggestion, i've solved with the correction below :

Code

   if  DayOfWeek(Date) = thursday  and (CalcDate(date,1)) = 1180330  then
        nextBusinessDay = JulianToDate(DateToJulian(Date) + 4)
