ROUND() rounds numbers to the nearest whole number, the documentation is a bit poor, since it shows only the rounding of 9.60.

I tested this fake strategy (one buy instrution is necessary to be executed) with returns wit no addiotion, adding 0.9 and 0.4, both with positive and negative values, in case you want ALWAYS round to the greatest or to the smallest whole number:

//                             returns
//                       +0.0   +0.9   +0.4

//a = round(2.0 + 0.4) //  2      3      2
//b = round(2.4 + 0.4) //  2      3      3
//c = round(2.5 + 0.4) //  3      3      3
//d = round(2.6 + 0.4) //  3      3      3
//e = round(2.7 + 0.4) //  3      4      3

a = round(-2.0 + 0.4) //  -2     -1     -2
b = round(-2.4 + 0.4) //  -2     -2     -2
c = round(-2.5 + 0.4) //  -3     -2     -2
d = round(-2.6 + 0.4) //  -3     -2     -2
e = round(-2.7 + 0.4) //  -3     -2     -2

GRAPH a AS "a"
GRAPH b AS "b"
GRAPH c AS "c"
GRAPH d AS "d"
GRAPH e AS "e"

Hello,
I know this topic is old but it could be helps users like me who was affected by that issue.
I would like to get only the integer without decimal, and without a round to superior integer when my value is above 0.5

So I’ve created this code to get only the integer.

n= decimal number

IF round(n) > n then          // Round(n) should return 2 in case of n = 1.53.         // if 2 > 1.53
n = n - 0.5                   // We substract 0.5 to be in lower round decimal         // 1.53-0.5 = 1.03
n =  round(n)                 // We can make a round of the new n                      // round(1.03) = 1
ENDIF

Have fun 🙂

Thx Nicolas, I’m still on v10.3.
I’m glad to learn that PRT has solved that for new version 🙂
