129.302 - SQX Produces 0 values for values that AlgoWizard cannot accept as 0.

This causes strategies to break in MC. One strategy of mine was produced with a profit target of 5.5x ATR(0). Once I changed the period of the ATR from 0 to 1, everything worked fine. But was like finding a needle in a haystack and needs to be fixed for all parameters because when I built the strategy, my minimum ATR period was 5. Currently, these values can cause very cryptic divide by 0 errors in MultiCharts that make it difficult to pinpoint what exactly is wrong.

Hi Kainc,

Here you go

this is a tricky bug, because it happens randomly. I added a check for these 0 vaues, hopefully it fixes it.

Is there a constraint to make sure that the output value stays within the user-defined range? I couldn't tell if the 0 value just pops up out of nowhere or if it's part of a larger problem where the user can define a range of say 5-20 for an ATR period and the output value can be 3 which is below the minimum.
