Recursion crashes NT

[Chippy]

I'd appreciate it if someone can explain why the following code crashes NT. I posted this in General Development but haven't gotten any response. Maybe that's not the right place to post so I thought I'd try here.

My coding skills are pretty rusty. Can someone find the error in the recursive method HighIn().

private int firstRun=0;

protected override void OnBarUpdate(){
    if(firstRun<15){ firstRun++; return; }
    Print(HighIn(3));
}
private double HighIn(int bars){
    if(bars <= 2){ return High[bars]; }
    double value = HighIn(bars--);
    if(value>High[bars]){
         return value;
    }else{
         return High[bars];
    }
}

It compiles fine, but crashes NT when I try to run it in the strategy analyzer. I cannot find anything wrong with it.
