Hello All,
I would like to create an object that knows how to print itself (it's attributes) on the primary chart when it is created. My object, when called, does not have/refer-to the same CurrentBar value as it's parent.
Here is sample code that reproduces my problem.
and the output:
From OnBarUpdate() CurrentBar is:25
Why is this not 25 as well??
From MyClass() CurrentBar is:0
Thank you for any guidance you can provide,
-Billy
