Getting a value to who in DataBox

[funk101]

How do I do this? I have a function in my strategy that does a calculation, and I would like for it to show up in the DataBox. Do I have to create an indicator in order for this to happen? It's just a function. Point me in the right direction please.

The databox shows values on indicators series. So, yes you have to create an indicator, stuff your value into a data/plot series which then will be displayed in the data box.

Ok, this is my code generated from wizard. On my onBarUpdate() I have these lines of code:

double d = 0;

d = (((CCI(6)[0] - CCI(14)[0]) / (CCI(6)[1] - CCI(14)[1]))) * 100;

Value.Set(d);

Basically, just calculating percentage. I would like the value of "d" to show up in the DataBox. Right now, it's not working.

Did you add a plot in Initialize()?

Ok, it's because I'm trying to access the data one bar ago for this calculation. The logs say "index out of bounds". Check the code below. So, what does that mean for me? There's plenty of bars on the chart. Does that mean that the indicator does not have access to those? Don't understand.
