Errors in implementing DataSeries

[grd974]

Here is some code I borrowed from this forum :

private int AskTotCumulativeVolume;
AskTotCumulativeVolume = e.MarketDepth.Ask.TotalVolume(5);

this is the code I compiled and the error message I got :

private DataSeries averageAsk;
averageAsk = new DataSeries(this);
[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public DataSeries Plot0
{
get { return Values[6]; }
}
averageAsk.Set(SMA(AskTotCumulativeVolume, 10));
Argument '1': cannot convert from 'int' to 'NinjaTrader.Data.IDataSeries'
Plot0.Set(averageAsk);
Argument '1': cannot convert from 'NinjaTrader.Data.DataSeries' to 'double'

Please, let me know what I should do to have that SMA plotted ?

Try:

averageAsk.Set(SMA(AskTotCumulativeVolume, 10)[0]);
Plot0.Set(averageAsk[0]);

Hi Ray,

Sorry to let you know, I have one error left :

averageAsk.Set(SMA(AskTotCumulativeVolume, 10)[0]);
Argument '1': cannot convert from 'int' to 'NinjaTrader.Data.IDataSeries'

[NinjaTrader_Ray]

AskToCummulativeVolume is of type 'int' and not of type 'IDataSeries'. You can not pass into the SMA() method the variable AskToCummulativeVolume. You need to store this data in a DataSeries object.

Is it possible to create a DataSeries object that is not synced with historical data bars and use it like an array?

Nope. Just use e.g. an ArrayList.
