how to find out the timeframe of the bars

[junkone]

when i create bars with multitimeframes, how can i detect programatically what timeframe is my bar in?
for eg.
Add(Instrument, PeriodType.Minute, 5);
Add(Instrument, PeriodType.Minute, 10);

Now i use bars in progress to do the processing. Sometimes, i want to know programaticlaaly to check if the currentbar is in 10 minute timeframe or 5 minute timeframe. how do i do it?

junkone, you would use your BarsInProgress check for exactly this - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...BarSeries.html

This will give you the feedback which barsObject is calling the OnBarUpdate() method - please take note that the first added one will have an index of 1, the second an index of 2....

i was hoping there was a bar property that would state that its in 5 minute timeframe or ...,
