Multi Time frame question

[ct]

Scenario:
If you have 2 time frames (the base chart and 1 added time frame). Two instruments but same time frame.

Question:
In what sequence do they fire?

If you use "Highs" and "Lows" what values are available from the other time frame when processing the second time frame. In other words do I save what I need from time frame [0] to use it when processing time frame [1].

They would fire in the order they were added, so primary first, then secondary and so on - the general concept if showcased here - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...struments.html

You can access all the values from all added series at anytime / BarsInProgress -

I have another question being linked to multiple time frames:

1.) What about adding a plotted Indicator to a strategy using secondary time frame!
Is it possible to do add an indicator plotted to a strategy using not the primary, but a secondary time frame? I found that its not allowed using BarsArray in initialize.

2.) (Off-Topic). Do you guys ever answer private messages/ questions being sent to you via this board?

Surely the first one to receive a tick which closes the bar would fire first?

Correct if different instruments are used, for the same the primary would update first as the tick got in.

PM's are answered on a discretionary basis as time would permit - for support request the forums or our support email is the quickest way to get a reply in general.

Correct BarsArray would not be supported in Initialize() - you could plot higher time frame indicator with the Strategy Plot samples though.

same instruments wasn't his question!
