BarsArray

[finnbjurvoll]

Just a question on how to do barsArray on numeric values. I.e a macd:
MACD(BarsArray[1], 12, 26, 9)[0] < 0)

The 0) will be calculated from the current timeframe if I understand this correct. How do I add a different timeframe to a numeric value?

Hello Finnbjurvoll,

Series are added in the Initialize() method. You can see a sample with Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Strategy > SampleMultiTimeFrame.

Thank you Ryan, but I'm not sure if you understood my question. Maybe I missunderstand, but you are only adding the period type in the Initialize()? I have no problem adding the period to a indicator, the problem is how to add it to the numeric value? ex:

protected override void Initialize()
{
Add(PeriodType.Minute, 30);
}

and the condition:
if( MACD(BarsArray[1], 12, 26, 9)[0] < 0)
{
Do something
}
--------
When I trade a 5 minute chart, the macd calculation will be from the 30 min, right? The problem now is that the zeroline will be calculated from the 5 minute tradingchart. So what I'm saying in the code is when the 30 minute macd is above the 5 min zeroline it will do something. Maybe this is a very dumb question, but I don't understand how to add that 30 minute timeframe to the numeric value.
Hope I'm not bugging you to much here
