To use the MAX indicator for Bars Object other than [0], what is needed?

[dendy]

Hello,

I have a multi-instrument, multi-time frame strategy that I need to look into the secondary bars array to check a condition before entry.

I need to use a statement like this to add a condition for order entry:

SMA(High,10)[1][0] > MAX(SMA(High,10)[1][1],30)

The problem is that even though I have added the 2nd bars array, I cannot access it to use as a condition of entry for my strategy. The line above is designed to say that the SMA of the High for Bars Array 1 this bar must be higher than the Maximum of the SMA of the High for bars array 1, 1 bar ago and for the last 30 bars.

I get errors that say something about IDataSeries but I don't know how to use this method. I have looked it up but have been unsuccessful at making changes that result in an error free compile.

Thanks to anyone who can help,

dendy.

You likely want something like:

SMA(Highs[1], 10)[0] > MAX(SMA(Highs[1], 10), 30)[1]

Thanks Ray!!!

I believe that's it. I'll work with it for a while and see what happens.
