BarsinProgress with Daily

[eurostoxx trader]

I am trying to add a daily time frame to my indicator (probably running on 5-15min bars) but for some reason whenever I call barsinprogress ==1, I never get any results. I am loading 20 days of data on the chart. here is the code

Add(PeriodType.Day,1);
......

 if (BarsInProgress == 0)
                 {
					Print("bars in progress == 0 " + Time[0]);  // this works

}

 if (BarsInProgress == 1)
                 { // for daily data

                     Print("Bars in progress == 1 " + Time[0]); // this doesnt work

                 }

any ideas

Hello,

Most indicators will not start calculating until after 20 bars have been calculated. Try expanding the number of days back to see if you get it to run then.

Also, the indicator will not run until all data is loaded.

Who is your data feed provider and also what is the primary data series?

I look forward to assisting you further.

its weird b/c I can get the 2nd time series to work if I change it to 60 mins 60, or 1440, but not a daily series.

I but in the contion

if (CurrentBar > 60)

but still I get 0.

I tried multiple instruemnts/data series and nothing. Load 50days worth of data.

Does it have anything to do with calling the

Add(PeriodType.Day,1);

is that the right notation

snap... I didnt have daily bars loaded. I thought that ninja made daily bars from min but I guess not. Problem solved thanks to kinetic. My data is on the other computer.. bah!

Thanks for the help though
