Multi-Time Frame BarUpdate, Entries and Exits

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

David,

When using Calculate On Bar Close = false, Close[0] will give you the last traded price (current tick) regardless of the bar type you are using. This is because the bar has not technically closed and will continue to update as you receive new ticks in your range chart.

Ah,I see... one other thing, consider

EMA(BarsArray[2], 8)[0]

This will calculate the EMA 8 of barObject 2, my 20 minute bars. However it will calculate on the Close Price. How would I declare the same thing but for it to calculate on the Opening Price and declaring the BarsArray to use also?

Thanks

David

Hi David, to use the open price of the 20 min added series please use Opens then in your EMA call :

EMA(Opens[2][0], 8)[0]

David,

If used as an input for an indicator, you need to pass in the series opens.

For Opens, this is done with a single bracket [ ], not double [ ] [ ].

Example:
double myEMA = EMA(Opens[2], 8)[0]
