Code to know close of range bars

[arbuthnot]

Hi guys

I'm quite experienced at NinjaScript now but I haven't found a way to do the following:

I would like to set up a strategy which sounds an alert (this bit I can do!) at the instant a new range bar starts forming. (Given the nature of range bars, these can occur at any odd time - I'd like to know when this happens.)

My guess is that a very simple snippet of code will do this. I've looked thru Help and haven't found anything obvious. I'm sure it's there.

Any help with this will be much appreciated.

Hello arbuthnot,
You can use the FirstTickOfBar function to trigger your sound alert.

if (FirstTickOfBar)
{
   //do something
}

Please refer to our help guide to know more about it
