Question with general function

[Maciek]

I just wanted to see what happens by using

Print("Input 0 is: " + Close[0]);
Print("Input 1 is: " + Close[1]);

Why does the code return:

Input 1 is: 1385
Input 0 is: 1384.5
Input 1 is: 1384.5
Input 0 is: 1384
Input 1 is: 1384.5
Input 0 is: 1383.75
Input 1 is: 1384
Input 0 is: 1383.25
Input 1 is: 1383.75
Input 0 is: 1382.75
Input 1 is: 1383.25
Input 0 is: 1383.75
Input 1 is: 1382.75
Input 0 is: 1383.75
Input 1 is: 1383.75
Input 0 is: 1383.75
Input 1 is: 1383.75
Input 0 is: 1383
Input 1 is: 1383.75
Input 0 is: 1382.5
Input 1 is: 1383
Input 0 is: 1383.5
Input 1 is: 1382.5
Input 0 is: 1384
Input 1 is: 1383.5
Input 0 is: 1384
Input 1 is: 1384
Input 0 is: 1384.25
Input 1 is: 1384
Input 0 is: 1384
Input 1 is: 1384.25
Input 0 is: 1382.75
Input 1 is: 1384

And so on... will it always go through each bar of data? are there ways to optimize this to be more efficient?

A data stream is called such because it flows through from beginning to end, just like the object in life that it is named after; a stream. If you do not want to process historical bars, you can use the Historical property in NT.
