Hi calhawk01,

Try adding day bars as a second chart array.

Add(PeriodType.Day, 1);

Then call the secondary Close series.

Close[1][1] or Close[1][0] depending on your settings.

This should allow you to access the close - open gaps as far back as you like.

Note: I believe day bars are always RTH. Check and confirm.

Hello calhawk01,

I believe you want to use "CurrentBars[1]" for this so that you can compile it.

http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/currentbars.htm

int barsAgo = CurrentBars[1] - Bars.GetBar(new DateTime(Time[0].Year, Time[0].Month, Time[0].Day, 16, 00, 0));

But I am not sure what your secondary Data Series is. Note that if you want to view the RTH Data Series and have the PriorDayOHLC values for the RTH session you can change the Data Series to use the CME US Index Futures RTH.

Using Daily bars may also work but it depends on the Data Provider on what time they use for the their Daily Data. For example Kinetick uses ETH but CQG will use RTH.

Happy to be of further assistance.
