Detailed about Value

[hozman]

I'd decided saw what is the connection between indicator SMA and stratege SampleMACrossOver Call Value.Set(Input[0]) it is as method from C#( get, set,,, ) ?
If I think correctly, if in the indicator SMA executed command-line:

Value.Set(Input[0]);

, therefore in the strategy for the perpose of SampleMACrossOver, must be same line's like:

Value.Get(Input[0])

But nothing of the king in the strategy B]SampleMACrossOver[/B] don't using. Why?

Hello,

This would not be the correct syntax to get a value of an SMA in a strategy.

Value is a Indicator only term, this represents the plot at index 0.

NinjaTrader uses a Indexing system so you can refer to BarsAgo in the series of data you are referring to, the platform also uses a lot of collections so you will use the following items quite often.

To get the SMA's value from a strategy, you would instead use SMA(14)[0]

A strategy needs to make a call to the indicator by calling its name or:
SMA

This is followed by overload parameters or:
SMA(IDataSeries, Period)

This would be the Indicator, to get the value we need to choose an index from this collection series or a BarsAgo.
SMA(IDataSeries, Period)[BarsAgo]

The indicator sets the Plot at index 0 by using the term Value.Set() and stores its value for each bar to create the series which you accesses a value at a number of bars ago.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
