Access Indicator variables from a strategy

[afshinmoshrefi]

I need to access variables in an indicator from a strategy. I have done the following in the properties section of the indicator:

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public double TxH1
{

get { return txH1; }
}

txH1 is a private variable declared in the indicator.
From another indicator when I access TxH1, I get 0 - value has not passed.
what am I doing wrong?

Hello afshinmoshrefi,

Thank you for writing in.

You'll need to call the Update() method within your getter to ensure the exposed variable is up-to-date.

For example:

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public double TxHt
{
     get { Update(); return txH1; }
}

For more information about the Update() method, please take a look at this help guide link: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...t7/?update.htm

Additionally, you can see this method call in action within our forum's "Exposing indicator values that are not plots" reference post: http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...ead.php?t=4991

Please, let us know if we may be of further assistance.
