Ind. To calculate directly from 4H

[kabott]

Hi, im trying to make this indicator to calculate directly from a 4H chart


added the period:

Add(PeriodType.Minute, 240);

replaced the Close[0] for: Closes[1][0]


the checked for enough bars:

if ( CurrentBars[1] <= longLeg || CurrentBars[1] <= shortLeg) return;

but its not working, when i go down from the 4H to a smaller timeframe the indicator addapts to that timeframe, so i don't know what im doing wrong

here is the file: KBT_RubberBands_V1.cs

Hello kabott,

Thanks for your post.

Calculating the indicator value on BarsInProgress 0 may not give you the result you would expect, and I may suggest to calculate the indicator using the data series you added. (Calculate on BarsInProgress == 1) After calculating the values in BarsInProgress == 1, set the plots in BarsInProgress == 0.

For example:

if (BarsInProgress == 1) 
{            
    // Calculate Indi
}
else if (BarsInProgress == 0)
{
    MultiHigh.Set (SyncMulti * MultiW);
    MultiLow.Set (-SyncMulti * MultiW);
    MultiOsc.Set (multiOsc);
}

If this does not resolve your inquiry, could you further elaborate on the results you are getting and the results you expect?

I look forward to being of further assistance.
