Getting correct indicator output

[Edward Kunafi]

Hello support team,
I have a purchased indicator that gives oscillator with 4 colours depending whether it is positive or negative, and expanding or contracting, similar to the Awesome Oscillator. The problem I have is that whereas AO give AO value beside AO positive and AO negative, this purchased indicator only give the 4 plots, only one is active at one time obviously. I need to use the output of that indicator in my own indicator. How can I tell at each bar close, which value of the four to use ?

Thanks.

Regards.

With purchased indicators sometimes you can find a non-plotting data series by trial and error. Take another indicator and reference your purchased indicator with some print statements.

Print("Series1 " + IndicatorName(Close, X, X)[0][0]);
Print("Series2 " + IndicatorName(Close, X, X)[1][0]);
Print("Series3 " + IndicatorName(Close, X, X)[2][0]);
Print("Series3 " + IndicatorName(Close, X, X)[3][0]);
Print("Series4 " + IndicatorName(Close, X, X)[4][0]);

Something like that (syntax may be off) and see what prints out.

Edward, I would suggest contacting the author of the indicator for the best method to capture the values.

Getting correct output - Solved

Hello,

I just stumble on the solution while working on dataseries. The help guide shows method to check for valid values, by calling DataSeries.ContainsValue(BarsAgo)
Just implemented and it works.
Thanks all for the response.
