Need help with a simple indicator

[Eklavya]

Hi,

I need help with a very simple indicator. Been trying for hours to get it right. The indicator marks the inside bars that break in the direction of the day's bias i.e. long when the break is above days open and short when the break is below the days open.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!!

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{

bool priorBarLongDIBS=false;
bool priorBarShortDIBS=false;

if (FirstTickOfBar)
{
priorBarLongDIBS=false;
priorBarShortDIBS=false;
Print(CurrentDayOHL().CurrentOpen[0]);
}

if (High[1]<=High[2] && Low[1]>=Low[2]&& Close[0]>CurrentDayOHL().CurrentOpen[0] && Close[0]>High[1] && priorBarLongDIBS==false)
{
priorBarLongDIBS=true;
DIBSLong.Set(Low[1]-10*TickSize);
}

if (High[1]<=High[2] && Low[1]<=Low[2] && Close[0] < CurrentDayOHL().CurrentOpen[0] && Close[0]<Low[1] && priorBarShortDIBS==false)
{
priorBarShortDIBS=true;
DIBSLong[1]=High[1]+10*TickSize;
}
}

For some reason I am not able to access the value High[1].

If I use the below code, the output window does not print anything. The code does go into the if statement at every first tick of a bar but does not print the High value one bar ago.

Can someone help...

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if (FirstTickOfBar)
{
priorBarLongDIBS=false;
priorBarShortDIBS=false;
//Print(count);
Print(High[1]);
count=count+1;
}
}

Hello,

You need to do a CurrentBar Check:
