Intraday Cumulative Values

[TrendTracker]

I am attempting to create an intraday indicator that will zero out at the beginning of each day and then plot a cumulative total of (High+Low+Close)/3. The following code plots the correct (High+Low+Close)/3, but it does not plot a cumulative sum. Can anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrong?


double cumulative=0;

if (Bars.FirstBarOfSession && FirstTickOfBar)
cumulative = 0;

cumulative=cumulative+(High[0]+Low[0]+Close[0])/3;

Plot0.Set(cumulative);


Thanks in advance.

If all of that code is inside a single function, then "cumulative" is a local variable, getting set to zero each time the function is called. Try making it either static or a class variable.

Hello,

If ETF idea does work, I would need to see your entire code block.

For example not sure what

double cumulative=0;


This is doing, Is this inside OnBarUpdate() (If So its the problem)or are you just showing my how you decared it in the variable section?

I look forward to assisting you further.
