StreamWriter

Hello,
I have used the Streamwriter example and in general all worked fine, only the last bar on the chart ist not updated in the textfile.
Any suggestions
Thanks

Hi Lars,

This is likely due to your CalculateOnBarClose setting. When set to false, it will process script logic for the bar that's currently forming.

In my experience, it needs to be false to get the final bar on an EOD chart, too.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks ! In the Initializie section I have set it to false, but I checked the chart setting and this was on true. After changing it each tick of the bar was appended.
1) is the a setting where the initialize setting will overrule the chart parameter?
2) how does only the last acutal value will be written to the file. I assume the last entry must be overwritten each time the a new tick is coming or?
Thanks
Lars

The selection made in the GUI will supersede anything written in the Initialize method. When you write it in the Initialize() method, this determines what is selected in the Gui initially.

Yes, it will process logic for every tick, so this value is then continuously updated when new prices arrive.

What can i do to write only the last actual value of the bar ?

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

The last actual value can constantly change, so you could store it and only update when it's new.

Initialize the value somewhere else, maybe during the first tick of bar

if (FirstTickOfBar)
myDouble = Close[0];

if (myDouble != Close[0])
myDouble = Close[0];

Write myDouble to file rather than Close[0].
