UserDefinedMethods - calling Multi-time frame

[ij001]

Hi there

I want to use the same bar objects in the UserDefinedMethod file so my indicators can access the methods.

Am I able to do that without Initialize to Add the Bars Object?

I have never tried because of that and keep adding the same bar objects to different indicators...

Hello IJ,

Initialize() will not be ran inside of the UserDefinedMethods by default. You may want to create a custom method that takes a variable that you can pass the method and then have it do some calculations and then return a value for example:

public double ThisIsATest(double testVariable)
{		
	double returnVariable = testVariable * ATR(7)[0];
	return returnVariable;
}

Thanks JC.

Is there an example somewhere with bar objects that pass in a method?

That would work then in the indicator it can initialize the bars object??

1. In your UserDefinedMethods file, create a method to add the Bars Series.
2. Call the method in the Initialize() method of your indicators.
