Swing(3).SwingHigh[idx] sometimes returns a value that is not plotted. I assume this is because the Swing high is not yet validated and sometimes price continues to climb and the SwingHigh is never plotted. How can I get the values that are showing on the chart? I have tried using Swing(3).SwingHighBar(0,1,100) , but it also returns values that never get plotted because they get broken by a new high. Thanks, Tony

Swing Plotted Values
I have spent an extraordinary amount of time trying to figure this out. I hope someone can help me. I am trying to get the plotted values of the Swing indicator.

Tony, there would be an expected difference of what's plotted at a specific time visually on the chart by the swing indicator vs what could be accessed programmatically at that time, that's due to the nature of the swing indicator which will update as new price info is seen realtime - therefore more a visual tool helping traders to identify the current swing structure.

Thought due to its nature it can be challenging to work with, the values could be accessed, however likely not at the time you would expect them to when comparing to the visual directly plotted outcome of the main indicator.
What could be accessed is the # of bars ago the swing value was found for a given instance and at which price level this occurred.

I will take the Swing Indicator and create a custom indicator and try to store the plotted values in a new data series. I am a professional C# programmer, but not much experience with NinjaScript. I guess I know what I am doing for Easter
.. Thanks for the help
