Multi Instrument Indicator

[2Look4me]

I want to call the High and Low values of indicator XYZ of instrument ABC.

Protected override void Initialize()
{
Add("ABC",PeriodType.Minute,1);
}

Protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
double XYZHigh = XYZ().TheHigh[0];
double XYZLow = XYZ().TheLow[0];
}

How do I reference ABC in the above OnBarUpdate for this to work?
Thanks in advance

I believe this is what your looking for

I just realised it was the indicator val you need not the high....

See here.

if you call your indicator as per normal but only in the correct BarsInProgress index then it will work.

I dont know if you can call an indicator from the added timeframe directly without being in the correct barsinprogress but i would be interested to hear if there is a way.

Here is an example

protected override void Initialize()
{
Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Orange), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot0"));
Add("$AUDUSD", PeriodType.Minute, 5);
Add("$EURUSD", PeriodType.Minute, 5);
}


protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if (BarsInProgress == 1)Print ("Atr for AUDUSD 5 min = "+ATR(14)[0]);
if (BarsInProgress == 2)Print ("Atr for EURUSD 5 min = "+ATR(14)[0]);

}

Hello 2Look4me,

Thank you for your post.

To reference the added bar series add BarsArray[1] to the indicator. For example:

XYZ(BarsArray[1]).TheHigh[0]
