SessionBreak- how to work with

[tonynt]

Hello,

I have added in my autoscripts "if(Bars.SessionBreak == true) {then reset variables}

But to my surprise the variables persists in the reset status then. Even when a condition is true to change value of a variable is persists with "0" and "false"

What am I doing wrong or how has to be used SessionBreak correctly?

Thank you
Tony

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

I could not really say what may be happening with what has been posted.

Are you certain the reset is happening before the variables need to be used again?

For this, I could only suggest to create a new empty script and migrate only the if(Bars.SessionBreak == true) logic into that new script to see what may be happening. If you could isolate a sample like this and provide it, I could certainly be of more help.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Hello Jesse,

thank you for your reply. I only can say that when I comment or remove the condition I posted the variables are working OK. My intention was to reset all variables with a new session. And I thought this will work with if Bars.SessionBreak== true.

I will find another way to do.

Thank you
Tony

When I work with data that I want to be reset at the beginning of a session, I use something like:

if(Bars.FirstBarOfSession)
{
  //Reset things here

}

On occassion I also use the other side when I want to collect values at the end of the session by inserting this near the end of my onBarUpdate loop:

if(Bars.LastBarOfSession)
{
  //Do something with my collected values
}

I am unsure if the Bars.LastBarOfSession is recommended to use? But I have used it for years w/o any problems that I am aware of.
