    tjendra,

    The yellow error lines were what I was referring to. Unfortunately I have not reviewed your code indepth, but I did notice several calls of ChartControl in your indicator. Improper use of this object could be the source of the error. Ultimately you would have to debug it to see what actually does cause those errors though.

      Same Problem

      I am attempting to write a strategy that incorporates a single indicator. I have modified the indicator to create and expose a boolseries. I used SampleBoolSeries files for examples.

      I have read this thread and have remove references in the indicator to CalculateOnBarClose = true. Still I do not get the correct results when attempting to reference the boolseries. Like the other post, I have print statements throughout and the indicator appears to be setting the series correctly but when I use it in the strategy I get incorrect data.

      I am using an 11 range chart. The strategy add the modified indicator in code e,g. Add(). I have pretty much stripped this thing down. Not sure what else to do. I notice in this thread that support mentioned a known bug. What exactly is the bug and are there any further suggestions?

        Have you tried adding Update() calls in the Properties region for your exposed series?

          Put the Updates() in and now I am getting results but the opposite, e.g. true from indi and false in strat. This leads me to think of a coding error, cut and paste, etc but the code is too simple. I have looked at it over and over. See output window results from my debug code...

          I have attached the files if you have time to review. I have tried everything and read all I could find. Thanks

            netjms, perhaps any CalculateOnBarClose reference present in the referenced indicators? Have you tried removing it completely and then only setting this via the UI at runtime?

              reverse results?!

              netjms, If I understood correctly your issue and I am looking at your code you are getting reverse results because when you call the LongIndi method from your strategy you are returning shortIndi see below. I hope this helps.

              Kind regards,

              atata

              public BoolSeries LongIndi
              {
              get { Update(); return shortIndi; } // Allows our public BearIndication BoolSeries to access and expose our interal bearIndication BoolSeries
              }

              [Browsable(false)]
              [XmlIgnore()]
              public BoolSeries ShortIndi
              {
              get { Update(); return longIndi; } // Allows our public BullIndication BoolSeries to access and expose our interal bullIndication BoolSeries
              }
