So you get no BIP1 anywhere? Please remove all prints except for if(BarsInProgress == 1) and see if it at least prints something. It may have been flooded out by other prints?

The output is suggesting to me that BarsInProgress == 0 is not weekly. Please be sure your primary is truly running on a weekly time frame.Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

This has been a pretty confusing ordeal.
I put together this bit of code:
The output is in the attachment. I used minutes as primary, then day as primary, and mins second and week third, then day primary, week second and minutes third.Code:if (BarsInProgress == 0) { Print ("BIP = 0: "+BarsPeriods[0].Id+": " +Times[0][0] + "; 1 = "+BarsPeriods[1].Id+": "+Times[1][0]+"; 2 = "+BarsPeriods[2].Id+": "+Times[2][0]); } if (BarsInProgress == 1) { Print ("BIP = 1: "+BarsPeriods[0].Id+": " +Times[0][0] + "; 1 = "+BarsPeriods[1].Id+": "+Times[1][0]+"; 2 = "+BarsPeriods[2].Id+": "+Times[2][0]); } if (BarsInProgress == 2) { Print ("BIP = 2: "+BarsPeriods[0].Id+": " +Times[0][0] + "; 1 = "+BarsPeriods[1].Id+": "+Times[1][0]+"; 2 = "+BarsPeriods[2].Id+": "+Times[2][0]); }
It looks like the order of declaration makes no difference. Well, not really any difference. NT processes the primary first, and then the shortest interval, up until it bumps into the next longest interval (red cells), and then processes the shortest interval until it reaches the next longest interval again - and THEN updates the next longest (green cells); and then reverts back to processing the shortest.
It appears that the only time NT is able to access the minutes within the current day is the very first iteration - dependent upon the order of declaration. That seems weird: i.e., changing the order of processing after the first day.
Anyhoo - this is mostly about clarifying it for myself, but I am still going to try and access the minutes for the current test day - maybe by indexing backwards or something...
If something looks wrong here, don't hesitate to let me know. Or if you can think of an easy way for me to write this up. Thanks for the help.Attached FilesComment

Day Trading Fool,
Your screenshot was too small to be read.
This is how it works very simply:
BIP0 = Week
BIP1 = Day
BIP2 = Min
2/5 BIP0 Week update
2/5 BIP1 Day update
2/5 BIP2 Min 9:30
2/5 BIP2 Min 10:30
2/5 BIP2 Min 11:30 etc.
...
2/8 BIP1 Day update
2/8 BIP2 Min 9:30
2/8 BIP2 Min 10:30 etc.
...
2/9 BIP1 Day
2/9 BIP2 Min 9:30
2/9 BIP2 Min 10:30 etc.
...
...
2/12 BIP0 Week
2/12 BIP1 Day
2/12 BIP2 Min 9:30
2/12 BIP2 Min 10:30 etc.
When working from BIP2 you will have the correctly updated week and day contexts when series are added in the order described above.Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

Day Trading Fool, this is interesting behavior. Are there any errors in the logs? Would you mind sending the script to support at ninjatrader dot com attn 'ninjascript - thread 25594'? Thank you.AustinNinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

Hi there, I've verified what you're saying and I have sent it along for further analysis. I'm not sure where/why it isn't calculating every OnBarUpdate() like it should, but I have an idea for a workaround while we figure out what is happening.
}Code:// in vars, try these variable types: double, float, and decimal private double testValue; OnBarUpdate() { if (CurrentBar == 0) testValue = 2 / ema_period //not sure if that's exactly what you're using but you can adjust it if necessary if (BarsInProgress == 0) { testVar = Close[0] * testValue + EMA(Closes[1],10).Value[0] * (1 - testValue); Print(Time[0] + "; " + Close[0] + "; " + EMA(Closes[1],10).Value[0] + "; " + testVar); } }AustinNinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

Day Trading Fool,
To clarify, this is expected Microsoft C# behavior. You cannot divide 2/11 and stuff it into a double. You need to cast them as doubles to begin with if you are trying to stuff it into a double.
(double) 2 / (double) 11
or you could just do
2.0 / 11.0Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

Day Trading Fool,
Just try printing the components individually. You will see what I am talking about when you break down the math components and see exactly how it interacts with each other when you use improper types.Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment
