In NT6.5, what would be the equivalent to the NT7 code below? (Noting that CurrentBars[x] doesn't exist in NT6.5)

Here's an example using NT7:
if (BarsInProgress == 0)
{
if(CurrentBars[1] >=2)
{if(Closes[1][0] >= Closes[1][1])
{
Cls1up =1;
}
else
Cls1up =0;
}
}

There is no equivalent. You would just have to make and store your own variables that tracks CurrentBars of your various BIPs.

if (BarsInProgress == 0)
    CurrentBarsZero = CurrentBar;
else if (BarsInProgress == 1)
    CurrentBarsOne = CurrentBar;

Brett,
Any progress on the BarsArray issue with Gain Capital data? Is this a bug in the NT7 platform as you had speculated? If so, will the bug be fixed in the next beta, NT7 v20?


Also, I tried your suggestion (sent via Skype IM) to set CurrentBars[1] >= 20 but that just gave me an OnBarUpdate() error "You are accessing an index with a value that is invalid since its out of range."

See attachment for the code that I used.

Thx,
Lou

Lou, I will ask Brett if he has found anything. In the mean time, please try the other code with:

OnBarUpdate()
{
    if (CurrentBar < 20)
        return;
    else
    {
         // all your other code goes here, starting with
         if (BarsInProgress == 0)
         ...
     }
}
