MRO in multi-timeframe

[motownlucas]

Why is MRO not yet supported in multi-timeframe strategies with a bars in progress parameter?

Please add this as a feature request.

Is there any work around for this? example of custom programming maybe?

Hi motownlucas,

I'm not aware the specific reason it can't be used in multiseries scripts. We have added your suggestion to our feedback list, assigned ID # 1061. Thank you for the suggestion.

Yes, can custom code a solution, likely using for loops to iterate through previous bars. The following snippet is a simplified version of MRO. It also works a little differently as it starts checking conditions for the earliest bars first.
The standard disclaimer: It's designed to get you started but has not been fully tested and NinjaTrader will not provide additional support for it.

if (BarsInProgress == 1)
{
myMROValue = -1;

for (int x = 3; x >= 0; x--)
{
if (Close[x] > Open[x])
myMROValue = x;
}
Print(CurrentBars[1] + " " + myMROValue);
}

Ok, thanks Ryan.
