Error in Adding a next-time frame indicator into a stategy

[wolfcuring]

Hello Everyone,

In coding my strategy I wanna add an 50mins RSI to the chart, and I did the following code:

protected override void Initialize()
        {
                        Add(PeriodType.Minute,50);
			Add(HiLoActivator(length));
			Add(MyDM(dMPeriod));
			Add(RSI(BarsArray[1],rSIPeriod,rSISmooth));
			CalculateOnBarClose = true;
        }

But it does not work with the Strategy Analyzer, when I click on the strategy the parameters does not show up.

And when I delete the following line:

Add(RSI(BarsArray[1],rSIPeriod,rSISmooth));

it work all right with the Strategy Analyzer, anyone knows why is this happening ?

Hello wolfcuring,

Thank you for your post.

This is because the BarsArray cannot be accessed within the Initialize() method. If you wish to plot an indicator from your second data series you will need to create a new Plot for that indicator and then use BarsArray[1] in the OnBarUpdate() method. The following forum post gives an example of doing this: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ad.php?t=53024

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
