Add bar

[kenz987]

=== strategy === help please ===
protected override void Initialize()
{
// the primary is a 1-minute NQ H8
// Add a 5 minute Bars object to the strategy
Add(PeriodType.Minute, 5);
Add(SMA(90)); // this shows on chart
Add(EMA(BarsArray[1],90)); // this does not show - why not ???
CalculateOnBarClose = true;
}

Right. You cannot use BarsArray[] inside the Initialize method. You can only add indicators based off of your primary series. This does not limit you from basing calculations off of the EMA of your secondary series though.

Thanks for that prompt reply. With your help and this forum I have made good progress in just a few days. Ken. (not a Ninja-yet; VB programmer)
