Help with mulit time frame

[superhaze421]

Hello,

If you are wanting just the current day and session you would need to filter out our condition for the most current day.

if(Time[0] == DateTime.Today)

ok added that in but it doesnt return any values. I either get too many days with the wrong sma number or nothing at all

Hello superhaze421,

Thank you for your response.

Please right click in your chart and select Data Series > then set the DaysToLoad to more than 20 days and not 10. You are running a 20 period SMA on the Daily bars, this means we need at least 20 days loaded on the chart.

ok I loaded 20 days, I also lowed it form a 20 period to a 5 period SMA,
this is what it returns. Correct open prices for the session start but wrong SMA

Session Start: 6/29/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 105.72 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 6/30/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 105.39 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 7/1/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 105.34 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 7/2/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 104.29 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 7/3/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 104.01 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 7/6/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 103.76 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 7/7/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 103.47 SMA Value 105.76
Session Start: 7/8/2014 3:00:00 PM Open Price 103.49 SMA Value 105.76

Only need the most current

i tried if(Time[0] == DateTime.Today) and nothing gets returned

All i need is the open from the 5min base period, and the correct SMA value from the daily chart at the start of each new session for CL.

Hello superhaze421,

Thank you for your response.

I set the Days To Load to 300 and got the following output for the last few weeks:

Ok, how to i get only 1 day. For example if i start the strategy at 11:00am to only print once the new session starts

Hello superhaze421,

Thank you for your response.

As the SMA in this case is a 20 period, it needs 20 days of data to determine the SMA's current value. BarsRequired are 20 as well, so you would need at least 41 days to load (contrary to my earlier statement of only 20 days to load).
