Assign Variable on first Tick

[keepsimple]

Hi,

I have a strategy, where I want to assign the value or price of the first tick after the strategy is put on the chart to a variable.
I want this to happen only once.
How to I accomplish that.

KeepSimple,

You would want to use the Historical bool and another bool to detect when you are in live data and then get the first tick it will store that value and then set the bool to false.

Example -

if(!Historical && firstTick)
{
myVar = Close[0];
firstTick = false;
}

Thanks Cal,

this should work.
