OnStartUP

[dillen]

Hi,

Looking from today's perspective to the history - I would like to find each time the day's high is setting a new high. As I am using it in a 1 minute chart, I was thinking about getting the data once for each chart in the OnStartUp function. I wrote the following code, however I keep getting 0 as the high. What am I doing wrong ?

my backtest definitions are :
price based on : Last
minute
1

from 01/01/2016
until 12/07/2016

Max bars - infinite
min bars 205



protected override void OnStartUp()
{
Resistance_Array_Index = 0 ; for (int x = 10; x < 200; x++)
{

if ( PriorDayOHLC().PriorHigh[x] > Resistance_Array[1,Resistance_Array_Index])
{
Resistance_Array[1,Resistance_Array_Index] = PriorDayOHLC().PriorHigh[x];
Resistance_Array[0,Resistance_Array_Index] = x;
Resistance_Array_Index = Resistance_Array_Index + 1 ;

}
}
}

Hello dillen,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum!

The issue is that there are no bars loaded in OnStartUp() so you would need to move your logic into the OnBarUpdate() method.
