Days to load for a given indicator

[ballboy11]

Is there a days to load command that I can use for my indicator? I know I can go-to my data series and manually change it. I would like to have a parameter of days to load within my indicator. Thanks.

Hello ballboy11,

At this time there is not a specific property to control this for the primary series. The AddDataSeries command does have a BarsToLoad parameter for the second series which could potentially be used instead for logical purposes.

AddDataSeries(string instrumentName, BarsPeriod barsPeriod, int barsToLoad, string tradingHoursName, bool? isResetOnNewTradingDay)

Changing the days to load would be a UI command only. I can put in a feature request for a property to control this from an indicator.


I look forward to being of further assistance.
