Setting Indicator Plot values

[Logicwar]

Hi,

Looking at the "CurrentDayOHL" indicator, I don't understand how the following is possible:
if (ShowOpen)
CurrentOpen[0] = currentOpen;

if (ShowHigh)
CurrentHigh[0] = currentHigh;

Reading the documentation, I would expect it to be
if (ShowOpen)
Values[0][0] = currentOpen;

if (ShowHigh)
Values[1][0] = currentHigh;

How and where is the link between Values[0][0] made with CurrentOpen[0] ? The Properties only define "get"

Thank you.

Hi Logicwar, welcome to the forum.

The CurrentOpen and CurrentHigh return an array. Values[0] is the first plot, Values[1] is the second and so on. So they are returning an array, and when you reference "CurrentOpen[0]", you are getting "Values[0][0]".

Hi Chris,

Thank you for the quick reply. I have learned something.

I didn't know that it was possible in C# by only setting a "get" property returning an array to actually modify the returned array like this without defining a "set" property pointing back to the same array for modification.

Thank you
