Bar Index value

[Dan_D_Trader]

Hi everyone.
I am looking for a method to obtain the bar index value for each time frame in:

1) a multi-time frame setup,
2) 5 minutes bar as the time frame of the main instrument,
3) tick for the secondary data set for the same main instrument instrument,
4) Calculate OnEachTick

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Dan_D_Trader,

Thanks for your post.

We recommend a complete review of this section of the help guide that will cover you question and other critical concepts in the context of a multi time frame script: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nstruments.htm

In general, the primary data series (the primary data series of the chart) will be known as BarsArray[0]. The first added data series will be BarsArray[1], the 2nd added data series will be BarsArray[2].

Here is an example you can add to OnBarUpdate() to get you started: Print (Times[BarsInProgress][0]+ " BarsInProgress: "+BarsInProgress+" CurrentBar being processed is: "+CurrentBars[BarsInProgress])
