Series Value is Zero

[Kentoes]

Need a bit of help on creating a series. I've got the following code snip to create myMACDDiff series. The problem is that referencing myMACDDiff[1] always has 0.

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {


            double MACDDiff = MACD(MACDfast, MACDSlow, MACDSignalLength)[0];
            Series<double> myMACDDiff = new Series<double>(this);
            myMACDDiff[0] = MACDDiff;

What have I done wrong?

Data series should be created in state DataLoaded and stored as a global indicator/strategy/etc. class variable.

Fixed. Thank you.

Hello Kentoes,

MojoJojo is correct. If you are declaring something in OnBarUpdate() then it will only exist in that run of OnBarUpdate() and then will cease to exist.

Below is a link to the help guide on declaring custom series.
