ISERIAS values when no data exist

[ofiramitai]

Hi,

I'm using AddDataSeries() to add ^TICK. I might be wrong but I've noticed that if there is no data for the TICK (for example when I run historic data), the data series holds the close price of the main series. Is that correct?

Since I add several data series (from different classes) I'm not sure what's the series index number in the array. How can I reference a data series by its name?

Thanks

Hello ofiramitai,

Thank you for your post.

If there is no data for an instrument that is added to your script, OnBarUpdate() would be prevented from being called for that instrument so the instrument would hold no values. It also may prevent the script from running. The added instrument would not hold the Close price of the main series.

You could open a chart for the added instrument to verify if you have data for that instrument before using the script.

Added data series cannot be referenced by name. Instead, you would need to use a BarsInProgress check for the added data series. An added series index is referenced in the order that the series was added to your script. If you have 3 added series, the primary series is referenced using BarsInProgress == 0, the first added series would be BarsInProgress == 1, the second added series is referenced with BarsInProgress == 2, and so on.

For more information about AddDataSeries and BarsInProgress, please see the documentation linked below.
