Using Values from Another Indicator

[NinjaTrader_Jesse]

Hello jonesy73,

That is likely ChartBars, that is only going to be available to the host indicator and only if it is applied to a chart directly,

In C# you can check if any object is null by checking if it equals null, you can do that in a print like I previously suggested:

Print(ChartBars == null);

I'm replying to an old thread but just wanted make sure I have this correct. If I want to access a variable I created in my Indicator in a strategy:

In My Indicator at the top I have my variable definied:

private int MyInt;

Then at the bottom in the properties section I do this:

public int MyInt
{
get { Update(); return MyInt; }
}

Now in My Strategy file:

private MyIndicator MyIndicator1

In State == State.DataLoaded:

MyIndicator1 = MyIndicator(para1, para2, para3)

Then to access the variable I want:

MyIndicator1.MyInt

Is this the correct way?

Hello several,

You can find a sample of exposing a public variable in the following link, the code you have appears to follow that structure. You can confirm you have done the same by comparing against the code in the sample.
