When to do static calculations?

[ErikY]

I have some calculations I need to do at the time the chart is loaded, and it is never to change on bar update.

When is the right time to do this? I am thinking OnStateChange state == Historical or configure, but not sure which is right?

Hi Erik, thanks for posting.

You can use State.DataLoaded for this if you need the bars to be loaded at the time of calculation:

else if (State == State.DataLoaded)
{
if(BarsArray[0] != null)
{
    for(int i = BarsArray[0].Count-1; i >= 0; i--)
    {
        Print(BarsArray[0].GetClose(i));
    }
}
}

Got it, thanks
