How to add own class

[Sebastian Leitner]

Hello Ninja Scripters,

I guess, this should be a simple questions for most of you guys, yet find no answer to this.
I hope someone out there might help me and give me a short answer. I'd be quite thankful.

I want to create a custom Indicator. Yet, when I create my own Class under the namespace:
NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.Indicators .... why can't I use the piece of Information like the: Bars.GetHigh?

the "Using" includes the: NinjaTrader.Data ... which, I thought, gives access to the Bars information, yet why can't I enter this Bars information?
The Ninja Script Help Guide says that you can't just use, for example, "High[2]" out of the OnBarUpdate-EventHandler, you need to use the Bars.GetHigh() Method,
but it doesn't work. So How can I access the Bars Data Information when using my own class?

Welcome to the forums Sebastian Leitner!

Bars is provided from the indicator base class.

If you want to access Bars (or other properties from the host class) from a custom class, I suggest creating a NinjaScriptBase parameter for your class's constructor so you can access properties from within your custom class.

Please see the attached example.
