Check instrument type in AddDataSeries

[guillembm]

I can see in the NT8 help guide how to check the MasterInstrument instrument type. But, what if I want to check the instrument type of one added data series added using AddDataSeries?

Thanks

Hello guillembm,

Thanks for your post.

You can access through the BarsArray[n].Instrument.MasterInstrument.InstrumentType where n = the data series. Here is an example you can test with:

Print ("BIP: "+BarsInProgress+" Type: "+BarsArray[BarsInProgress].Instrument.MasterInstrument.InstrumentType);

Example output:
BIP: 0 Type: Future
BIP: 1 Type: Future
BIP: 2 Type: Forex
BIP: 0 Type: Future
BIP: 1 Type: Future
