AddDataSeries/BarsPeriodType Bars with more that two values?

[Darquer]

I have custom bar types that have three values to set, yet BarsPeriodType only supports Value and Value2. How do you add these bar types to a Strategy or Indicator?

Examples:

Built-in:
AddDataSeries(Data.BarsPeriodType.Minute, 1);
AddDataSeries(Data.BarsPeriodType.Tick, 50);

Custom with one:
AddDataSeries(new BarsPeriod() {BarsPeriodType = (BarsPeriodType)149, BarsPeriodTypeName = "149", Value = 4});

Custom with two:
AddDataSeries(new BarsPeriod() {BarsPeriodType = (BarsPeriodType)22220, BarsPeriodTypeName = "22220", Value = 8, Value2 = 8});

Trying the following for custom bar types which take three:
AddDataSeries(new BarsPeriod() {BarsPeriodType = (BarsPeriodType)1342, BarsPeriodTypeName = "1342", Value = 10, Value2 = 14024, Value3 = 674});
AddDataSeries(new BarsPeriod() {BarsPeriodType = (BarsPeriodType)20122, BarsPeriodTypeName = "20122", Value = 4, Value2 = 1, Value3 = 7});

Gives the following:
'NinjaTrader.Data.BarsPeriod' does not contain a definition for 'Value3'

Thank you.

They are Value, Value2, and BasePeriodValue.

Hello Darquer,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

RJay is correct, the BasePeriodValue can also be used.

You may want to view the code of the script to see which values are being renamed with the SetPropertyName() method.

Thanks, RJay.
