AddDataSeries() should be hardcoded

[BGWTEX]

Greetings,

I have in my indicator, with the line :
AddDataSeries(Instrument.FullName, new BarsPeriod { BarsPeriodType = BarsPeriodType.Minute, Value = 1 }, 1800,"CME US Index Futures ETH BGW EOD 315 (1)", false);

Would this cause the error :
Indicator 'PD VA__Up': Error on calling 'OnStateChange' method: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ?

I'm trying to avoid having to re code 20 or 30 indicators every Rollover.

Other than the error message, the indicator seems to load the 1 minute bars and function as expected, is there an alternative to rewriting at every Rollover ? What's the impact of leaving as is ?

Thanks,

Bruce

Hello BGWTEX, thanks for your post.

The only time this will be a problem is during an optimization in the Strategy Analyzer when new instances of the indicator are being created. Using variables in AddDataSeries is not something we support, so if you do have unforeseen issues we will not be able to find a resolution instead of suggesting to hard code the parameters. For loading on charts or using in a strategy it will work fine.

Best regards,

Thanks Chris

That's exactly what I needed to know.
