Sum and Bars Ago

[sdauteuil]

Just want to check if I am accessing. BarsAgo correctly

I want to get / compare the sum of the last 3 bars and the sum of the 3 bars prior to those.

Sum(input,(3)[0] == the current 3 bars

Sum(input,(3)[4] == sum of the 3 bars previous

Hello sdauteuil,

Thank you for your post.

To get and compare the last 3 bars with the previous 3 bars before that, you could use the SUM methods seen below. Please note to include a CurrentBar check to ensure you have enough bars loaded on the chart. For example, you would need to ensure that there are at least 6 bars for the SUMs to calculate.

double sumOfLast3Bars = SUM(3)[0]; This will get the SUM of the last 3 bars (Close[0], Close[1], and Close[2]).

double sumOfPrevious3Bars = SUM(3)[3]; This will get the SUM of the previous 3 bars after the last 3 bars (Close[3], Close[4], and Close[5]).

Please see this help guide documentation for more information about SUM - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...mation_sum.htm

Also, please see this documentation about making sure you have enough bars loaded - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nough_bars.htm
