Value[0] inside OnBarClose()

[JMellen]

Just need a clarification here, if I am inside the OnBarClose function and I reference Value[0], is that the bar that just closed? or is the going to be the value of the current bar that is building now?

ie to get the value of the bar that just closed while in OnBarClose, which index do I reference, Value[0] or Value[1]?

and if it is Value[0]... how do I get the value of the bar that is currently being built?

Thanks,

Jon

Hello Jon,
Close[0] represents Closing price of bar that is closed & new bar started to form while using OnBarClose,
Close[0] represents Closing price of bar that is forming i.e. the newest bar on chart while using OnEachTick or OnPriceChange.
Hope it helps!

Hello JMellen,

Thanks for your post.

In addition to forum member s.kinra's advise, please see the help guide reference here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ice_series.htm

Value[] and Values[][] typically are associated with Plots that are added to the script. You can use the various price series directly of Open, High, Low, and Close.

The bars ago index [] is as forum member s.kinra advised related to the calculate setting of the script AND if the data being processed is historical or real-time.
