hold variable through bar updates

[trader3000a]

Hi,
How can I hold a variable in an "on bar update" environment even though the condition that created it is no longer true? I want to keep it until the condition is true again at some point in the future.
thanks,
David

Unless you are specifically setting it false, it would remain true.

Hello trader3000a,

Thanks for your post.

Tasker-182 is correct. The bool variable will remain true until you set it to false in your code.

You could print out the bool to see how it is evaluating as you run your script. Prints will appear in the NinjaScript Output window (New > NinjaScript Output window).

Below is a link to a forum post that demonstrates how to use prints to understand behavior.
