Retreive Current bar and the previous bar in OnTick
24 Dec 2013, 16:17

I want to access the current and previous bar high / low using the MarketSeries in OnTick, however, I don't know what to fill for index.

protected override void OnTick()
        {
            MarketSeries.High[???];
        }

Thanks.

You have two ways to access current and previous values.

First way is to use indexes:

MarketSeries.High[MarketSeries.High.Count - 1] - current value
MarketSeries.High[MarketSeries.High.Count - 2] - previous value

Second way is to use Last method of DataSeries class:

MarketSeries.High.Last(0) - current value
MarketSeries.High.Last(1) - previous value
