using a public variable referenced from an indicator in a bot

Hi,

I came across the ‘Trend Magic’ indicator, and added it to my indies. It compiles fine. I added a single public double Trend and set that in the code to 1 or -1. I try to reference this from a cBot, but I never get a value other than zero back. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?  Thanks.

Trend magic indie starts like this. The double Trend I added

namespace cAlgo
{
    [Indicator(IsOverlay = true, TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class TrendMagic : Indicator
    {
        [Parameter("CCI Period", DefaultValue = 20)]
        public int cciPer { get; set; }
        [Parameter("ATR Period", DefaultValue = 5)]
        public int atrPer { get; set; }
        [Parameter("ATR Multiplier", DefaultValue = 1)]
        public int atrMul { get; set; }

        [Output("Trend Magic", LineColor = "Red")]
        public IndicatorDataSeries TM { get; set; }
        [Output("Trend Magic Up", PlotType = PlotType.DiscontinuousLine, LineColor = "Lime", Thickness = 2)]
        public IndicatorDataSeries TMUp { get; set; }
        [Output("Trend Magic Down", PlotType = PlotType.DiscontinuousLine, LineColor = "Red", Thickness = 2)]
        public IndicatorDataSeries TMDown { get; set; }

        private CommodityChannelIndex cci;
        private AverageTrueRange atr;
        private IndicatorDataSeries bufferUp, bufferDown, x, swap;
        public double Trend = 0;

I declared it in my Cbot like this

        private TrendMagic TM1;
        private double Trend = 0;

and in OnStart

TM1 = Indicators.GetIndicator<TrendMagic>(20, 5, 1);

Then in Onbar, I am doing this

Trend = TM1.Trend;

it all compiles fine, but ‘Trend’ is always a zero value.

Any pointers would be appreciated (sorry - New to cTrader API and still trying to figure some stuff out!)  Thanks.
