Dear Trader,

For an indicator:

The index parameter of the “Calculate” method, represents each bar, ranging from 0 up to the current (last) bar. So to achieve retrieving the previous value of an indicator you should use indicatorName.ResultSeriesName[index]. In your case it should be:

public override void Calculate(int index)
{...
indicatorName.ResultSeriesName[index]> IchimokuKinkoHyoindicator.TenkanSen[index] && indicatorName.ResultSeriesName[index-1]<chimokuKinkoHyoindicator.TenkanSen[index-1]
...}

For a cBot:

You will have to create a MarketSeries with Symbol and/or timeframe as parameters. Then retrieve the DataSeries from the MarketSeries on preferred values of historical trendbars (open, close, high, low). As last you count the number of elements the DataSeries contains. Then you will be able to simulate the Calculate method in you cBot the following code snippet illustrates it:

MarketSeries data = MarketData.GetSeries(TimeFrame.Hour);

DataSeries data2 = data.Close;

int count = data2.Count; ...

price[count]>tenkan[count] && price[count-1]

Additionally we recommend you to have a look at our API guides.
