historical Ask/Bid prices in the  calculate event of an indicator
26 Jun 2020, 16:23

Is there a way (other than backtesting and saving to disk) to get historical Ask/Bid prices (that were valid on the time of the tick causing the calculate event to fire) in the  calculate event on of an indicator?

Hi genappsforex,

Check GetTicks() method.

I looked at that but could not see a way to align the tick to the chart (not date/time in a tick) Sorry so my question should be altered to:

Hi genappsforex,

Tick has a Time property. Use that to find the relevant tick at the time you need it.
