Bars.BarClosed event does not work when using dependent indicators

Hi.

It looks as if there is a problem using the BarClosed-Event.

I have an indicator ONE that calculates different parts during the BarClosed-Event.
I have an indicator TWO that makes use of indicator ONE. Both are using the BarClosed-Event. 

But now it looks as if the BarClosed-Event of indicator ONE is called AFTER the BarClosed-Event of indicator TWO. Therefore the calculations of Indicator ONE are not available at the time indicator TWO makes use of it.

How can I make sure that BarClosed-Event of indicator ONE is always called before BarClosed-Event of indicator TWO?

 

Best
Carsten

Hi Carsten,

There is no way to force this so you should think of a different way to implement your functionality. Based on your abstract description, it seems more appropriate to create a method and call it whenever you want, instead of relying on events.

Best regards,
