Dear Trader,

First you have to get the MarketSeries of the symbol and timeframe of your choice.

Then you will have to get the index of the bar that was build around the time you want to to find the open price.

Once you get the index of the Bar you will be able to retrieve the OpenPrice of that Bar.

The following code snippet illustrates it:

            MarketSeries marketserie = MarketData.GetSeries(TimeFrame);
            int index = marketserie.OpenTime.GetIndexByTime(DateTime.Parse("24-Jul-15 03:20AM"));
            double openprice = marketserie.Open[index];

That's fantastic.

Thank you so much. I'll play around with this further.
