Passing variable

[caldolegare]

Is there a way to make a switch in NT?
For instance say 50 bars ago i set a variable to 1 and is there a way to check to see if it has changed to 2. if so then i play alert1.wav.

Hope that isn't too cryptic.

caldolegare,

This is possible through custom NinjaScript programming. You would create a variable and set it to take a value. Then whenever you want access that variable.

caldolegare,

The post was complete. The point is that you can do it, but you will need to custom program it to fit your needs.

Ah ok my bad. I already have my indicator up and running. i'm just not sure how to make the variable accessable a few bars later. all my variables reset once a new bar form.

If you want your variables past values to be accessible you will want to create them into DataSeries objects. Please take a look at this article: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/HelpGuideV6/DataSeriesObject.html
