How to know the number of Panels in an indicator

freewind · 10-08-2010, 03:50 AM

Hi all,

I'm developing an indicator that get as an input 2 instrument and Add them to the indicator no matter what instrument was chosen to the chart.
My problem is that if I have a chart with more then one panel I don't know what are my 2 input instrument DataSeries are.
For example if I have only one panel in my chart I could assume that Closes[1][0]is my first input instrument last close, and Closes[2[0] is the second. But if the user enter 2 panels it should be Closes[2][0] and Closes[3][0].
So, how can I know the number of the Panels the user input so i can program it to any chart no matter what the user input. Closes[UserPanelsNum + 1] and Closes[UserPanelsNum + 2].

I hope I made myself clear :-)
Thanks in advance!
