This tutorial applies to TradeStation (but not MultiCharts) because it uses TradeStation’s object oriented extensions. For example, in the following daily chart of IBM, the ‘Show empty daily trading periods for traditional chart types’ is selected. If these are selected, the chart includes blank bars which ‘confuse’ the bar number for BNPoints. NewBar = BarNumber + MaxBarsBack – 1 Gotcha 2Īnother issue that can cause what appear to be spurious results are the ‘Show empty daily trading periods for traditional chart types’ and ‘Show empty intraday session periods for traditional chart types’ settings. So to create a BNPoint for the current bar (BarNumber) would be: This is not the same as the BarNumber function or CurrentBar reserved word which count the number of bars available for analysis after MaxBarsBack.
