Hi Guys.


How can I create a cumulative indicator / timeseries using at current bar calculation the value of previous bars?

for exemple, X = X(n-1) + X(n-2)

I don't know how to access prevoius values in the same timeseries / indicator inside Initialize section - dont know even if that is the correct location.

Thanks in advance.

You could do it in Initialize. Or create the TimeSeries in Initialize and set the values in Execute. Here's an example of it done in Initialize:

CODE:
//create indicators and other objects here, this is executed prior to the main trading loop public override void Initialize(BarHistory bars) {          RSI rsi14 = RSI.Series(bars.Close, 14);          PlotIndicator(rsi14);          TimeSeries cumulative = new TimeSeries(bars.DateTimes);          for (int n = 2; n < bars.Count; n++)             cumulative[n] = rsi14[n - 1] + rsi14[n - 2];          PlotTimeSeries(cumulative, "RSICumulative", "RSI", WLColor.Green); }
