I'm trying to do something rather simple and it's just not working - My indicator comes up blank on the chart. What am I doing wrong? the code I came up with is a simple summation of a two period RSI for the last three bars. I don't see how it could be simpler! The plot just comes up with nothing calculated. I've saved and compiled. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.


protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
//CALCULATE THE 2 PERIOD SUMMED RSI

double CUMRSI = RSI(2,3)[0] + RSI(2,3)[1] + RSI(2,3)[2];

Plot0.Set(CUMRSI);
}

Note: Today is my first day using NT - so be easy on me

wait for enough value to be used in your calculation

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{

if (CurrentBar < 3)
{

return;
}

....}

Beginners mistake. I should have known! grrrr
thanks for the tip. I looked up that problem and apparently it's really common. Lesson learned! Thx again!
