NT7 clarification - Multi timeframe strategy

[Shansen]

All,

In NT6.5 a multi-timeframe strategy required each of the timeframes to be set as a dataseries and synced to the primary dataseries before applying any strategy criteria (as roughly detailed below). Are the same syncing requirements present in NT7? Alternatively, does the NT7 CurrentBar internal points being updated earlier do away with all the syncing requirements, and thus pretty much all of the code below.

A worked example may be a simple way to clearly explain.

As always, thanks
Shannon

BTW, top job on NT7 from what I've seen thus far.

#region Variables
  private DataSeries primarySeries;
  private DataSeries secondarySeries;  
#endregion

protected override void Initialize()
{
  primarySeries = new DataSeries(this);
  Add("^SP500",PeriodType.Minute,5);
}

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
  // Sync another DataSeries object to the secondary bar object
  if (secondarySeries == null)
  {  
    secondarySeries = new DataSeries(SMA(BarsArray[1],10));
  }
  if (BarsInProgress == 0)

Shannon, correct this should not be needed anymore as the pointers are updated earlier as per our code breaking changes doc which contents specific to this topic are also discussed here - http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...ad.php?t=27727

CurrentBar internal pointers are now updated earlier. This ensures that accessing bars across multiple series will be in sync regardless of which BarsInProgress context you may be working out of.
o For historical, pointers for all bar series with the same timestamp will be updated before OnBarUpdate() will be triggered.
o For real-time, pointers for all bar series of the same instrument will be updated before OnBarUpdate() will be triggered.
