Getting Daily ATR on intraday strategy

[pmn100]

I've been stumped on this for a few hours. Ive reviewed the multi time frame
instructions and have the following inserted in my code, but the atr value keeps thowing out '0'.

private double atr;

State.SetDefaults
Calculate.OnBarClose;

State.Configure
AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Day,1);

OnBarUpdate()
{
if(BarsInProgress == 0)
{
if(CurrentBars[1] >14)
atr = ATR(BarsArray[1],14)[0];
}
}

Its a 15 min strategy and I've tried putting BarRequiredToTrade to 5000 but still get the '0' for the atr variable.

Hello pmn100.

Thank you for your post.

Right click in your chart > select Data Series > set your DaysToLoad to larger than the 14 period plus the BarsRequiredToPlot (usually 20).

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sorry forgot to say I'm in Strategy Analyser, trying to backtest and using NinjaScript Output to print that atr variable I've set, but it just keeps giving me '0'.

Hello pmn100,

Thank you for your response.

Who are you connected to for data? Can you open a Daily chart of the instrument and add the ATR and see values?

I look forward to your response.

OMG I'm not connected. I'm so use to running a 15min strat offline I forgot I need access to daily data. Sorry about that and thanks for the prompt.
