BarsSinceNewTradingDay

[AlexGn]

Does anybody use BarsSinceNewTradingDay? I have spent a lot of time before I have discovered that BarsSinceNewTradingDay in NT8 and BarsSinceSession in NT7 return different values to me. At Code Breaking Changes article is mentioned that it is just renamed - "Property renamed to be more specific". Is there a chance that it is not just renamed but calculated differently?

Thank you for writing.

I will be reviewing your code and this case. When I have additional details I will follow up here on this thread.

Hello,

Thank you for writing in.

What instrument (and expiry if applicable) have you selected?

Which Session Template are you using?

Can you provide me a screenshot of the results for both NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8?

To send a screenshot with Windows 7 or newer I would recommend using Window's Snipping Tool.

Alternatively to send a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screen shot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and send the file as an attachment.

I'll be waiting for your reply.

Hi Patrick!
Thank you for paying attention. I have used different instruments (stocks and futures) but here lets try futures. Below is the example I have created. I took SMA script from NT7 and NT8 and just added one line into OnBarUpdate(). It is Print("Bars.BarsSinceNewTradingDay: " + Bars.BarsSinceNewTradingDay); in NT8 and Print("Bars.BarsSinceSession: " + Bars.BarsSinceSession); in NT7 (I can attach both scripts if you need it). Then I have opened ES 03-16 with 100 Bars request and "Use instrument settings" template:


And below is what I got in the Output window:



What am I doing wrong?
Rem: TimeZone in the NT8 is the same as local UTC+3

And all the same settings but changed instrument to Ford:

Hi Patrick,

Should I provide anything else?
Stopped by this issue so any advice will be very helpful. Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for posting the details here.

I would like to see the tests you are using and run these on my end if possible just to ensure we are doing the same test from the start. Could you export the simple tests you are using for each platform for me to compare?

I realize there is only a single print in each but where the print is in the scripts logic could play a role as I am unsure what else may be in the script at this point.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Thank you Jesse!
The both are attached

Hello,

Thank you for providing these.

I did try the files but am not getting the same output, I am getting the expected output or they are matching.

I wanted to check, had you done a Reload historical data on both platforms prior to testing this?

I have attached my results using the scripts for review.


I look forward to being of further assistance.

Hi Jesse!
I have reset database and reloaded historical data and now everithing is fine! I am a bit surprised by this solution but absolutely happy that the issue is resolved. Thanks a lot!
