Emailing Bar Info

[ryebank]

Hi,

My indicator sends an email once a signal has been triggered. Is there any way to add the information of bar[0] such as Open, High, Low and Close? Is it also possible to send the same information for bar[1]

This is the email i currently send;

SendMail("[email protected]", Instrument.FullName + Time[0] + Bars.Period.Id + Bars.Period.Value, "Inside Bar");


Thanks Rye

Hello Rye,

Thank you for your note.

You can send this information within the string text (message body) of the e-mail using Close[0], Open[0], Low[0], and High[0]. And for the previous bar the same methods but with 1 instead of 0, like the following: Close[1], Open[1], etc.

For example:

SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "OHLC of the current bar", Open[0] + " " + High[0] + " " + Low[0] + " " + Close[0]);

For the previous bar:

SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "OHLC of the previous bar", Open[1] + " " + High[1] + " " + Low[1] + " " + Close[1]);

For information on Close, Open, Low, and High please visit the following links:

• Open: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...s/nt7/open.htm
• Low: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...es/nt7/low.htm
• High: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...s/nt7/high.htm

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Email OHLC

Thanks Patrick but how do i enclose this all in one email. Can't compile it due to the number of arguments

So i need this

SendMail("[email protected]", Instrument.FullName + Time[0] + Bars.Period.Id + Bars.Period.Value, "Inside Bar");

With this

"OHLC of the current bar", Open[0] + " " + High[0] + " " + Low[0] + " " + Close[0]

and

"OHLC of the previous bar", Open[1] + " " + High[1] + " " + Low[1] + " " + Close[1]

In one email message, can you help put this together?

Hello Rye,

Thank you for your response.

It would look like the following:

SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "OHLC of the current bar", Open[0] + " " + High[0] + " " + Low[0] + " " + Close[0] + " " + Open[1] + " " + High[1] + " " + Low[1] + " " + Close[1]);

Notice that I am using the + to separate the values of the string (the OHLCs) and using the " " to add a space. You could even add in text here like the following:

SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "OHLC of the current bar", "Current Open: " + Open[0] + " Current High: " + High[0] + " Current Low: " + Low[0] + " Current Close: "  + Close[0] + " Previous Open: " + Open[1] + " Previous High: " + High[1] + " Previous Low: " + Low[1] + " Previous Close: " + Close[1]);

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Looks good but we're still missing the following

Instrument.FullName + Time[0] + Bars.Period.Id + Bars.Period.Value

Hello Rye,

Thank you for your response.

The examples below are to be used as reference. So if " Instrument.FullName + Time[0] + Bars.Period.Id + Bars.Period.Value" is your subject line then you need to enter it into the section for the string subject.

For example this is the syntax for SendMail(): SendMail(string from, string to, string subject, string text)

With your subject entered into the example it would look like the following: SendMail(string from, string to, Instrument.FullName + Time[0] + Bars.Period.Id + Bars.Period.Value, string text)

Please use the information at the following link on SendMail() to ensure you are using the proper Syntax: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...7/sendmail.htm

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
