Tick difference

Found this on other thread:
if (FirstTickOfBar)
{
Up = 0;
Down = 0;
}
prevTick = currTick;
currTick = Close[0];
if (currTick > prevTick)
Up++;
else if (currTick < prevTick)
Down++;
Will this work?
I am familiar with NT programming now, so my questions these days are more to getting familiar with the APIs that NT provided and other resources that we can use without re-inventing the wheels. Thanks again

I tried both of these snippets:
Method 1 =================
prevTick = currTick;
currTick = Close[0];
if (currTick > prevTick)
tick_count++;
else if (currTick < prevTick)
tick_count++;
Method 2 =============
if (Close[0] >= GetCurrentAsk())
tick_count++;
elseif (Close[0] <= GetCurrentBid())
tick_count--;
===================
Both yield different results. Method 1 seems to always count positive even in red bars, while method 2 gives better results with neg counts in red bar (not always, but it is more realistic)
Any idea why?

Looking quickly at the code, you can see snippet 1 is always advancing the tick count with each OnBarUpdate() as it does not differentiate.
Snippet 2 looks at the Bid / Ask and does differentiate...so you will have to choose the one that fits your needs and go from there.BertrandNinjaTrader Customer Service
