    "What If analysis"

    I've recently found the need in my indicator to look ahead and perform a "what-if" analysis.. meaning what is the value of these other indicators if the price was X.

    In this effort, I've been trying to duplicate the Bars object and modifying the lastprice/close, but copying these bars have been troublesome. Is there either:

    1) an easy way to duplicate a bars object
    or
    2) an easy way to modify the current close price and then "undo" it right after

    This will have to work with all chart types: line-breaks, renkos and time based charts.

    Hi Jeremy,

    You're not able to change the value of bars themselves that are reported by your data provider. You can create a custom data series, which is one value per bar. This is what indicators are are expecting as input, so should work for you.
