setting a value in a recursive variable

[tradernith]

I am trying to create a recursive variable that holds its historical values and am not able to figure out how to do this in Ninjascript.

The following is ThinkScript code from TOS:

def C = C[1] + volume;
plot CumulativeVolume = C;


Thanks!

Show the code that you have now, and we can see how to correct it. It is pretty simple in NinjaScript, but certainly a different paradigm from ThinkScript, and definitely not as concise.

Below you will find a translation.

[COLOR=Green]// add plot in Initialize section[/COLOR]
[COLOR=Blue]protected override void[/COLOR] Initialize()
{
    Add([COLOR=Blue]new[/COLOR] Plot([COLOR=Blue]new[/COLOR] Pen(Color.DarkOrange, 2), PlotStyle.Bar, "Cumulated Volume"));
    ........
}

[COLOR=Green]// calculate cumulated volume in OnBarUpdate()[/COLOR]
[COLOR=Blue]protected override void [/COLOR]OnBarUpdate()
{
     [COLOR=Blue] if[/COLOR](CurrentBar == 0)
            C.Set(Volume[0]);
      [COLOR=Blue]else[/COLOR]
            C.Set(C[1] + Volume[0]);
      ......
}

[COLOR=Green]// define property for the first plot[/COLOR]

Thanks Harry and Koganam! Let me try this out.
