SampleCustomEvents question

[Burga1]

Greetings,

I have a question regarding the "Timer" code setup provided in the "CustomEvents" Sampler. The setup for a timer is provided as something similar to this:

//in "Variables"
private System.Windows.Forms.Timer myTimer = new System.Windows.Forms.Timer();
//in "OnBarUpdate"
if (CurrentBar == 0)
{
// Initiate our Timer object with an interval of 120000ms (2 minutes)
myTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(TimerEventProcessor);
myTimer.Interval = 120000;
myTimer.Start();
}


I'm using this code and it seems to work fine. My one issue is, however, that a new instance of the event is added each time (every 2 minutes). Thus the first time the Timer runs everything is fine, 2 minutes later the event is called twice, 2 minutes later the event is called 3 times, 2 minutes later the event is called 4 times...etc

How do I prevent additional instances from being called each run? Is a variable needed or is it something with that code above?

Sorry, this is native C# programming support which is beyond teh scope what we can provide. As last report you could contact a certified NinjaScript consultant: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/pa...injaScript.htm

OK, well I posted the question because it is taken directly from a "Sample" provided by NT staff, thus I would have thought it would be supported.
