Odd error in Strategy Analyzer - ChartControl

[saltminer]

Hi,
I've got an odd error for you. I've got an exception in the Strategy Analyzer from the following piece of code. I know it is from this line because of the debugging Print statements either side.

if (DEBUG)
Print("debug point 2");
// the following causes a crash inside the Strategy Analyzer
if (ChartControl != null)
col = dir > 0 ? ChartControl.UpColor : ChartControl.DownColor;
if (DEBUG)
Print("debug point 3");

And here is the error it creates (output from OutputWindow):
...
...
debug point 2
**NT** Error on calling 'OnBarUpdate' method for strategy 'grGoldChannelTrader4/8f57ba04d2e5494cb2163c8c88fb1098': Index was outside the bounds of the array.

Good luck with this. I don't know which array it is referring to

Hello,

Thanks for the note.

If you take the chart control references out does it still have issue? Meaning just plug in some random colors here.

I look forward to assisting you further.

Yes, I replaced it with
col = dir > 0 ? Color.LimeGreen : Color.Red;

No errors now.

Hello,

In this case you would be good to go.

Unfortunately we dont support anything in ChartControl. Therefor it is possible something could be changed in this area or not work as you expect.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Re further assistance;
Is there another way to determine if a strategy is running without a chart, e.g. in Strategy Analyzer or on the Control Centre?

Is there a way for an indicator to determine the same thing? e.g. Market Analyzer

Then I can skip examining ChartControl.

Thanks,
