Hello Papercut110,
Thank you for your note.
Could you please clarify in more detail what you're looking to do so I can better direct you? If you are looking just to reference the values you could use the Market Analyzer to display them under Control Center>New>Market Analyzer. Or you could use the Strategy Wizard to build a condition/strategy under the Control Center>Tools>New NinjaScript>Strategy.
See Market Analyzer Youtube:

For the Strategy Wizard:
In Strategy Wizard, after pressing next you would want to name the strategy and set CalculateOnBarClose to False, so that Close[0] would equal the last price. Click next next, then under Conditions and Actions, "When the following conditions are true"">Add.
This is where you could compare the Close (Current price) against the Open using the various operators in the middle.

NinjaTrader_AlanP, did I understand you correctly, if I use CalculateOnBarClose = False then "Close[0]" will use the current price, but not the one which closed bar?? I'm sorry, my language is lame

Hello Papercut110,
If you set CalculateOnBarClose=False, your conditions are going to be evaluated with each incoming tick and Close[0] is going to represent the current price until the bar closes.
See CalculateOnBarClose section of our Helpguide:
Please let us know if you need further assistance.Alan P.NinjaTrader Customer Service

GetCurrentAsk and GetCurrentBid
When OnBarClose is True, I can still access GetCurrentAsk() and GetCurrentBid(). It is surprising for me that both these functions are available but something like: GetCurrentPrice() is not! And I have use OnMarketData() just to get the current price! Anyway, thank you for the earlier answer, it certainly helped
