HELLO I HAVE A TRADING SYSTEM THAT WORKS IN CHARTS IN HOURLY BARS, AND AT 9 IN THE MORNING IT NEEDS TO GET THE LOW BAR TO BE USED LATER IN AN STOP ORDER. SO I USE THIS FUNCTION : (ONCE THE BAR IT'S AT 9 IN THE MORNING) float TrueLow= GetTrueLow(sc.BaseDataIn); But to use this value in an stop order I have to convert the float value into a SCFLoat Array or an Subgraph extra array right? Can anybody tell me how to do this please? Thank you

You need to use: float BarLow = sc.Low[sc.Index]; But to use this value in an stop order I have to convert the float value into a SCFLoat Array or an Subgraph extra array right? Why do you need to do this? It makes no sense to us. Here is an example: s_SCNewOrder NewOrder; NewOrder.OrderQuantity = 1; NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_STOP; NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_DAY; NewOrder.Price1 = BarLow; Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

You also need to include this line in your code: float BarLow = sc.Low[sc.Index]; Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
