Post From: Detecting OnPriceChanged Intrabar

I think my brain panicked a little after looking at some of that code, but after digging around a little and some experimentation and a cold beer, I think the key line of code I was looking for was:

sc.LastTradePrice

Basically, to get OnPriceChanged functionality,

1. create a persistant float to house the prior price value
2. get the last trade price, float ltp = sc.LastTradePrice
3. if PriorPrice != ltp, then ... the price changed.
4. set priorprice to ltp

I also found sc.GetLastPriceForTrading(). Not sure if I should use that or sc.LastTradePrice, or if it really matters. In the logging, it looks the same. Hope this helps someone someday. :)
