Actually, it does need a little more explanation. If you are using TS4
and this is a contract wich has RTH of 6+ hours a day, then you can not
load 30 days of 1min data. You would then have to store the values
with a dll.
However, since you did not mention what the problem is, I assume
....you are not using TS4.
....the event you are recording daily is recorded at a specific time on a
specific bar.
....Your problem is that you cannot figure out which previous bar to reference
and that your maxbarsback setting would encompass almost your entire data set.
If I am correct in my assumptions, then at the incidence of calculating the
sentiment
value, send the value to an array with 30 values in it. The array will remain
constant
until the next days calculation at wich time, the oldest value is bumped off the
array,
the rest of the values are sorted down one place, and the new value is inserted
in
the empty slot.
