I am doing something similar-- and using Global Variables for this..
Set:
AccuracySetNamedInt("Current",Current);// this is for int values
AccuracySetNamedDouble("currentST",currentST );//double values
Get:
AccuracyGetNamedInt("Current",-1);
AccuracyGetNamedDouble"Current",-1);
So on chart 1 ill fun my functions and get a result.. if result = x then do y (set the gv),
On chart 2 -- if gv = x
then do Z. (place my trade).
reset GV back to NULL.
End;
I dont believe GV is only for rt.. If i back test-- and on chart 1 i get a buy signal-- put the var result into GV... Then on chart 2 it will see the GV and take a trade... I do use Global mode for playback... Im on mc14-- so in order to use Global Mode i have to close all my other charts to use playback(or they will all be trading whatever start i have on them all at the same time).. But that is ok..
I did just see someone else post in another thread talking about using Pmm keywords cause he thought it they were more stable then GV.. Ive never heard/used/tried or knew about pmm vars.. So maybe that is a better way to go.viewtopic.php?p=142240#p142120
But to answer your question -- i have been able to use GV for back testing(playback)..
