Returns a numerical value, indicating the resolution units of the data series that the study is applied to.

Usage

BarType

The following values are returned for each type of resolution units:

0 = Ticks (Ticks & Contracts),
1 = Intra-Day (Seconds, Minutes, & Hours),
2 = Days,
3 = Weeks,
4 = Months, Quarters, & Years,
5 = Points & Changes,
6 = (Reserved for future use),
7 = (Reserved for future use),
8 = Kagi,
9 = (Reserved for future use),
10 = Line Break,
11 = (Reserved for future use),
12 = (Reserved for future use),
13 = Renko,
256 = Heikin Ashi.
1000+N = Custom Resolution, where N = BarType.

Notes

  • See BarType_ex for more specific indication of which chart type the code is applied to.

Example

Assign a value, indicating the resolution units of the data series that the study is applied to, to Value1 variable:

Value1 = BarType;
