how will i get the 200 bars of 5-minute data.

[XWCSV]

i would like to get the 200 bars of 5-minute data into the from 1000 minutes from now until now.
it seems as if the below code will place the correct request, but i don't seem to be getting the correct data.
esignal.get_RequestHistory(StockName, "5", IESignal.barType.btBARS, 200, -1, -1);
what do you think?

When using btBARs type with the get_RequestHistory function, you can only obtain intraday bars. For example, if you want to obtain n number bars between 9am and 10am, the function call would be like:

esignal.get_RequestHistory(Symbol, "5", btBARS, n, 540, 600)

9:00am = 9 hour x 60 minutes
10:00am = 10 hour x 60 minutes

See the History functions section of the Desktop API documentation for detail.

Remember that when you are requesting the bars the last bar's index is 0 and then it becomes -1, -2 ,... and so on. so if you are using for loop you want to do this:

for x= 0 to lNumBars
something= bars(x * (-1))

next

the catch is the (-1)
