Can you make it so studies can access high and low number bar data?

This is already supported but we need more details on what you want to do specifically.

An example might be a simple moving average of the highs.

If you mean the volume at the high of each numbers bar, then that requires custom programming. You would have to create your own custom moving average study for that.

The data is accessible with this ACSIL variable:

We cannot provide any further help with this.

I mean the high price, as in the open, high, low, close of a bar. Right now, I can only use the open or close in a study.

This is controlled through the Input Data input with studies:

The high or low are not available as input data with number bars.

This is not making any sense. The Numbers Bars study is not a moving average study.

You need to use the Moving Average-Simple study:

The high and low inputs are not available for any studies applied to number bars. Try applying a simple moving average with the last input, it plots on the number bar chart. Now try changing the imput to high instead of last. It is not available.

It works just fine. What do you mean by: "with the last input"?

And why do you say "it is not available"?

Clearly the Input Data input does list "High".

Attached is what I see on my screen. There is no high or low in input. This is an older window running within a current version of Sierra. My only guess is that the updates for some reason did not update this input area. I created a new window and the input is there and now working.

This is definitely very very unexpected. We are not even quite sure what would cause that.

What if you remove the Moving Average study from the chart and add it again.

I have added and removed many studies, same thing. At least with a new window, its working now.

There must have been something that was done with that chart that caused the High and Low Subgraphs to be no longer named.

It would seem unlikely though if you removed all studies from the chart and added new instances of them that you would notice this.

You are correct. I deleted everything except number bars. I added moving average and all inputs were there.
