how to check if reference bars are closed

I'm using the following code to reference the OHLC from another graph:

SCGraphData BaseGraphData;
sc.GetChartBaseData(ChartStudy.GetChartNumber(), BaseGraphData);

As I understand it, BaseGraphData will contain the OHLC arrays. But how do I determine whether the bars from the reference graph are closed ie is there an equivalent for sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus() for reference arrays?

Also is there an equivalent for sc.AreRenkoBars() for reference arrays?

Thanks

All bars in BaseGraphData are considered closed except for the last one. The array size can be determined with:
BaseGraphData[sc_LAST].GetArraySize()



Also is there an equivalent for sc.AreRenkoBars() for reference arrays?
No.

So is there anyway to tell if the BaseGraphData bars are Renko Bars?

Is there anyway to get the handle of the entire reference chart sc object?

Something like:

sc.GetChartHandle(ChartStudy.GetChartNumber(), ref_sc);

ref_sc.AreRenkoBars();

No there is not.

However, what you can do is automatically open a chart according to your specifications:
