Store Indicator Value At Bar Open

  I am able to identify the opening tick of a new X-tick bar using the below code, but is there a way to store a value at this point in time?

  With each new tick that arrives, the value of my indicator changes but I would like to compare it to the value at the bar open (which will be different from the previous bar close value).

  As soon as the “NewBarOnChart” is false (from tick 2 onwards), I lose the opening value of my indicator. Can I somehow store it?

  // -> Bar On Chart
  CurrTime = CurrentTime + (10000 * TimeZoneAdjustment)
  LastBarOnChart = (Date = Today)
  LastBarOnChart = LastBarOnChart AND (CurrTime = OpenTime)
  LastBarOnChart = LastBarOnChart AND (Time >= CurrTime)
  NewBarOnChart = LastBarOnChart
  NewBarOnChart = NewBarOnChart AND (Time = OpenTime)

  This is a common problem because variables are reset at their default values, each new tick received, in the current bar.
