Runtime error

I am trying to pass the tick data for three currency pairs to the event handler. I've added this to my initialization:

            AddSecurity(SecurityType.Forex, "EURUSD", Resolution.Tick, true);
            AddSecurity(SecurityType.Forex, "EURJPY", Resolution.Tick, true);
            AddSecurity(SecurityType.Forex, "USDJPY", Resolution.Tick, true);

It would be easier to solve this issue if there was an algorithm attached. The securities are added in the correct manner when running a simple subscription test the data is being correctly fed into OnData(). I suggest using data.ContainsKey("EURJPY") in order to determine when this issue exists. Logging and debugging are helpful tools for situations like this.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I have sorted out this issue but unfortunately have run in to another issue. All I'm trying to do is perform some simple mathematical operations on the exchange rates. So for example, how would I subtract the value of two different exchange rates. At the moment, all I can find in the documentation to call the tick data is data["EURJPY"] but of course you cannot do something like data["EURJPY"]-data["EURUSD"] or data["EURJPY"-"EURUSD"] because these are strings and lists. But what I am trying to do is simply define a placeholder like...

double differencePrice = data["EURJPY"]-data["EURUSD"] (of course I know you cannot do this)

I have in the initialization it set to tick data, and so on each tick I need it to store this value (something similar actually) so that I can perform mathematical operations on it. To crystalize what I'm trying to do:

Each time there is a new tick, I want to assign the difference to a variable for later use in the algo.

THanks

I believe you can do var Difference = data["EURJPY"].Close - data["EURUSD"].Close;

This is what happens:

            Debug(MispricingUSDJPY);    
            
        }
    }
    
    
    
    
    
    
}

and i get the error:

Ok, I got it to work, but I had to use the seconds resolution instead of the "tick". If you find any ways to use the tick data that would be awesome, thanks again for all input/replys.
