I think you have to use the OnTick() method but there are no RenkoBars built in so do you just use Bars?

Hi there,

OnBar() works for Renko and Range bars too.

RE:

So in the OnBars or OnTicks functions I could use any of these? where the DataSeries are the Renko values i.e irrespective of time.

DataSeries HighPrices { get; }
       .
        DataSeries OpenPrices { get; }
        //
        // Summary:
        //     Gets the Weighted prices data (High + Low + 2 * Close) / 4.
        DataSeries WeightedPrices { get; }
        //
        // Summary:
        //     Gets the Low price bars data.
        DataSeries LowPrices { get; }
        //
        // Summary:
        //     Gets the Close price bars data.
        DataSeries ClosePrices { get; }
        //
        // Summary:
        //     Gets the Tick volumes data.
        DataSeries TickVolumes { get; }
        //
        // Summary:
        //     Gets the Median prices data (High + Low) / 2.
        DataSeries MedianPrices { get; }
        //
        // Summary:
        //     Gets the Typical prices data (High + Low + Close) / 2.
        DataSeries TypicalPrices { get; }
