I'm looking to pass the tradeBar data from my monthly consolidator to my OnData where I will use against the minute data to determine when to take trades. I believe the answer is from Richard Hale Shaw in this thread
https://www.quantconnect.com/forum/discussion/1822/how-can-i-schedule-an-event-handler-and-have-the-data-availablebut I can't figure out how to code it.
I have the data accessible from 'def startOfMonth' where I will perform more calculations but how do I pass the latest data from here into OnData for trading?

Ah, I know the pro's are shaking their heads at this one. I was misunderstanding how to make the global variable, and then structure to continuously update the variable as my consolidation is triggered - I found the consolidator training on boot camp and was able to think through it.
Hope this helps others.
