Ok, my brain is about to explode. I'm sure someone with a little more knowledge than me can help. Most of my experience writing C# has been for small programs where I don't need to worry about inheritance and such. Fairly basic stuff.

So I have a few classes set up. One class has two values, the SymbolName and the data for that Symbol.

I have a sublist of that setup to house two different data sets of type SharePrices.

I am trying to figure out a way to add TradeBar data to the list of completeData for each symbolData for each corresponding SymbolName.

Basically I need to populate SharePrices, each minute, store that in list completeData which will happen for each symbolData corresponding to each SymbolName. I hope I explained that right. Any help is appreciated.

I have it set up to AddSecurity() correctly at initialization. But I can't seem to figure out how to add data more than one level deep.

public void AddSecurities()
{
for(int i = 0; i < symbolsList.Count; i++)
{
AddSecurity(SecurityType.Equity, symbolsList.ElementAt(i).ToString(), Resolution.Minute);
}
}
public void AddSymbols_toList()
{
for(int i = 0; i < SymbolsForAlgorithm.Length; i++)
{
symbolsList.Add(new SymbolList { SymbolName = SymbolsForAlgorithm[i]});
}
}
public class SymbolList
{
public string SymbolName { get; set; }
public List symbolData { get; set; } = new List();

public override string ToString()
{
return String.Format("{0}", SymbolName);
}
}
public class SymbolData
{
public List completeData { get; set; } = new List();
public List windowData { get; set; } = new List();
}
public class SharePrices
{
public DateTime Date { get; set; }
public decimal Price { get; set; }

public override string ToString()
{
return String.Format("{0}", "{1}", Date, Price);
}
}
