HIGH, LOW, dot on CLOSE Pricebars are Needed

[JimMM]

In my quest to crossover to Ninja from Tradestation ...

The first thing I noticed is Ninja ver 7 does NOT offer HIGH, LOW, dot on CLOSE PRICEBARS.

Many mentors and methodologies rely on this type of pricebar.... I myself have been using it for years, and cannot really see using any other type of pricebar on my main charts.

To describe the pricebar.... It is basically a O,C,H,L bar without the open

It looks like a HighLow bar & a Dot on close bar combined (no lines connecting the closedots.)

Hi Jim

I also use HLC bars, and while Ninja doesn't natively support them they are easily created. Simply select HL bars, and add an EMA indicator which displays as a dot, with a period of 1. Set it to refresh on each tick and there you have it.

A bit clunky, but it works.

Nice workaround, thanks for suggesting that.
