This PriceInfo indicator is really old. It is now part of a collection of indicators call ZombiePack9. See attachment. Reach out to me if you have any questions.

No worries. I have attached the ZombiePack9 NinjaScript addon zip. It contains an updated PriceInfo indicator that shows the excess margin while in a trade in the bottom left corner.


The excess intraday margin code looks like this...

private double GetAccountIntradayExcessMargin()
{
double intradayExcessMargin = 0;

if (account != null)
{
intradayExcessMargin = Math.Round(account.Get(AccountItem.ExcessIntradayM argin, Currency.UsDollar), 2);
}

return intradayExcessMargin;
}

Hi! I have found NinjaTrader_Jim's indicator PositionDisplayIndicator (on Ecosystem) very helpful, but every time I flip connection between my Apex Trader Funding Rithmic account and my live AMP account, I have to update the indicator to reselect the account to use. Could you please create a version of the indicator that drives the account selection in the indicator from the account selected in the chart automatically?

Hello vickisb,

The intention of the Account being selected in the indicator parameters instead of chart trader is so that the indicator can function if chart trader is disabled.

Using the account selector of chart trader would mean this must be enabled before the indicator is added to the chart or the indicator will not function.

As this puts a limit on how the indicator can be used, instead of making the change to the script on the User App Share I can provide you information on making this change to a local copy of the script on your machine.

Below is a link to a guide on using AutomationIDs to retrieve chart trader UI elements.

As well as a link to an example with sample code of getting the chart trader account selector and setting the local account variable to the selected account.
