Display External Trades On Chart

[coinflip]

I have list of trades in file external to NT and would like to show these on chart. Is there some NT built-in import functionality to do this or would this be a NinjaScript routine to reference dynamically as chart is loaded? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

There is no built in method to import executions, but you could certainly display these on a chart using logic and NinjaScript. This is an item you would have to custom make to display your own data on the chart.

One item you would need is to read the file, we have a sample on that here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...ead.php?t=3476

You would need to create logic on how to parse the file, once you do you could utilize the Drawing objects and Bar times to place the executions on the chart.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
