More than 4 plots in an indicator?

[FireFly]

Hi,

Is it possible to make an indicator with 5 plots on it? The wizard can generate up to 4 plots. Is there a way to get 5 plots in the indicator by manually adding some code? Is yes, how to do?

You need to manually edit the code and mimic any of input variables which are generated by the wizard.

Hi,

I had already tried that, but there seems to be some error because after manually adding code it doesn't display any indicator anymore (also the other 4 disappear). So I must be overlooking something...

I already had 4 plots, now I try adding one more:


protected override void Initialize()
{
Add(new Plot(Color.Orange, PlotStyle.Bar, "PRVm1"));
Add(new Plot(Color.Green, PlotStyle.Bar, "PRVm2"));
Add(new Plot(Color.DarkViolet, PlotStyle.Bar, "PRVm3"));
Add(new Plot(Color.Firebrick, PlotStyle.Bar, "PRVm4"));
ADDED --> Add(new Plot(Color.Blue, PlotStyle.Bar, "PRVm5"));



protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
PRVm1.Set(Close[0]);
PRVm2.Set(Close[0]);
PRVm3.Set(Close[0]);
PRVm4.Set(Close[0]);
ADDED --> PRVm5.Set(Close[0]);


#region Properties

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public DataSeries PRVm1
{
get { return Values[0]; }
}

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public DataSeries PRVm2
{
get { return Values[1]; }
}

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public DataSeries PRVm3
{
get { return Values[2]; }
}

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public DataSeries PRVm4
{
get { return Values[3]; }
}

ADDED --> [Browsable(false)]
ADDED --> [XmlIgnore()]
ADDED --> public DataSeries PRVm5
ADDED --> {
ADDED --> get { return Values[4]; }
ADDED --> }

Did you check your logs for error messages?

[FireFly]

I got this message:
"2007-07-12 16:08 Default Error on calling the 'OnBarUpdate' method for indicator 'PRV5min2' on bar 0: Index was outside the bounds of the array."

But after closing NT6 completely and restarting, now it does display 5 indicators!
(and no error message)

So either my PC configuration is unstable or there is still some bug in NT6.
Anyway, it works now!

Glad you got it resolved.
