How to produce custom OHLC bars?

[molecool]

Let's say I have four data series that I *somehow* compute:

DataSeries opens = new DataSeries(this, MaximumBarsLookBack.Infinite);
DataSeries highs= new DataSeries(this, MaximumBarsLookBack.Infinite);
DataSeries lows= new DataSeries(this, MaximumBarsLookBack.Infinite);
DataSeries closes= new DataSeries(this, MaximumBarsLookBack.Infinite);

Now, how do I merge those into an OHLC bar and plot it as a custom indicator in a separate panel?

Thanks!

molecool, you can take a look at the value charts implementations shared here for ideas how to realize this - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=7605

Please try again ;-)

ValueCharts indicator does not seem to work in the NT7:

"Unable to create instance of 'NinjaTrader.Indicator.ValueCharts'. Most likely there is no default constructor defined, or the default constructor does not work correctly: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation."

molecool, that might be the case as it would use unsupported methods - here's another one that should chart fine - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...uechart&desc=1

The regular HeikenAshi implementation might help you as well by providing a starting point.

@NinjaTrader_Bertrand: This indicator you mention does not update anymore as soon as I have chart properties set to "Equidistant Bar Spacing = False". Any idea how to fix this ?

That could be the case Ronny, unfortunately I would not be familiar with the custom code used.
