Generic Indicator Overlay on price

[NinjaTrader_ChrisL]

Hello outsource,

Thank you for the reply.

This may be done like so:

protected override void OnBarUpdate(){
   ...

   if(Values[0] == Close[0]){

        //do something

    }
   ...
}

Remember that you are responsible for filling the Values[] array with meaningful data. A good example would be the SMA.cs in C:\Users\<user name>\Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Indicator\@SMA.cs

This is a good example of 'filling up' the Values array.

If we may be of any further assistance, please let us know.

I tried it before,it doesn`t work.The code you`ve provided fires alerts non stop.Is there a real example that would really work?

Hi,Chris,

so is there any news for that one?

Here's a version that will play the alert a max of 1x per bar.


Also, there was a runtime error with the indicator trying to reference a prior bar on the first bar of the chart. That has been corrected

Hi, sbg,

was not an intention to just switch alerts for each bar.The point was to get an alert when the price touches the plot line.That was the only purpose.

I think it`s time to switch platforms and brokerage.You guys are decade too late comparing the other brokerage and platforms.Can`t even put together an indicator that been hanging here for a Decade!

Wish your still in the business in a couple of years from now.

Cheers!
