Indicator pull in indicator as second series

[light65536]

I am trying to pull in a second indicator as a second series. But I can't get it to work.

This doesn't work...
Add("SMA(ES 09-12,14)", BarsPeriod.Id, BarsPeriod.Value);

I added the SMA to my chart. How do can I pull in an indicator as a second series to an indicator ? Is there something for indicators like BarsArrays for series?

It looks like its not possible.... if it is possible.. appreciate the help!

Just add a second plot or a new DataSeries to your indicator. Then call the SMA and set the value of that plot / data series to the value of the SMA.

Harry,

This doesn't work when we want to allow the user to be able to select an indicator as an input to an indicator as a second data series. It is possible to "hack" around this by coding in a switch statement (which is what I will do). But, it requires special coding for each indicator supported and it is not possible to support own user created indicators.

This is a design flaw but I will work around.
Thanks
