Daily SMA on Intraday Chart

[doug_p]

In ThinkOrSwim I can have daily simple moving averages displayed on my intraday charts. Their code looks like this.

input price = FundamentalType.CLOSE;
input aggregationPeriod = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input period_SMA20 = 20;
input period_SMA50 = 50;
input period_SMA100 = 100;
input period_SMA200 = 200;
input displace = 0;
input averageType = AverageType.SIMPLE;
plot SMA_20 = MovingAverage(averageType, Fundamental(price, period = aggregationPeriod), period_SMA20);
plot SMA_50 = MovingAverage(averageType, Fundamental(price, period = aggregationPeriod),period_SMA50);
plot SMA_100 = MovingAverage(averageType, Fundamental(price, period = aggregationPeriod),period_SMA100);
plot SMA_200 = MovingAverage(averageType, Fundamental(price, period = aggregationPeriod),period_SMA200);

Is there a way for NinjaTrader to display daily moving averages on the intraday charts?

Thanks

Hello,

Yes, this is possible.

It would be easy to do through the user interface itself. Please see the following video on how to add multiple data series to a chart and calcualte an indicator from the added data series:

It would also be possible using custom programming to have indicator display this information as well. I'd suggest reviewing our Help Guide article on Multi-Time Frame Indicators for information on how this would be done:

Hello!
How can we do the same thing, but coding in strategy script?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Vvu1980,

You can add multiple data series by using the Add() function with NinjsScript.

Additionally, please take a look the link below on how to use multiple time frames with NinjaScript and how that data is referenced.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Can you help me more exactly!?
For example, this sentence corect for adding 120-min KAMA chart to 30-min main chart?

KAMA PlotC = KAMA(BarsArray[2], 2, periodKAMA, 30);
Add(new Plot(Color.Green, "PlotC"));

Hi Vvu1980,

You add the 120 minute time frame from the initialize section of the code

protected override void Initialize()
{
			Add("AAPL", PeriodType.Minute, 120); // BarsArray [1]
                        Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Orange), PlotStyle.Line, "KAMALine"));
}

Then you can add the KAMA to the new plot using the BarsArray[1]

private override void OnBarUpdate()
{
      KAMALine.Set(KAMA(BarsArray[1], 2, periodKAMA, 30));

}

You will also need to add a properties code for the plot data series

#region Properties
        [Browsable(false)]	
        [XmlIgnore()]		
        public DataSeries KAMALine
        {
            get { return Values[0]; }
        }
#endregion
