Overlay = true and false!

[AnotherTrader]

I am writing a custom indicator that is a combination of other indicators.

I need some of the indicator values to overlay price, and some not to overlay price.

With reference to the Indicator class's Initialize() method, how can I set this up to work? There I only seem to have the option Overlay = false, or Overlay = true.

Thanks.

Hello,

Unfortunately there is not supported way to do this without manually placing the multiple indicators onto the chart.

Alternatively you could add the separate indicators to a chart using a strategy but you cannot add() an indicator to an indicator

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Hello,
Now with introduction of Ninjatrader version 8 is it possible?
Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

This would still be the case for indicators specifically, because the overlay property is for that specific indicator it would apply to all plots of that indicator. You can utilize a strategy though to plot in multiple panels though, see the following example: http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...ead.php?t=6651

I look forward to being of further assistance.
