Any way to access to the Bid and Ask Prices?

Is there any way to access Bid or Ask prices in NinjaScript?

Try GetCurrentAsk(), GetCurrentAskVolume(), GetCurrentBid() and GetCurrentBidVolume(). Also check out this reference sample: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/v...ead.php?t=3478

Thanks this helps alot! How often does the indicator get updated? It appears that it's only twice per bar--at the open and at the close.

Is there a way to make it update every tick--or better yet--on a timer like 100 ms?

Sincerely,

Thanks. I agree with the comment in the documentation that processing every tick can be CPU intensive.

Is there a way to set a timer and call the GetCurrentAsk(), GetCurrentBid(), every 100 milliseconds or something like that?

Wait a minute. I could check the elapsed time when every tick arrives at OnBarUpdate() and ignore them until 100 ms has passed before processing.

Any thoughts or advice?

Sincerely,

Checking the time approach for sure would work.
