BarColor based on Slow Stochastic

[timokrates]

Hi All,

I would like to create an indicator based on the %D slope of the 12, 5, 5 slow stochastic. So if the %D turns up the bars should be green, if it turns down the color should be red.

I have to say that I have no experience in creating indicators at all. So this seems to be tough.

Help is highly appreciated...thanks

Here is what I found in the help guide as an example:

// Sets the bar color to yellow
BarColor = Color.Yellow;
// Sets the bar color to its default color as defined in the chart properties dialog
BarColor = Color.Empty;
// Sets the bar color to yellow if the 20 SMA is above the 50 SMA and the closing
// price is above the 20 SMA (see image below)
if (SMA(20)[0] > SMA(50)[0] && Close[0] > SMA(20)[0])
BarColor = Color.Yellow;

Unfortunately we don't provide support down to the level actually coding an indicator, but here is the general direction:
- you would need to custom code a new NS indicator
- this indicator likely will need to use the Stochastics() function
- the Stoachstics provides a "D" data series which you could access for comparison

As a last resort a certified NinjaScript consultant would be at your help: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/pa...injaScript.htm

Ok, thanks.

Without any experience in coding, creating an indicator is impossible for me...
Hoped that this could have been done easier.
