AddChartIndicator, missing?

[AndBro]

Hello, I can’t use AddChartIndicator !!! It is not find when compiling (nor by intellisense ). I use 8.0.0.11 64-bit (Multi-Broker) – BETA. What am I missing?

else if (State == State.Configure)
{
AddChartIndicator(SMA(20));
}

gives error code CS0103.

Thank you, AndBro

Hello,
Please ensure that you are using this for a strategy. This method is only accessible from a strategy.
If you are needing to add an indicator to an indicator a workaround would be to create a plot and then set the value of that plot to the indicator you are wanting.
For example :

if( State == State.SetDefaults_
{
        AddPlot(Brushes.Orange, "MySma");
}

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
        MySma[0] = SMA(20)[0];
}

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore]
public Series<double> MySma
{
	get { return Values[0]; }
}

If we can be of any other assistance please let us know.
