Minimize Trend Window when connected to Simulated Data Feed

[mgbloomfield]

When connected to the Simulated Data Feed, how do I minimize the Trend Window? It is "always on top", and it's... ummm... annoying to look at it and distracts me when looking at the chart.

If "Trend" can't be minimized, then I would want to move the "Trend" functionality into the chart. Integrate "trend" somewhere on the chart with the up/down arrow keys or something. Or put "trend" up/down buttons on the menu/toolbar.

Hello mgbloomfield,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately, there is no way to minimize the Trend Slider.

I will forward your suggestions on to development for future consideration.

Console application to move the Trend Slider window to the bottom of the Z Order

Fellow Traders/Programmers,
The following attachment, TrendBottom.zip, contains a console application, TrendBottom.exe, that will move the Trend window to the bottom of the Z Order.

1) Download TrendBottom.zip
2) Unzip to get TrendBottom.exe
3) When NinjaTrader is running and when you're using the Simulated Data Feed and you want the Trend Slider window to be on the bottom of all the windows, then execute TrendBotton.exe

Remember, when you restart NinjaTrader, the Trend Slider window will stay on top again.

With Win32 APIs, there's always a way :-)

Enjoy,
Michael
