A question on DMI

[vitorleite]

On the Market Analyzer sheet, I have 2 columns: one for +DMI and another for -DMI. Is it possible to color for instance +DMI IF it's greater than -DMI? Or alternatively create a column that compute the difference between the +DMI and -DMI and color whwn the difference is positive?

Thanks

Hi vitorleite, welcome to the NinjaTrader support forums! Yes, you could create an indicator for the DI + / DI - difference and set up a color condition in the Market Analyzer then when the values are < > 0. Here are great tutorials to help you getting start in custom coding indicators in NinjaScript - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...verview18.html

Hi, for example if you create a new custom indicator, this will the call in the OnBarUpdate() to calculate the difference of the DIPlus and DIMinus -

[SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]double[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2][SIZE=2] myDmiValue = DM(Close, 10).DiPlus[[/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]0[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2][SIZE=2]] - DM(Close,10).DiMinus[[/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]0[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2][SIZE=2]];[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][SIZE=2][/SIZE][/SIZE]

Then you can plot the myDmiValue and uses the indicator to setup custom color conditions in the Market Analyzer - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...onditions.html
