Decimal precision of a column

[GaryAlbers]

How do I change the decimal precision of a column in Market Analyzer?
The output value is a DataSeries and has this code:

public DataSeries Status
{
get { return Values[0]; }
}

Thanks,
Gary

Unfortunately this is beyond what we provide support for.

However, here is a hint: please take a look at the method
>> protected override string Format(double value)
.. in the file MarketAnalyer/@AskPrice.cs

Ah interesting. I understand that NinjaTrader Support can't provide support for such methods, but because the default NetChange in the Market Analyzer doesn't work on EOD data (when there is no connection to a data provider), I'm struggling to find a work around for this. So, I hope that perhaps other forum users can help me find the error in the following code in my indicator:

If there is another way to let the Market Analyzer work with Historical data (instead of the OnMarketData method) I would love to hear about this.

You likely miss this check above - do you see any errors in the log tab of the Control Center when trying to load this snippet you've created?

Thanks Bertrand.

The error I receive is (translated from Dutch so on an English Windows version it might look somewhat different):

NinjaTrader.Indicator.MANetChange.Format(double): not founded a suitable method to overwrite - CS0115

If I need to guess, I'd say that it doesn't work because with an custom indicator you use a DataSeries, whereas the default Market Analyzer indicators only use one value (the most recent OnMarketData value).

The code snippet you picked is for a MA column, not an indicator I believe...
