transparent

[solvmatic]

if the primary bar color is set as transparent, my indicator won't get refreshed unless I manually reload the ninjascript.

my purpose is to see my indicator only, and hide the price bars.

Hi solvmatic,

This is not something I'm seeing here. What version of NinjaTrader are you using? Check with Help > About. Can you see the same thing when using built in indicator SMA, for example?

this issue happens after I reinstalled NJ and started using 64bit.

Please see the attached screenshot, and indicate what version yours shows in the highlighted area.

Please answer this question from my first reply:

[solvmatic]

Sorry, here is the version:

Ninjatrader 64-bit 7.0.1000.7 (Live)

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

Thanks. It would be helpful if you answered the SMA question so we can determine if what you are seeing happens with any indicators or is specific to your custom script.

[solvmatic]

The built-in SMA indicator plot is updated but my script is not.

do you need my code?

Are we really on version 7.0.1000.8, or is that still an internal build only?

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

Yes, if you share the code I will take a look.

Koganam - Latest release is 7, sorry for any confusion.

Correction:

after debug, I find that when the primary chart bar color set to Transparent, the Time[0] and Time[1] return same value. Other information, CalculateOnBarClose = false;

t = t + (Time[0].Subtract(Time[1]).TotalSeconds); //track time spent on this bar

Print(Time[0] +" "+Time[1]);



instead if use Time[1] and Time[2], works.

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

I'm not seeing this here. Below are the last couple lines of real time updating and Time[0] is never the same as Time[1].

Print("Bar: " + CurrentBar + " " + Time[0] +" "+Time[1]);

Bar: 5503 12/1/2011 1:59:00 PM 12/1/2011 1:58:00 PM
Bar: 5504 12/1/2011 2:00:00 PM 12/1/2011 1:59:00 PM

Can you please send your workspace file and complete script to support 'at' ninjatrader 'dot' com so I can setup the same here.

You'll find the xml file for the workspace in:
Documents\Ninjatrader 7\Workspaces

Please use File > Utilties > Export NinjaScript to export, and then attach your script from:
Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\custom\ExportNinjaScript.

Please send as simple a script as possible that will allow us to see this here. Strip out anything proprietary or non-critical in reproducing.

[solvmatic]

thanks for the support,
Will do later if have time, for now I can live using Time[1] and Time[2].
