    What template is it charged in chart?

    Hello,

    is there any way to know what template chart is charged in the current chart?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello Xavier,

    Unfortunately there is no way to see what chart template is loaded. I suggest to create an additional chart and select your chart templates one by one. Check which template matches the chart in question.

      If you notice, when you attach an indicator to a chart the name is listed just below
      the icons. But, when you attach a strategy template there is no name displayed
      anywhere. The solution is to create an indicator that will display the name. Follow
      these steps.

      In the Control Center go to: Tools>New NinjaScript>Indicator. This will
      open a wizard. Click on: Next>. Name the Indicator. (I used TemplateName) Describe
      the Indicator if you wish. Then make sure "Overlay on price" is checked. Now click
      on: Next>. Input Parameter window will open. Under the column "Name" delete any
      names listed so that the name column names spaces are blank. The other columns
      don't matter. Click on "Next>". Plots window will appear. Same as before- Make sure
      the "Name" column is blank. Click on "Next>". Oscillator lines window will popup.
      Do the same as the last two windows. With the "Name" column blank click on "Next>".
      Now click "Finish".

      A window will popup revealing the source code for the indicator. Click on the
      "Compile" icon (5the icon from the end of the row.) When you hear a chime your
      indicator is now created and ready for use. Close the indicator source code window.

      Next: On a chart click on the "Indicators" icon (3rd icon from the end). Click on
      the name of the indicator (Mine is "TemplateName"). Click on "New". On the right
      hand of the window- where it says "Label" you will see the name of the indicator. To
      the right of the indicator name type in the name of the template that you have
      attached to the chart you are currently accessing. (Mine says: TemplateName ) If the
      name of the strategy is say " TrendDirection" in my case the "Label" will now read:
      TemplateName ( TrendDirection ) [ I added parenthesis and spaces to make it easier
      to see on the chart ] Now click "Apply". (The template name should now be on you
      chart.) Now click "OK" on the "Indicators" operational New Remove window to close
      it.

      Your next step is to save the template so that the name will be permanently attached
      to the template. You know- right click on the chart>Templates>Save As. I hope this
      helps. Maybe Ninja Trader will add this or something similar to their list of other
      indicators as part of their platform.
