Multi Range Strategy Question

[RJay]

NT,

I want to see 4 lines plotted on my 2 Tick Range Chart.
Here is the code so far.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

protectedoverridevoid Initialize()

{

Add("", PeriodType.Range , 4);
Add("", PeriodType.Range , 6);
Add("", PeriodType.Range , 8);


Add(TRIXoverlayGreen(3, 4.5, 3.75));
Add(TRIXoverlayGreen(BarsArray[1],3, 4.5, 3.75));
Add(TRIXoverlayGreen(BarsArray[2],3, 4.5, 3.75));
Add(TRIXoverlayGreen(BarsArray[3],3, 4.5, 3.75));

CalculateOnBarClose = true;

}

///<summary>
/// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)
///</summary>

protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()

{

if (BarsInProgress == 0)

{
// Do Something
}

if (BarsInProgress == 1)

{
// Do Something
}

if (BarsInProgress == 2)

{
// Do Something
}

if (BarsInProgress == 3)

{
// Do Something
}

--------------------------------------------------------------
Is it possible to plot these 4 lines on the same chart through this strategy?

What needs to be added to each "bar in progress" make this happen?

Thanks,

RJay

Add("", PeriodType.Range , 4);
Add("", PeriodType.Range , 6);
Add("", PeriodType.Range , 8);

You need to type in a symbol name to add those symbols. If you just want whatever is selected by the chart, remove that parameter.

You cannot plot other series' data onto the primary time frame.

I was looking for a solution to my problem, which is I cannot get my indicator to compile with the following line of code in the initialize section:

Add(PeriodType.Range, 9);

I get a "No overload for method 'Add' takes '2' arguments" error message. Noticed there was another thread regarding this specific problem, but the solution was unclear to me - something about removing spaces??

Regardless, what I want to do is plot a channel on my chart (same symbol, different bar type and timeframe) using range bar data. However, I see from Josh's reply to a previous post that "You cannot plot other series' data..." onto a chart, if I understand correctly. Is this still the case and will it change in NT7?

Thanks!
