Yes I know that, but is not that I need

How can I declarate a Variable Externe on Eur/dol
and obtain it in my Dow Jones Strategy

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

Sorry, I'm not following. Can you please clarify what is " a Variable Externe on Eur/dol"? Where are you getting this?

[Pcomm69]

Thanks, I explain

I have a personal Indicator on Eur/dol with a Private value named "DirectionEuRDol"

In my Strategy on Dow Jones I need the value of "DirectionEuRDol"

How can I obtain the value of "DirectionEuRDol" in side Dow Jones stategy ...

I see. Thanks for the follow-up. This is possible. If the value is not a plot, then it will require additional structure in the indicator for the DirectionEuRDo variable.

There is an example of this available in the following sample:

You would follow the same structure that's used for ExposedVariable

Hello

Thanks for the exemple in ExposedVariable
I have add the good lines in my indicator and the compilation is good
no problem

but when I built my Strategy
when I select my indicator
it is impossible to add a line "ExposedVariable" > 5

Exposedvariable is not selectable in the menu item of the indicator in Strategy building

what is missing ?

thanks

The only items available from the strategy wizard are indicator plots. The exposed variable would be available but only when working in code.

Print(SampleBoolSeries().ExposedVariable);
