Same indicators, different PlotStyle

[antonek]

Hi,

I am trying to add one indicator twice with different PlotStyle:
1. CCI(50) with PlotStyle=Line
2. CCI(50) with PlotStyle=Bar

I would like to have them both in my strategy in same panel but I can't manage that...my code for the first CCI(50) is:

protected override void Initialize() {
    CCI(50).Panel = 1;
    CCI(50).Plots[0].Pen.Color = Color.Black;
    CCI(50).Lines[0].Pen.Color = Color.Red;
    CCI(50).Lines[0].Value = 190;
    CCI(50).Lines[1].Pen.Color = Color.Blue;
    CCI(50).Lines[2].Pen.Color = Color.Black;
    CCI(50).Lines[3].Pen.Color = Color.Blue;
    CCI(50).Lines[4].Pen.Color = Color.Red;
    CCI(50).Lines[4].Value = -190;
    Add(CCI(50));
...
}

Please advise, thank you.

Hello antonek,
You can only assign one plot style to any particular indicator.

You can however create a copy of the CCI indicator (say name it CCI1) and can reference it in your strategy.

• In Control Center menu bar goto Tools>Edit NinjaScirpt>Indicaor
• Open the CCI indicator, right click on it
• In the context menu click on Save as, and save it as CCI1

Now you can reference it as

CCI(50).Plots[0].PlotStyle = PlotStyle.Bar;
CCI1(50).Plots[0].PlotStyle = PlotStyle.Line;
Add(CCI(50));
Add(CCI1(50);

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.

That could be the workaround I am looking for. Thanks.
