How do I add second time series to strategies chart?

[damo666]

Hi,

I want to add a second time series to my chart so it displays in a second panel with "equidistant" spacing (eg. 1min & 5min candles)

How do I do this in my strategy via the code?

When I add a second time series it doesnt display on the chart.

Also I do not know how to set the panel for a time series

This is what I want

NT7 states the following but I can not find the code to do this anywhere

"New Multi-Series Charting

You can now mix multiple series on a single chart without limitations seen in other platforms. We have introduced a new chart level property "Equidistant bar spacing" which is automatically set to false when mixing more than one series. What this does is creates a time axis that is void of any missing bars so that mixed series of any type can all be accurately aligned to time. When this property is set to true, bars have even space between them and missing time bars are excluded.

Many thanks

In Control Center, File->New Chart, and keep adding away what you want.

Your default template probably won't work on a multiseries, so choose NONE.

Or, on the chart, right click, then "data series", then add new series to the chart.

Adding it manually is not the issue, the issue is adding it in my strategys code.

I can add a new time series and access the bars but I do not know how to get it to display the second time series when running my strategy or back testing it.

Cant be done. Has to be done manually if you want that.

Well that would explain why I am having so much dificulty!

Is this ever going to be a feature?

I guess I will just have to make a price like indicator to do it...
