Please mind the capitalization:

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public StringSeries BarDotColor
{
get { return barDotColor; } // Allows our public barDotColor StringSeries to access and expose our interal barDotColor StringSeries
}

Another Multi Time Frame Question

I want CalculateOnBarClose = true to apply to the primary bar object, but I want CalculateOnBarClose = false to apply to the secondary bar object.

In a multi time frame strategy, can I do the following ?

protected override void Initialize()
{
CalculateOnBarclose = True;
...
}

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if (BarsInProgress == 1)
{
...
CalculateOnBarClose = False;
}
}

No.

CalculateOnBarClose is set for all series in a strategy. What you can do though is:

if (BarsInProgress == 0 && FirstTickOfBar)
{
// Process on the opening tick of a bar. Reference Close[1] to get the prior bar close etc...
}
else if (BarsInProgress == 1)
{
// Process each tick
}

Thanks !

Will make a note of it.

Hi:

I want evaluate the close price of the DJIA index at 2 pm EST and execute an order on the Dow Future, which is traded for the next few minutes. Unless orders are executed in the interim, I want to exit at the next close of the DJIA index, one trading day later. The Dow index is added with index 1

If I use:

if (BarsInProgress == 1 && FirstTickOfBar)
{
// Process on the opening tick of a bar. Reference Close[1] to get the prior bar close etc...
if Closes [1][0] < Closes [1][1]......
}
else if (BarsInProgress == 0)
{
// Process each tick
}

this would execute at the open the next day, would it not? Or does the 'FirstTickOfBar' condition evaluate to true as soon as the bar closes? In addition, how can I have my exit order trigger at 2 pm the next day if an open position still exists?

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

It depends on what your bar series are. The FirstTickOfBar only evaluates to true when a new bar starts. This is the same event of when the old bar closes. For a time filter please see this reference sample: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/v...ead.php?t=3226

Multi Time Frame Indicator

Question on a multi time frame indicator. The following code works on a multi time frame STRATEGY, no problem. But on an INDICATOR, I'm getting a CS1501 (no overload for method 'Add' takes '2' arguments) compiler error.

// Add a 987 Tick bar object to the strategy
Add(PeriodType.Tick,987);
// Add a 1597 Tick bar object to the strategy
Add(PeriodType.Tick,1597);

Multi time frame indicators are supported ? Right ?

Multi time frame indicators are not supported at this time, only strategies.
