Strategy Plots Multi Instrument

Try using DrawRegion() and pass in the two separate indicators as inputs.

Hello there.

I have a question. Given a chart and an instrument plotted, say 6S, with its indicators in different panels, is it possible to add a further panel with an indicator which has as input series another instrument, say 6E?

There was a post about RSI but no further discussion.

michael fantoni, yes you can do this on a MultiSeries chart, here you could use all the bars series as input series to other indicators in the UI :

Thank you Bertrand.

I have another question, somehow unrelated but I couldnt find any thread in the forum. Lets take a chart with various indicators plotted in their respective panels. I would like to create a signal at once when some conditions are met. For example, lets say that CCI=48 and RSI=34. I would like the respective bars of each separate panel to be, say, yellow IFF above. I saw how to do it for a single indicator, in fact I managed to replicate it for mine but I would need some cross reference from several indicators at once, cross relate indicators. Is it possible?

michael, yes this would be possible either with custom coding in the NinjaScript editor or creating a strategy that would change the bar color as needed when your multiple indicators conditions trigger the signal as envisioned :

Thank you Bertrand.

I will go through the link. If you are aware of any example of such a thing uploaded in the forum or anywhere else, please do let me know.

Hi there

Anyone can help?
Im very new at programming. Im trying to convert Value.Set[0] to double for the momentum indicator. If I use the following command line:
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
Value.Set(CurrentBar == 0 ? 0 : Input[0] - Input[Math.Min(CurrentBar, Period)]);

if(Value[0]>0)
PlotColors[0][0] = upColor;

else

PlotColors[0][0] = dnColor;}
then it works as it should but if I try to use a non-integer figure it says error clearly. Where am I supposed to specify that I want Value.Set[0] a double? I tried few things and when it was compiling fine without errors then ninjatrader would shut down as soon as I would load the indicator on the chart.

michael fantoni, I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to create here or comparing, but the main value series of the indicator would be a double value.

Can you please attach the indicator that would produce the crash so we can check into?

Hi Bertrand and thank you.

I managed to do what I meant. Unfortunately, I deleted the indicator I was fiddling around with to start afresh and avoid using it and I cant remember what I put into it. I should keep all the scripts from now on.

Thank you and regards.

Yes, that's probably best for the learning experience : glad to hear you managed to get it resolved.
