Same condition on two time frames

[klior14]

Hi
How do I develop one strategy that contains same condition on two different time frames?

For example -
If stochastic indicator is over 80 in 5 minutes frame and in 1 minute frame -->enter short

Thanks,
Lior

Hello Lior,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the Forums.

In the initialize section of the strategy you would add the second data series. Then in the OnBarUpdate() you would reference the indicators based on the BarsArray[n] where n would be added dataseries (in case you have more than 1).

Please see the helpguide section here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...nstruments.htm

Thanks for the quick answer.
Is there any option to do it through the wizard as well?

Hello Lior,

Thanks for your reply.

In Ninjatrader 7 the strategy wizard can only work with the charts dataseries as the input. You could create the basic strategy and then unlock the code to then edit directly in Ninjascript to add the multi timeframe coding.

In NinjaTrader 8 the strategy builder provides for the ability to create Multi time frame or series strategies.
