Adding Bartypes to script

[Semion.AI.]

I wish to test some additional bartypes in my indicator, such as BetterRenko, Wicked Renko, UniRenko, HeikinAshi and Kagi. How do I correctly define these in State.Configure section.

Thanks.

Hello Semion.A.I.

Thanks for your post.

To add an additional data series to a script, you could use AddDataSeries().

AddHeikenAshi() could be used to add a HeikenAshi data series to a script.

AddKagi() could get used to add a Kagi data series to a script.

AddRenko() would be used to add a Renko data series to a script.

To add custom bars types/data series to your script which is installed on your system, you could do so by casting the registered enum value for that BarsPeriodType as noted in the Tips section of the AddDataSeries() help guide page.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.

AddKagi(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...t8/addkagi.htm
AddRenko(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...8/addrenko.htm
AddHeikenAshi(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...heikenashi.htm

Let me know if I may assist further.

Thanks much Brandon H.
Anything about Wicked Renko ... ?

Hello Semion.A.I.

Thanks for your note.

WickedRenko would be considered a custom barstype and you would need to define it as a custom barstype in your script.

See the Tips section of the AddDataSeries() help guide page which notes adding a custom barstype to a NinjaScript.

Let me know if I may assist further.
