Hello currencychick,

The sample that was linked is still available in this thread, it is in post 2. If you wanted the other modifications noted in this thread you would have to make those changes, there was no other version posted here.

Only a screenshot is attached, there's no indicator attached....

Hello davydhnz,

Thanks for your note.

I see that there is only a screenshot of the indicator mentioned. You could create your own indicator that accomplishes this by calling Draw.TextFixed as mentioned by my colleague Jesse on post #12.

To create a NinjaScript indicator, open a New > NinjaScript Editor window, select the '+' tab at the bottom of the Editor window, select 'New Indicator'. Then, you could set up as much of the indicator as possible in the Indicator Builder. This will create the framework of the indicator or strategy

Once you finish setting up as much as possible in the Indicator Builder, you could add your Draw.TextFixed method to the OnBarUpdate section of the script similar to the code seen in post #12.

Below is a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript.

And, see this help guide page for more information and sample code: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._textfixed.htm

Let me know if I may assist further.

Better with alarms and alt time zones.

10,000 years ago they were building Stonehenge and Pyramids to keep the time and here we are with state of the art computers and software for trading millions of dollars in the blink of an eye and the fkg software can't easily display the exact market time in seconds, whilst billion dollar hedge funds build milli second response bots.... whoever left the clock out really needs their head examined.....

Does anyone have a clock indicator they can share? I seem to be having lag issues and I'm trying to figure out what time NT8 thinks it is vs the actual time of the last data received.

Hello Conceptzx,

Thanks for your notes.

NinjaTrader 8 does not come with a clock indicator by default that functions as you have described. You could search the NinjaTrader Ecosystem User App Share for a possible solution.
