Unable to display custom value in the Market Analyzer Column

[zextra]

I am trying to display a value in the Market Analyzer Column
I am trying this code (according to this page https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...zer_column.htm)

protected override void OnMarketData(MarketDataEventArgs marketDataUpdate)
{
CurrentValue = marketDataUpdate.Price;
}

During compilation I am getting the error

The name 'CurrentValue' does not exist in the current context.

Please advise

Hello Zextra,
Thanks for your post.

Are you creating this as an indicator or is this code being used inside the "MarketAnalyzerColumns" namespace?

[zextra]

Ah ok, I got it now.

Can you please tell me how to check if the indicator is an instance of MarketAnalyzerColumns?

You would see it near the top of your code. A MarketAnalzyer Column also will display under the appropriate "MarketAnalzyerColumns" folder in the NinjaScript Editor.

namespace NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.MarketAnalyzerColumns

The issue I have is that the indicator draws graphical lines on the chart, and hence the drawing part needs to be disabled when loading the indicator in the market analyzer. How can I check in the indicator code, I need something like this

if (Not loaded in market analyzer)
{
// Draw the ilne
}

The indicator already will not be able to draw drawing objects when used in the Market Analyzer, so there will be no special considerations you need to make there. Are you seeing that when you attach an indicator to your Market Analyzer that it is drawing on your chart?
