Exposed variable from Strategy to Indicator

[roblogic]

Hello,

I am trying to do that the same way I expose variables from indicators to strategies, but I see it is not working the same bidirectional way.

Is there a reliable way to achieve that?

Basically what I want is to plot a variable from the strategy, but I want it to plot it whenever I want by using an Input in the UI. The problem is if I do that within the strategy, if I don't want to plot my variable it still creates the lower panel... So I thought to expose it to an indicator just to work around this.

I appreciate your suggestions.

Hello roblogic,

We actually have a sample which demonstrates what you are asking. If you want to plot either IsOverlay or in a separate panel you can do that with an indicator. The sample we have demonstrates gathering values from a strategy to plot from an indicator:

In the sample, pay attention to how the indicator has a public Strategy property and how that is used to gather data. Also in the strategy how it passes its own instance to the indicator.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
