having problems with several nt7/nt8 properties

[ttodua]

I am having problems to replicate these codes (coming from custom BarType) into NT8 and your help will be appreciated:

i.e. within:

public override void Add(Bars bars, ......., bool isRealtime)

i want alternatives for NT8:

isRealtime
bars.Session.NextBeginTime
bars.Session.NextEndTime
bars.Session.SessionsOfDay

Hello TazoTadua,

Thanks for your post.

NinjaTrader 7's Add in BarsTypes is handled by OnDataPoint in NinjaTrader 8.

bars.Session.NextBeginTime and bars.Session.NextEndTime is now controlled by a SessionIterator.

bars.Session.SessionsOfDay can be replaced with bars.TradingHours.Sessions.Count

isRealtime is no longer used and has been switched for isBar which tells us if the timestamp in OnDataPoint is for an already built bar or for an intraday timestamp. Functionality is slightly different, so you may wish to reference the existing NT7 BarsTypes in the bin/Custom/Types/@BarsType.cs file against the existing NT8 BarsTypes for implementation.

OnDataPoint - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ndatapoint.htm

SessionIterator - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...oniterator.htm

Bars.TradingHours.Sessions - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...s_sessions.htm

We look forward to being of further assistance.

thanks for help. I missed, there was "public override Gui.Chart.ChartStyleType[] ChartStyleTypesSupported" which restricted the selctable bar types. In NT8 i couldnt find alternative.

Hello TazoTodua,

Thanks for your question.

ChartStyleTypesSupported is not supported in NinjaTrader 8. We are tracking interest in this functionality in SFT-3002. I have added a vote on your behalf.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
