Hello LadGta2018,

Thanks for your post.

This can be found with the BarsPeriod property of the script. This should be accessed only after State.DataLoaded has passed.

BarsPeriod - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...barsperiod.htm

The instrument can be read from the Instrument object.

Instrument - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...instrument.htm

We look forward to assisting.

Thanks for your help. Could you show me some code how to get string of Instrument and BarsPeriod? like: "This Chart is SPY 30 Min"


I tried to use:

TextString = "This Chart is " + Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name + BarsPeriod.BaseBarsPeriodValue + "Min";

but I got error:

"operator "+" cannot be applied to operands of type "method group" and "string"
