Tick Value on chart

[Trebor]

Hello, do someone know the code of indicator, where the value of each tick is shown on the chart? For example EUR/USD.. "Tick Value is $12.5"?

Hello Trebor,

Thanks for your post.

If I understand correctly you are wanting to understand the Dollars per tick value for a forex instrument.

This would be an extremely small value based on 1 forex unit.

You can pull the instrument "Point size" from Instrument.MasterInstrument.PointValue Reference: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...pointvalue.htm

The tick size of the instrument is available from TickSize: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../?ticksize.htm

So the dollars per tick would be TickSize * Instrument.MasterInstrument.PointValue.

The dollars per Forex units that you are using (Microlot, minilot or lot, would be TickSize * Instrument.MasterInstrument.PointValue.* Quantity.

I am not aware of an indicator that provides this.

Thank you for your answer. I know about these links, but I am not able to create an indicator from this...

Hello Trebor,

Thanks for your reply.

NinjaScripts are built on C#. While we do not provide programming education services in the Support Department, there are a vast number of educational C# resources external to NinjaTrader and we do have some tutorials and tools that can assist in the learning process.

Many users report that a good way to start before fully learning C# is to go through the NinjaTrader 7 NinjaScript tutorials in the help documentation to get a fundamental grasp on .NET framework and how it is used in NinjaScript. From there I suggest looking at the Code Breaking changes for NinjaTrader 8 to understand the differences between NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8.

You can view the tutorials for NinjaTrader 7 here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...?tutorials.htm

Although we do not currently provide NinjaScript tutorials like in NinjaTrader 7, we do provide in-depth help documentation on developing NinjaScripts for NinjaTrader 8. We also provide samples and a complete reference of the language. More in depth educational resources can be found elsewhere throughout the internet.

You can find the educational resources here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG..._resources.htm

Once you have a basic understanding of C#, I suggest following the documented Code Breaking changes between NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8. This page also gives an overview for NinjaScripts in NinjaTrader 8.

Other users have wrote in about this information in our support forums here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...d.php?p=488807

Also available are webinars on the NinjaScript editor and the Strategy Builder. The Strategy Builder can be used to generate NinjaScript syntax for NinjaScript strategies. You may wish to create a strategy and clicking View Code after each piece of logic created in the Builder to observe the generated syntax.

Our documentation will be your best friend while developing, and the complete supported NinjaScript interface can be referenced here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/

The information above is publicly available.

Finally, we also have a vast EcoSystem of NinjaScript Consultants that would be happy to write or modify any NinjaScript at your request. If those services interest you, we can have a representative of our EcoSystem reach out with more information.
