Can we please get a Conditions and Actions section (similar to the strategy builder) for the Indicator Wizard so that we can plot simple signals? It should be easier to get this thing to draw a dot in it's own panel under bars that return a true test.

Hello trader3000a,

Are you wanting a plot line, or are you wanting to draw a drawing object from the 'Do the following' -> Drawing window?

Hi Chelsea, I want to see a dot under a bar on it's own panel on a flat horizontal plane if a condition is true.

Hello trader3000a,

While it is possible to draw a dot in the NinjaTrader 8 Strategy Builder, a strategy cannot draw objects in another panel. Only indicators can.

In the Do following section click add. In the Actions window open the Drawing folder. Select Draw dot. Set the Y to Prices -> Low[0], in the offset select Ticks, and enter -1 for the value. For the Tag click set and add a string in the string builder to Misc -> Current bar.

The 'Automate Your Trading with NinjaTrader's Strategy Builder' training video discusses drawing objects.

I am also including a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript.
