Exposing unirenko in NT8 indicator

[Semion.AI.]

Hello, How do I expose the unirenko bar type in an indicator of NT8 for using this as BarInProgress ?
I do have the unirenko bar type working well on a chart, but can't figure out how to expose it for the indicator.
Thanks, Semion.

Hello Semion.AI.

Thanks for your post.

You would need to add a data series for a custom BarType to accomplish this.

When adding a data series for a custom BarType, the AddDataSeries overload using a BarsPeriod must be used. This BarsPeriod must be made with the BarType's index casted to BarsPeriodType. This can be referenced in the custom BarType's source code, or the can be asked from the BarType's developer.

Other BarsPeriod properties will also have to be supplied to configure the BarType. The BarsPeriod documentation page can be referenced for how NinjaTrader uses these properties. Their usage likely will vary for the custom BarType, so referencing that source code or consulting the developer is advised.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.

You could find an example script made by my colleague Jim that demonstrates adding a custom BarsType for UniRenko in this forum post: https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...360#post827360
