Plot beyond the current bar (Seasonal indicator)

[lakman184]

Hi,

I would like to develop a seasonal indicaor for futures.

Is it possible to plot a line beyond the current bar that is displayed on the chart?

See screenshot below, I want do plot something that is in the red rectangle. A plot value for the last bar on the chart can be addressed with Value[0] = x. How can I address the space on the chart x bars more to the right?

Hello lakman184,

NinjaTrader does not support drawing objects or plots in the blank area to the right of the last bar. This is mostly due to a lack of support for predicting bar closing time slots with all bar types.

However, you can custom render any shape you would like anywhere on the chart including the blank area.

Included with NinjaTrader is the SampleCustomRender. Below is a link to another example.

If you wanted to estimate a distance and price in the future and calculate a ratio that would change the angle with the chart with custom logic, this might be possible to do.
