Possible to have indicator use different series?

[halgo_boulder]

Is it possible to use a different data series than the primary chart in an indicator?
i.e. chart is 5 minutes.. but indicator is using a range bar type.

OK... I have a strategy I've built with multiple data series already. Just had not tried adding multiple data series to an indicator with different bar types. I will just give it a shot and see if it works.

Hello halgo_boulder,

Thanks for your notes.

You could use the AddDataSeries() method to add a secondary series to use in your script.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.

AddDataSeries(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...dataseries.htm
Working with Multi-TimeFrame/Multi-Instrument NinjaScripts: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nstruments.htm

We also have reference samples you could view that come default with NinjaTrader demonstrating adding a secondary series to a script. To view the scripts, open a New > NinjaScript Editor window, open the Strategies folder, and double-click on the SampleMultiTimeFrame or SampleMultiInstrument file.

The link works fine for me in Firefox.

Good reading about 'bad' links is here.
