Creating custom market scan/ alert

[davecolclough]

I want to create a scanner covering a few markets/ timeframes, that will alert me when an entire body of a candle closes outside the upper or lower bollinger bands. I have started adding a few columns to the market analyzer so I can set up an alert system. However, I can see last close and opening prices for the session as column options, but not the last candle, which is what I need for this.

Can you assist?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Thanks for your post.

Unfortunately, this specific type of functionality and logic is not available by default and would need to be custom coded.

NinjaTrader is extensible in that you can create custom indicators using NinjaScript which is based on the modern C# programming language.

If you have limited time or programming capabilities, NinjaTrader Ecosystem is partnered with a number of consultants who could code this indicator at your direction. If you would like more information regarding consultants please let me know.

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.
