Custom, sythetic quote

[natgasguy]

I searched for this topic but found not results, my apologies if it's been asked before. I would like to know if it's possible to create a custom or synthetic quote. Other platforms call these user defined formulas in some cases. For instance, could I create the gasoline crack spread is usually 3 crude contracts spread to 2 gasoline contracts & 1 heating oil contract. The cash dollar index is
USDX = 50.14348112 × EURUSD ^-0.576 × USDJPY ^0.136 × GBPUSD ^-0.119 × USDCAD ^0.091 × USDSEK ^0.042 × USDCHF ^0.036
Can something like this be created either on the platform or built in C# and compiled? Thanks!

Hello natgasguy,

You could do something like this by using AddDataSeries to add the data you wanted to compare. A BarsType or series could not be created like this so you would need to use a higher level type like an Indicator to plot the results. You can take a look at the public user app share for some examples, the Spread is one that uses multiple data sources: https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...load/spread-2/
