NT8 Clock & Countdown Indicator

[JAVIER LLORDEN]

Good Monday colleagues,
Please, I need to make a query that may be easy but after being dedicated a long time I can not solve.

I have in my workspace one indicator that shows me the current time and also tells me the countdown of the bar of my chart: Two things.
But my indicator has an offset of several seconds with respect to what should be correct. This lag means that the indicator is running ahead.

My question is if there is an official Ninjatrader 8 indicator to count down the bar of your chart.
My second question if there is not an official indicator, then can you tell me if it is possible to solve my problem.

I confirm that I have also made the test by opening a chart only and I have the same problem. That is, without using my workspace that I have several tabs of different temporalities.
And I also confirm that I have tested with another different indicator that only makes me a countdown and does not give me the current time, and also this second indicator has the problem of being several seconds ahead.

Thanks for your help and best regards.

Thank you for your inquiry.

By default, there is an indicator included called "BarTimer" that can be applied to the chart to show the remaining time before the bar closes.

Good Tuesday Kimberly,

I think I was able to fix the error in my indicator.
I followed your instructions and it seems to be working. I used the indicator itself that comes from Ninjatrader and not using the one I had from long ago.
Thanks for your good help.
Best regards.
