Possible to add formula on charts?

04-06-2025, 03:38 PM

Hello,

Is it possible to display formula and their corresponding computations right on the charts itself instead of me doing it manually in Excel spreadsheets?

E.g. Trading on a 1 minute chart, I am looking to get a sum of High + Low / 2 when a new candle forms after the completion of the previous 1 minute candle. (This is just a random example.)

Thank you.

Hello lightsun47,

Yes you can use an indicator to do that type of calculation. For example the SMA indicator uses a plot to display a result of some math. If you are new to NinjaScript I would suggest looking at the following pages.
