Indicator not being called

[GaryAlbers]

I have a strategy that calls AddChartIndicator in the DataLoaded state.
However, the indicator's OnBarUpdate method is not being called (it is not executing the Print statement there).
Can you tell me why?
See code provided in attached zip.

Thanks,
Gary

Hello GaryAlbers,

Thanks for your post.

You would need to access your indicator in OnBarUpdate() of the strategy if you want to see historical OnBarUpdates in the indicator. In the help guide for addChartIndicator(0 is this tip: If you are adding an indicator which is dependent on the correct State of the indicator, you will need to ensure that you are also calling the indicator from the strategy in OnBarUpdate(), otherwise your indicator will only process in State.RealTime for performance optimizations. The help guide shows an example using an SMA as an added indicator and then accessing the indicator in the strategies OnBarUpdate(), please see: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...tindicator.htm
