How to run Market Analyzer on every tick?

[Revazi123]

Hi there,

I have coded indicator which one works on Tick chart and its gives correct signals. Now I am trying to use it in Market Analyzer. I will attach screenshot where I tried explain everything and show it too.

And also 1 thing what I want to learn is How can I protect my code. I mean in MetaTrader 4/5 there is source file mq4/mq5 and executable ex4/ex5 same way as in cTrader is cs files and executable file. So when I compile in NinjaScript in folder there is only source code cs file.

Thanks in advanced for your help.

Hello Revazi123,

Thank you for your post.

Any indicator that runs OnEachTick will run in the Market Analyzer the same way. Please see the attached example script that demonstrates an indicator that prints OnBarUpdate to the Market Analyzer for every tick. Please note that you need to update a plot to accomplish this.

To protect your source code, you could export your indicators/strategies as a compiled assembly (DLL). A compiled assembly (DLL) of NinjaScript "hides" your source code. This can be further protected by SecureTeam's Agile.NET to prevent theft of your intellectual property.

To export your NinjaScripts as a compiled assembly, navigate to the Export menu (Tools > Export > NinjaScript Add-On..). Add your indicator/strategy to the export menu by using the 'add' button. Then, check the 'Export as compiled assembly' box in the upper right-hand corner followed by the 'Export' button.

Please see the help guide link for more information about exporting a NinjaScript - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...scriptAsAssemb ly

Hello Brandon,

1) The problem is that I am not using OnBarUpdate I am using OnMarketData because I have complicated code where I use times in seconds and if I move my whole algorithm from OnMarketData to OnBarUpdate it may not work as it should.
2) What about export I have done it and thanks.

P.S. I am using OnMarketData to get marketDataUpdate.MarketDataType, MarketDataType.Last, marketDataUpdate.Volume, marketDataUpdate.Price

Hello Revazi123,

Thank you for that information.

You would need to use TriggerCustomEvent to update a plot within OnMarketData.

Please see the "Using TiggerCustomEvent to update a previously set custom Series<T> value" example in the TriggerCustomEvent help guide page. Instead of using OnRender like in the example, we would use OnMarketData. Instead of updating a Series<T> we would update Values[0][0].

Also, please see the attached example script which demonstrates how this could be accomplished. In the example script, we set our plot to use the current close (Values[0][0] = Close[0];. We create a variable to store the current price value. Then, in OnMarketData we check if the variable is not marketDataUpdate.Price and set our bool to true. The script then checks if the bool is true followed by assigning marketDataUpdate.Price to our plot.

And, here is a help guide link about Values - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nt8/values.htm

Please let us know if you have any further questions.
