Hiding Strategy Specific Indicators From Use Outside the Strategy

[RandomTask]

I'm implementing a strategy that uses numerous custom indicators that I have purpose built just for strategies. These don't display on a chart but just return values based on their individual uses. It provides a convenient way to keep my indicator codes separate from the strategy.

So my question is: Is there a way to make these indicators inaccessible? That is, when I load a chart and go to add indicators, I don't want to see my strategy specific indicators in the list. I wan't them available to the strategy only.

Thanks

Hello RandomTask,

Thank you for your post.

The only current solution I'm aware of would be to use a namespace/folder for your custom indicators. They should then show up in a single folder in the list and not clutter up the rest of your indicator list. There would not be a way to hide them from the list otherwise at the current time.

However, I have added a vote for you to a current feature request for an an IsCodeOnly property for indicators which would designate the script to be hidden from the GUI but available to other NinjaScript files that can call indicators. This request is being tracked under the number SFT-3027.

As with all feature requests, interest is tracked before implementation is considered, so we cannot offer an ETA or promise of fulfillment. If implemented, it will be noted in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Thank you. The isCodeOnly would be a perfect solution.
