simple volume value draw on chart ?

[obwon1]

Hi how can I display volume value on chart

I put this below into a copy of a sample ma strategy, but no value appears at the buys on the chart ?
am I placing this in the wrong event handler?

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if (BarsInProgress != 0)
return;

if (CurrentBar < BarsRequiredToTrade)
return;

if (CrossAbove(smaFast, smaSlow, 1))
{
EnterLong();

Draw.Text(this, "VOLUME", Volume[0].ToString(), 0, Volume[0] , Brushes.Yellow);

}

Hello obwon1,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

Are you expecting this on every occurrence or just the most recent one? (use unique tag names for multiple objects)

To confirm this text is not appearing once in the Drawing Objects window?

ok tnx im not getting any output when use draw
yes only on event do I want it draw text

also im trying to add multiple data series so that I can reference them in my conditions

else if (State == State.Configure)
{

AddDataSeries("XYZ 02-22", Data.BarsPeriodType.Minute, 2, Data.MarketDataType.Last);
AddDataSeries("XYZ 02-22", Data.BarsPeriodType.Minute, 3, Data.MarketDataType.Last);
AddDataSeries("XYZ 02-22", Data.BarsPeriodType.Minute, 5, Data.MarketDataType.Last);

but only 1 appears when I add the strategy to a chart ?
how can I get all 3 data series

what id like to do is track the volma or chalkvol for each series

cvol = ChaikinVolatility(10, 10);

and then draw that value to the screen when triggered

Hello obwon1,

Is the Strategy enabled, showing the Enabled checkbox checked on the Strategies tab of the Control Center?

Add a print above the condition that prints smaFast[1] < smaSlow[1] & smaFast[0] > smaSlow[0].

Below is a link a link to a forum post that demonstrates using prints to understand behavior.

Be sure to save the output to a text file and include this with your next post.

With the added series complexity, are you printing Times[1][0] when CurrentBars[1] is greater than 1, and is this causing an error?
