EMA Charting

[shahabjet1]

Hi, I can't seem to be able to write a code for strategy to simply show EMA 200 indicator on my chart, can you please help, attached is my code and I keep getting error "The type or namespace name 'Color' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Drawing' (are you missing an assembly reference?)" and I do have System.Drawing up on my code. Can you provide a simpler code just to show EMA 200 on chart or help to fix my code please? See attached.

Hello shahabjet1,

Thanks for your post.

If you are wanting to plot the EMA(200) on a chart, the AddPlot() method should be added to the script which will add a plot to the chart. The EMA(200)[0] value could then be assigned to that plot so that the script plots the EMA(200) on the chart when you add the indicator to the chart.

I have attached a simple example script demonstrating how this could be accomplished.

Note that NinjaTrader 8 uses Brushes to define the color of an object. For example, Brushes.Red would be used to set a plot or drawing to the color red.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.
