Help needed: script for Market Analyzer

[by_maxxx]

Hello everybody!

I'm pretty new to Ninja Script programming and was trying to make it through Indicators Wizard, but failed to compile the script...

Could anyone please help me with the following question:

I want to create a very simple indicator, that I could put in Market Analizer to see the following for the list of stocks:

1) If Current Daily Bar Open > Previous Daily Bar High = Market Analyzer will Indicate GAP UP (Green)
2) If Current Daily Bar Open < Previous Daily Bar Low = Market Analyzer will Indicate GAP DOWN (Red)

Thanks a lot in advance

Hello by_maxxx,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

For scanning in the market analyzer, you can work off plot values. A common approach is setting your plot as 1 when the condition is true and 0 otherwise. You can then check when the column is 1 and color based on this value.

Here's how the high portion of your condition might be written:

if (CurrentDayOHL().Open[0] > PriorDayOHLC().PriorHigh[0])
Plot0.Set(1);

else
Plot0.Set(0);
