    Indicator Display Order/Overlay

    How can I get an indicator to show up visually over top of another indicator?
    I have a 3rd party indicator that displays a orderflow type price bar & I have my own indicator that displays a dot at a certain price value for each bar.
    Sometimes if I load my indicator last onto the chart my indicator dots will be visible, sometimes their not.
    Any ideas how I can get my indicator dots to show up all the time?

    Hello,

    Thank you for the post.

    In this situation, you can manually modify the ZOrder on the chart by selecting one of the indicators Plots or drawing objects and then hold Shift and Scroll the mouse wheel. You should see text next to the mouse cursor indicating the ZOrder level. With NT7 there is not a supported way to control the ZOrder accurately on load, so items can display in different order.

    Depending on the indicator, this may or may not produce a change. Some complex items may not use Plots or Drawing objects and instead render directly to the chart, these items cannot have a ZOrder change.

    This is an item that was addressed with NT8 and ZOrder can now be controlled using NinjaScript going forward.



    I look forward to being of further assistance.
