Hello CambodianT,

Thank you for your note.

Are you trying to build a custom indicator? Or, are you inquiring about a free indicator that you could use?

Please clarify, are you wanting an indicator that plots the midpoint between the daily high and low? If so, this could be accomplished without a custom indicator.

You could use the SMA indicator applied to a daily chart and set the 'Input series' property to the Median of the data series. To do this, open a Daily chart for the instrument you want, right-click on the chart and select 'Indicators', on the left side select the SMA indicator, in the SMA indicator's Properties section locate 'Input series', click the 'Input series' field, on the left side select the Price type drop-down menu, select Median, click OK, and click OK again. See the attached image demonstrating this.

Let us know if we may assist further.

If you would like to have the indicator calculate from a Daily series and plot on a 5-minute series, you could add a hidden Daily data series to your chart. See the publicly available video linked below demonstrating how to add a hidden data series for an indicator to calculate from.

Hello CambodianT,

Thank you for your note

I have moved this thread to the NinjaTrader 7 Indicator Development section since your inquiry is regarding NinjaTrader 7.

I am not aware of a free NinjaTrader 7 indicator that plots the midpoint between the high and low.

That said, this post will be open for any forum members that would like to contribute to your request.

Let us know if we may assist further.

Hey Brandon - Is there a custom code I could add to the Prior Day OHLC indicator so that it also plots 50% of the previous day as well???

Thanks!

Hello jtf2021,

Thanks for your note.

Yes, you could save a copy of the Prior Day OHLC indicator and modify it with custom logic to plot 50% of the previous day.

To save a copy of the indicator to modify, open the Prior Day OHLC indicator script by navigating to Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Indicator, select the Prior Day OHLC indicator, and click OK. Then, right-click in the script and select 'Save as', name the copy of the script, and click OK.

Once a copy of the script has been made, you could modify it to plot 50% of the previous day. Add() would be used to add an additional plot to the script. You would then calculate your logic and assign that value to the plot.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.

thank you nkhoi for the help,
also jtf2021 I a. Using a current day median off ninjatrader ecosystem free indicators It's perfect you can plot current 50% of the day or Also plot historical 50% of today
