Is there a way to have a calendar like the pic below inserted into a Indicator as a Parameter that can be accesed via Indicator Window?
-
Just create an input of the DateTime type -
Code:private DateTime inputdate;
And in the properties -
Code:[Description("Date")] [Category("Parameters")] public DateTime Inputdate { get { return inputdate; } set { inputdate = value; } }BertrandNinjaTrader Customer Service -
Thank You NinjaTrader_Bertrand !

Hello,
I'm jumping in the middle here, but I will try to help. To get the parameters to not default back to your default parameter settings you will need to assign their values in your OnBarUpdate() block and not in your variables block.
Hope that helps...DenNinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

You don't need to use "private" when already inside OnBarUpdate(). You still need to use GetBar() to get the actual bar number for the particular time/date to reference in your drawing objects.Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

They should not be in the OnBarUpdate(). They should be in Variables section of the code above Initialize() as private ints.
private int startHour = 6;
private int endHour = 11;Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment

lol
ok...now i'm confused
Ben had mentioned to move the int's under the OnBarUpdate()block but maybe I'm missing the whole point
I originally had the int's in the Variable block which worked but was looking for a way to adjust both Date and Time like the pic below

Leave them in Variables. If you don't want parameters, go to the Properties region of the code and delete those parameters from there. When you delete them from properties you cannot access the capital version of the variable name anymore. Change them to the lower case ones.Josh P.NinjaTrader Customer ServiceComment
