Expose Public Class List

[TAJTrades]

Yes I know this is Advanced C# coding and Yes I know that NT is not in the business of teaching C# and yes I know that this is not supported by NT. But I am hoping that someone with advanced C# knowledge will toss me a bone.

I am trying to Expose the List created in the code to other Indicators and Strategies. The code seems to work fine within the indicator and am in fact using it. After spending a few weeks I still have not figured out how to expose it. I am guessing that I need something in the Properties Region and have tried many ideas but no success.

        public int SampleInt;

        {
            this.SampleInt = SampleInt;
            this.SampleDouble = SampleDouble;
            this.SampleString = SampleString;
            this.SampleBool = SampleBool;
        }
    }

                samplelistclass.Add(new htcSampleExposePublicList_SampleListClass(0, SMA(10)[0], "SMA is Rising", true ));
                
        }

TAJTrades - would the ideas discussed here help you perhaps going forward?

Still have not figure this out so maybe we can try a different approach.

On the "Volume Profile" indicator that comes with NT7 how can I expose the the SortedDictionary "volumeInfo" so that I can create some code that will add the VolumeInfoItem(up, down, neutral) to determine the price with the highest traded volume. That would be the widest bar on the histogram.

I looked in the Strategy Builder and did not see an option for this. I am NOT looking for help manipulating the SortedDictionary only how to expose it within the NT 7 environment.

Thanks again.

TAJTrades, unfortunately since this is more general C# this is outside of what we can support here however a hint to get you started fruther : the dictionary and VolumeInfoItem class are either defined as private or internal, you could copy over to a standalone test indicator and then expose them via the public modifier. It should at least show up then to be called from another indicator in Intellisense.
