Adding more than 4 plots to a chart

[oldhiker]

I am new to NT. Using the Wizard will allow only 4 plots. I want to plot up to 12 EMA(close), like Guppy Multilple Moving Average, and then to generate signals/alerts based on several conditions. (I can do it in AmiBroker)
The Add(new Plot.............................. ) is OK, but when I add the next plot No, ie
Plot4.Set(EMA(Close, 15)[0];
and then try to compile the code, the error message is
The name "Plot4" does not exist in the current context.

How can I add more than 4 EMA plots and other types of plots
Thank you for any suggestions,

Bill,

Please check the "Properties" section of the code and make sure there is reference to the additional plots you are adding from there. You will need to expand the minimized “Properties” section by clicking on the + sign on the left.

You should see an example of how the original plots are formatted from the Wizard which can be duplicated to add additional plots.

Your reply was super fast. I thought that area was "off limits", so I didn't go there. I will try this tomorrow. It is now 11:30 pm local time and well past my bedtime.
Thank you for making my day.

Thanks for the update.


There is a section below that is labeled "NinjaScript Generated Code" which cannot be change.

However, the Properties where your plots are configured can be.

What you add should look something like:

  [Browsable(false)]    // this line prevents the data series from being displayed in the indicator properties dialog, do not remove
        [XmlIgnore()]        // this line ensures that the indicator can be saved/recovered as part of a chart template, do not remove
        public DataSeries Plot4
        {
            get { return Values[4]; }
        }

Thanks again, as your suggestions have helped once again. This morning, I have tried what you have suggested, and now I have the extra plot. Got to do some house work for the better half now, but then I can get back to learning more about NT.
It is an exciting journey
Like most actions, it is easy when you know how.
