    Moving and Undocking panels

    I'm wondering if it's possible for me to have an indicator where there is a seperate window/panel that is displaying the info. What I want is to do a roll-up signal indicator with just 4 'buttons' inside 'BUY' 'SELL' 'HOLD'. 4 buttons that contain one of those 3 options based on what my MA, my Stoch, and my MACD indicators are showing in the line graphs below.

    a) is it possible to have kind of text rectangle / 'button' (its non-interactive so really it is a rectangle

    b) is it possible to undock this type of panel so that it could sit in the top left corner 'on top' of my chart?

    c) any examples of people doing this with ninjatrader that you could point me to (either ninjascript, or even just images to show that it's possible)?

    Unfortunately undocking panels is not supported. You can try seeing how this indicator does stuff too. It might be suitable for what you are looking for: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/v...ead.php?t=3670

      command buttons

      Round-about simple solution: I did this on another platform, but in principle it will work here.
      a) Have a vb/java script(standard on windows)/VB/VBA (excel) that has a simple msgbox for buy, sell - this writes a command to a work file then sits in a wait for next command. The NT script looks for the command file in the onbarupdate event and takes the action requested.
      b) place the indicators in a separate chart and just resize it the way you want
      c) most everything is possible if you can do a little programming

      ps: A COM object from NT to Excel is presented in another thread by Gumphrie. That is beyond my abilities, but this simple approach works.
