MultiData Series Range Bars

[ginx10k]

Hey Guys I uploaded a Simple Indicator I'm working on. Its purpose is to Plot a line on a 10 Tick (EUR/USD TenthOfAPiP) Chart, using the High or Low of 50 Tick Chart.

It does plot a Line on the smaller Chart. But It's a One Bar Line.

How do I make it Plot a Line From Beginning ("startX") to("endX") using the 50 tick Chart instead of 10 tick chart. I already have the startY endY working perfectly.

Example of What I want is on the Right

Hello ginx10k,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Rather than specifying an integer for your startX and endX values, you can use DateTime and utilize this DrawLine overload instead:

DrawLine(string tag, bool autoScale, DateTime startTime, double startY, DateTime endTime, double endY, Color color, DashStyle dashStyle, int width);

With this overload, you can obtain the times from your secondary Bars object and use this to determine the length of the line drawn.

You'll be able to pull a DateTime using the Times collection: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...nt7/?times.htm

I thought of that method before. But the Range Bar don't have a specific End Time nor Start Time. So I can't have a DateTime startTime,/endTime. Unless there is a specific way to Take the Closing of Previous Bar's Time Somehow?

Any Thoughts?? Anyone??

Hello ginx10k,

Utilizing the Times collection will return a DateTime object denoting the close of the bars.

For instance, Times[1][0] will return the bar close time of the current bar of the secondary Bars object.

For more information about using Times, please take a look at the NinjaTrader help guide at this link: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...nt7/?times.htm

Any IDEA why This is NOT Working.

I've uploaded a simple Script, and it does NOt draw rectangle. I dont' know why.

I used one single condition for Multi Data Series Range Bar. and I'm testing on 6E 3 tick Range chart. using Default Settings

Hello ginx10k,

You need to be checking CurrentBar < 5 on both Bars objects.

Example:

if (CurrentBars[0] < 5 || CurrentBars[1] < 5) // checks that we have at least 5 or more bars in BOTH Bars objects before continuing
     return;

Please, let us know if we may be of further assistance.
