indicator plot

[koganam]

thanks Koganam for advice. i did try this but then when i created another indicator and refered back to the dataseries i got msg when i tried to compile

"is inaccessible due to its protection level"

You must have its access level as public if you want to access it from outside. Let us see your sample code.

how can u make a dataset within an indicator accessible to other indicators without plotting them.

below is what i currently have.
i can make StDevi accessible to other indicators by plotting them in the origin indicator. i would like to make it accessible but not have to plot Stdev in the original indicator. (i am plotting other datasets in the origin indicator which use StDevi set as part of the calculations)

protected override void Initialize()
Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Red), PlotStyle.Line, "StdDevi"))

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
StdDevi .Set(StdDev(trueRange, LookBack)[0]);

#region Properties
public DataSeries StdDevi
{
get { return Values[0]; }
}

You set it up as a DataSeries, not as a Plot.

shouldnt it be technically still be doable in a single indicator? ofc you would still have to apply the indicator 2 times to the chart. one time for each panel. so its basicly the same has having too diffrent indicators. but at least you could contain all the code in that one indicator file if you so wish to.

You can certainly do the latter. Pretty much that is what the first response said that you should do.

Hello fiddy,


This can't be done from a single indicator. You would have to create two seperate indicators to accomplish plotting two values, where one is in the Price Panel and one is in the Indicator Panel.


Here is the DrawOnPricePanel Help Guide to assist you further.

how do u get one set of values in an indicator to plot on the chart panel 1 and another set of values to plot as oscillator on panel 2
