As we know, the values of RSI, SMA (and almost every other TA indicator) are time-sensitive and differ depending on which interval time series you use (ie: 5m, 10m, 30m, hourly or daily).
Does this mean that if I use a multi-timeframe automated trading strategy which relies on 5m, 10m, 30m, hourly and daily indicators, I would have to provide 5 different data files? (And are they called IData files?)
Also, how would I get these data files to update themselves with live market data so that Ninjatrader calculates the most updated TA values in real-time (thus discarding the last historical data reading and recalculating based on the newest added figure)?
Also, this might seem like a stupid question to ask, but I'm really, really new to NT, so please bear with me! Prior to finding out about NT, I was considering writing my own TA equations, but it seems that NT provides a huge TA indicator class library. Is this class library available to an external 3rd party C#.NET program?
And I've read somewhere that since NT has it's own strategy creation platform, I might not need to hard-code my trading strategy in an external 3rd party program written in C#.NET. Is this correct?
Some kind guidance would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!
