How to build a Market Analyzer Condition

[BobyGill]

Hello
How can I build a column condition in Market Analyzer as below:

When current (day/week/month) candle (low/high) above/below 50 EMA?


Thank You

Hello BobyGill,

Thanks for your post.

We would recommend creating this as an indicator because you can add almost any indicator to the market analyzer by the market analyzer's Indicator column. In addition, you can use the indicator in a strategy (ninjascript or strategy builder strategy).

When you create the indicator, you can have the indicator provide a transparent plot and the plot can be set to a value of +1 when above the EMA and -1 when below the EMA. When added to the market analyzer indicator column, you would just set the cell conditions based on +1 or -1, regardless of instrument.

Here is the example educational indicator I created.

Hi Paul, Thank you, very helpful. Could we use for a different period of an EMA, simply change a period on the parameters?

Hello Galiula,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader forums.

Yes, in the example I included a user input for the period. The indicator name and its plotname would both reflect 50 period EMA but in name only.

Hello BobyGill,

Thanks for your reply.

You could replace the conditions in the indicator with Crossabove() or Crossbelow().
