My indicator uses multiple timeframe data series (AddDataSeries inState.Configure). I would like to display the bars of one of them (minutes). Is there a way to show them, or add bars chart, which may be a different period type from the chart main, from the indicator?

Hello Shai Samuel,
From code, there is currently no way to add another visual bar series to the chart in addition to the primary. I will put in a feature request for an overload for this.
The current options would include manually adding the series to that chart, this would be the only correct way to display other frequencies of data in addition to the primary series. Using the manually added series creates a new panel and correct scales for that data which is not completely locked to the primary.
You can use Plots to display prices from the added series or use OnRender to draw bars over the primary bars. Using either of these methods will allow you to display the data in custom ways but will only be a snapshot of the data at that time of the Primary Bars close. Because the primary series may not be a 1 minute series, the bars may not be identical which would cause gaps of data being omitted from the display, unlike a bar series that shows only increments of that timeframe.
I look forward to being of further assistance.JesseNinjaTrader Customer Service
