Custom indicator not displaying on lower timeframes

[benjamin$]

Hello!

I recently created a custom indicator that plots a horizontal line at the open price for the current bar on the following timeframes:

15 Minute
2 Hour
U.S. Open
Daily
Weekly

The indicator works as expected if I apply it to the Daily timeframe but it won't work on the 15 minute or 1 minute time frames. Is there a specific way to get this indicator to work on a low timeframe such as 1 minute?

I thought "IsAutoScale" being set to true would fix this but it didn't.

Thank you,
Ben

Hello benjamin$,

Thanks for your post.

To clarify, are you assigning the Open[0] price to the plot in the script and applying it to a chart?

Do you see any error messages appear in the Log tab of the Control Center when applying the indicator to a 15-minute or 1-minute timeframe? If so, what do the error messages report?

Please see the attached example script which demonstrates assigning the Open[0] to a plot. The example script could then be added to any timeframe interval.

See this help guide page for more information about using AddPlot() and assigning values to the plot: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...t8/addplot.htm

Let us know if we may assist further.

Thank you for your response. I discovered the issue.

I was using:

if (CurrentBars[0] <= BarsRequiredToPlot || CurrentBars[1] <= BarsRequiredToPlot || CurrentBars[2] <= BarsRequiredToPlot || CurrentBars[3] <= BarsRequiredToPlot || CurrentBars[4] <= BarsRequiredToPlot || CurrentBars[5] <= BarsRequiredToPlot)

and when I changed it to:

if (CurrentBars[0] < 1 || CurrentBars[1] < 1 || CurrentBars[2] < 1 || CurrentBars[3] < 1 || CurrentBars[4] < 1 || CurrentBars[5] < 1)


the appropriate lines showed up on all charts.
