    Hello brentapp,

    Welcome to the NinjaTrader forum.

    It is not possible to plot from chart to chart, but you can add another data series to the chart that has the Bollinger Bands, then, in the settings of the Bolinger Bands, set the "Panel" to that of the newly added data series.

    Please let me know if I can assist further.

      ok, thanks, didnt think about that.
      that works but it plots the value a little off.
      can i take a value from the market analyzer for the middle band and plot it in a chart?
      thanks

        Hello brentapp,

        Thank you for the reply.

        You could not do that with the Market Analyzer. All of the objects can be thought of as their own process. If you want the other Renko chart as a stand-alone chart, add a "hidden data series" to the chart, that will allow you to apply an indicator that reads data from the hidden series.

        See this publicly available video on adding a hidden data series:

        Once you have done that, apply a Bollinger Band indicator to the chart. For the "Input Series", select the hidden data series.

        Please let me know if you have any questions.

          Chris, thank you very much, i thought of that before, but i couldnt figure out how to hide the second data series in the chart. just one other question please. how do i remove or hide the labels at the top of the chart that show the chart series and the indicators on the chart? i attached a picture of my chart so u could see that i have many and need to hide them.
          again thanks,
          Brent

            Hello brentapp,

            Thank you for the reply.

            Every Indicator and Data Series has a "Label" field in their settings. Please remove the text in there to clear the label on the chart.

            Please let me know if I can assist further.
