ADD() indicator with all parameters

[ttodua]

When we use :

ADD( indicator_name() )

from Strategies, indicators added on chart, has only configurable "plot color" and like that.
When indicator is added with typical way (from Indicators>New) then Indicator shows all available inputs (properties) for user to configure.

How to achieve same, that when Indicator is added from strategy, had all those inputs available when we open indicators window?

( i have also opened another question - https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...819#post540819 which addresses other approach)

Hello TazoTodua,

Thank you for your note.

So I may best answer your question, would you please provide more information on what property specificly you'd like to configure from the strategy for a specific indicator?

I will answer your other question on that thread when I have an answer.

I look forward to your reply.

Quite simple.

I have XYZ INDICATOR, which has 40 custom properties.

I want it to include in Strategy (I mean, in strategy, i use ADD( XYZ() ) ). The indicator is added on chart, but when I open the CTRL+I (indicators window), the properties are not visible, only "Plot" category is visible there).

So, I want there were all properties available, as If I've added that indicator with default way.

I dont want to manually copy paste those 40 properties in every strategy I make.. Instead, I want to configure them from Indicators window, like I do for a typical indicators.

I am sure there is everything clear for you to understand now.

btw, I have looked in inner logic (in NinjaTrader/GUI/Chart/ChartIndicators) class, and I see :

if(indicatorBase.Strategy == null)
{
..
indicatorBase2.showProperties = (indicatorBase.Strategy == null);
...
}

so, i assume that is the reason that indis added from strategy doesnt show the properties.
so, i want a help from you, as i cant change `showProperties` to true from my strategy

Hello TazoTodua,

Within each strategy you would need to add the user inputs which you'd pass to the indicator within the script. There is no supported means of not having to add these to each script.

If you are able to find an unsupported means of accomplishing this I'm sure the community would be interested in seeing your approach.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

and you will surely agree with me that it's quite inconvenient.

My indicator has 40 input fields. I have to add all those inputs each and again in every my strategy? very very inconvenient.

please, open a support ticket (for NT8) to be this feature available.. thanks.
