Indices Dashboard Heat Map

[luisbay17]

Looking for an indicator that can show me a dashboard heat map similar to the Forex Currency Dashboard or any help to develop the indicator on NT7. Just interested in some indices and few currencies, not all of them. Please, see attachment. Any help will be appreciate it. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello luisbay17,

Thanks for opening the thread.

I am not aware of a specific indicator that accomplishes this task already, and I won't be able to provide much direction for the drawing of the dashboard since it would most likely require overriding the OnPlot() method for custom drawing. We do not have any available documentation on using OnPlot() so we cannot provide any support or direction for its usage in 3rd party scripts.

There is a SampleCustomPlot example in NinjaTrader 7 that can provide some direction, however. As an alternative, you could use Draw.Text() with different pixel offsets to create a grid on your chart panel.

The rest of the indicator would involve using additional data series. Our Multi-Series NinjaScript documentation has a complete guide to creating NinjaScripts with multiple data series.

I will include publicly available information from our help guide on the items discussed and some tutorials that cover the basics for NinjaScript.

Draw.Text() - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...7/drawtext.htm

If you are looking for or would like to explore services to have the code written for you, I can have a member of our Business Development team reach out with more information on NinjaScript Consulting services in our EcoSystem.

I'll leave the thread open ended for anyone else who would like to share their input.

We are happy to assist you further.

Thanks Jim. Will look into those tutorials. If you don't mind, can you please have a member of the Business Dev. team contact me to see if an indicator like this is possible. Thanks again.
