Expose indicator plot on VitVWAP for strategy

January 20th, 2016, 06:26 PM

I am creating a strategy that uses the value of the plot from Vitalij's VWAP ( here or see attached). I am having trouble figuring out how to expose (if not exposed already) the plot. Can someone take a look at this and tell me if i need to either change the code in the Indicator itself or what parameter I need to use in my strategy?

Thanks!

There you go.

It was mention in NinjaTrader forum.

Import the .CS files into NinjaTrader.

To do this copy the .CS files and then paste them into the following directory: My Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Strategy
If they are Indicators it will need to be the following directory: My Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Indicator

Once complete, go to Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Indicator > select any indicator > OK > once the NinjaScript Editor window opens press F5 on your keyboard to compile your NinjaScript files.

I hope it helps

I didn't explain my problem properly, sorry. I have the Indicator working on my chart. I am creating a strategy that lets me know when price hits the vwap value from that indicator, so I need the plot value from that indicator as a reference in my strategy. My problem is referencing the plot from the indicator in my strategy. For instance, I get an error with CrossAbove(Close, VitVWAP, 1) because it says I am calling a method.

@happyrenko,

Try:

if (CrossAbove(Close, VitVWAP(), 1))

then....do something

and

if(CrossBelow(Close,VitVWAP(),1))

then...do something
