After study of building a strategy in the wizzard I have 3 questions to solve in order to devellop my strategy with the wizzard:

1: I will use the Fast Stochastics indicator and need to condition in the Condition Buider that %K > %D for a entry long. Because these variables are part of the same indicator I have no idea how to do this.

2: Another condition I don't now to bring with the Condition Builder is that: 08:30 < current time < 21:45.

3: Is 10 the maximum amount of User Defined Inputs for the Strategy Wizzard?

I am looking forward for help on these issues.

1. When selecting an indicator, it's plots are available for selection in the bottom portion of the condition builder.

2. See the following link - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/HelpGuideV6/ConditionBuilder-TimeComparisons.html

3. Yes through the wizard. Unlimited manually programming it.

Ray, Thanks for the answers on my questions.
Remains still the problem with the first question. I will try to explain my problem:
In the Condtion Builder I want to make the equation %K > %D for the Fast Stochastics. The plot of the indicator lines will not help me out. Thereafter I want also to make the equation that %K < 25.
Therefore I need to work with the variable %K and %D itsself.
Can this be done and how?

I am sorry. I do not understand what you are after.

Do you want to check the values of the input parameters of the stochastic indicators and NOT the indicator's actual plot values?

The problem is I want to equate the actual plot values %K and %D of the Fast Stochastics indicator in the Condition Builder. These represent the 2 lines in the indicator.
I have no problem with the input parameters; they can be defined with User Defined Input variables.

That's what I thought you meant.

Here is an image of unpublished Help Documentation that explains how to do what you want.

Ray, Your information about how to make the condition with the current values of the indicator in the Condition Builder was of great help!
Thanks also about the information about the webbinar. But does it not start at 9 PM EDT, which is in the middle of the night in the Netherlands where I am living?

Great. Yes, that would be difficult to make from Holland. We will have more of these sessions coming up and possibly recorded.
