Hi NT developers,
Having major esig problems today so started looking into charts, etc in Ninja. Have a few of questions:
1. Is there a tutorial for the lingo? Don't want to learn yet another scripting language unless absolutely necesary but would like to know how to edit existing scripts.
2. Can indicators access multiplte time frames? Like putting a 30m moving average on a 5m chart?
3. I can't get TICK-NYSE to chart correctly: it won't print the negative values, only the positive ones.

OK, thats all for now.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Hi,

1) What is a lingo? Check out the help docs for a starter on NinjaScript.
2) No
3) This is a bug in NT5, since negative prices are not handled correctly. Will be fixed with NT6.

-Thanks. Lingo is slang for language, ie another programming language. I'll check out the help docs.
-Bummer about mutliple time frames. Is a nice feature.
- OK. I'll wait for the new release.

If you want to put an indicator from another timeframe on a chart, all you need to do is to multiply or divide the values.

For instance, if you have a9 period moving average on a9 minute chart, and youwant to display it on a3 minute chart, 3 goes into9, 3 times, somultiplythe 9 period moving average by 3 and placethe27 period moving average on the3 minute.

The27 periodMA on the 3M chart will bevery close to the9 period MA on the 9M chart.
