StrategyPlot() color change

[paulca]

I'm trying to change a StrategyPlot color dynamically in OnBarUpdate(), eg:

OnBarUpdate()
{
if (somecondition)
StrategyPlot(0).Plots[0].Pen.Color = Color.Red;
else
StragegyPlot(0).Plots[0].Pen.Color = Color.Green;
}

This doesn't work. Someone else recently asked this question and he was given a link to sample code to change plot colors in an indicator, not a strategy.

Thxs,

Hello,

First off are you using NinjaTrader 7 or NinjaTrader 6.5 as you need to use a different method depending on what version you are on.

I look forward to assisting you further.

Sorry Brett - 7.0.0.23. I thought that StrategyPlot() was only available in 7.0.

Hello,

In 7 you will want to use the following sample to do this:

Please see post number 1.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

That sample shows how to change a plot color in an indicator. In a strategy "PlotColors" does not exist.

Hello,

Ah understood.

SMA(20).PlotColors[0][0] = Color.Black;

Tested this on my side and this compiles for me.
