Does anyone know if there's a way to plot the yield curve on a ninja chart? for example plot the line of the 10 year treasury ZN minus the 2 year ZT. I'm not sure if Ninja has the ability to plot a line that represents the difference of two symbols or not? or perhaps there already is a symbol for the yield curve, i don't know?

Yes this is possible.

But you are mixing two things

1:

Substraction of 10yr - 2yr :



2:

Substraction of ZN - ZT : (futures)






Both are possible as you can see

thanks, what indicator do you use for your first example? is it a custom indicator or something standard with NT7?

Depending on your broker or data vendor, you might be better off just asking for the spread symbol, e.g. just get the NOB price directly for a representation of that specific spread in the curve.
