I want to create an indicator using VS.NET. I do not want to use "NinjaTrader.Custom" solution. I want to create it in a separate solution.
Can someone help with how to reference Ninjatrader Dlls?
Also, can someone share information about how to create custom DLL that can host an indicator?
I have already read article "https://nexusfi.com/ninjatrader/32855-ninjatrader-dll-s-creating-loading-how.html".
It doesn't help.

Giving this thread a bump, to see if any programmers can answer @milindpaward's question.

I would ask @Jasonnator for his insights.

I noticed a Gitlab solution project he shared included a Libs directory hosting NinjaTrader related DLLs.

Yes, I use Visual Studio almost exclusively. I have a free solution as well as how to videos which should help you get started. Check the links in my signatures.
