Need help determining where and how to declare the variables for this chop indicator code. I am having trouble figuring this out from the NT help guide. Code calculation below :
{
double ChopIndicator = ((100 * Log10 (sum(atr(1),14)/maxhi(14)- minlo(14)))/log10(14));
{
Does this go in the variable section, the onbarupdate section, both or neither ? Would all these be double types also ?
Confused ?
After they are defined can I call them with :
Plot0.Set(value);
Plot1.Set(value);
etc, etc,
Thanks,
Richard

Probably the easiest way for you to learn would be to examine the code of the NinjaTrader SMA indicator. You will see a region called variables which is where most variables would be declared. To plot your indicator you will need to add a "Plot". Looking at the SMA you will see where calculations are made with the output to "Value" using .Set.
So understand that creating a plot associates automatically with Value.
You might look a few simple NinjaTrader indicators to get a better idea. Be careful not to get into the most complicated or you will risk certain insanity.
Good luck
