I am wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to get a tick based Renko chart in Ninjatrader. I use them in Multicharts but I wanted to back test something and I don't know the C# required in Multicharts to do it. A tick based Renko chart will print all of the Renko bars that exist at the close of the period, in this case a 5000 tick bar.

@uspilotzzz, Pretty sure Flex Renko in Multicharts is called UniRenko in Ninjatrader and is a custom bar type. You can review it here:
