A bit of housekeeping required here. You will need to post this to the correct thread to get more exposure, plus you need to be more descriptive. As a coder I have no idea what you are attempting to do here.

Hi @Syedfahim12346,

You made the same post on October 11 in the ThinkOrSwim section, and this is in NinjaTrader, so we have duplicate posts relating to different platforms.

As @JonnyBoy mentioned, a more appropriate location, assuming you mean this for NT, is in the NT free indicator thread. There is a much better chance of it being picked up by a programmer there, plus it helps keep the forum better organized.

Please repost your question in that thread, and include a clearer explanation of what you want as a final result. As a programmer, I also do not understand your meaning, including your latest statement that "I want to make a indicator where the candle body is <= 50% of the candle range" -- for example, what do you want plotted on the chart? Remember that it may be clear to you what you are after, but someone coming into this cold may not understand what you want to see. (This is not a criticism, just friendly advice from someone who has spent a lot of time trying to figure out what users wanted me to program for them. .) Simple, plain English descriptions of the intended result, with a chart image if possible, will communicate your meaning best.

If you do want this indicator for both NinjaTrader and TOS, then it is fine to keep the TOS thread open. Please let me know in the original ThinkOrSwim thread whether you do want the indicator for both platforms. Otherwise, I will need to close the TOS thread as a duplicate, I assume just a simple mistake.

If you do mean to ask for this for NinjaTrader, then please use this thread:



I am closing this thread to prevent a duplicate topic.

Thanks.

Bob.
