Hi

I believe I asked this question once before but I can't find the answer..Sorry about that.

In NT 7, is there a way to add Renko candle bricks onto a Range bar chart?
I would like the indicators to continue calculating and plotting on the range data but superimpose a Renko 4 brick on top to see the price action, I could make the Range bars transparent, otherwise, a separate panel for the Renko would be acceptable.

Thank you in advance for all your help.

You have several options:

(1) Add a second DataSeries on a new panel (right click on your chart, select DataSeries). You can the add indicators and decide from which of the two DataSeries they are calculated (see InputSeries), then display them on one of the two existing panels or a new panel at your choice.

The two DataSeries will cause an uneven spacing of the bars, as all bars will be aligned to time.

(2) Proceed as under (1), but display the second DataSeries on the existing price panel and set the bars to transparent.

(3) Code multi-timeframe indicators. This allows you to calculate indicators from a different BarSeries than the one which is displayed on the chart. The advantage of MTF indicators is that the bars of the visible series will be evenly spread.

Hello Fat Tails:

Thanks a million for your help.
It is amazing how well things go with a little push from a knowledgeable hand.
I thought I would muddle through it but it went amazingly smooth and I learned quite a bit.

Thank again, I feel so smart now... ...Well maybe not that much.
