reg navigating to the tab directly

Dear.

i started trading/observing multiple instruments in nt8,is there any way sir i can directly navigate to the instrument tab using the instrument name directly,as scrolling though the horizontal bar becomes difficult for bulk instrument,i use the ncs candlestick scanner and i want to navigate to the instrument directly when signal is generated ,Can you please let me know of a shortcut method to navigate to that tab.
is there any indicator available in market to accomplish this

Hello Sandeep,

Thank you for your note.

You could select your chart and use Ctrl + Tab on your keyboard to cycle between tabs in the chart. However, there is not a way to directly change to a specific tab.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for any other NinjaTrader inquiries you may have.

I'm not sure if there is a way to do exactly what you're looking for.

But if you're scanning a large number of instruments for certain conditions, I would recommend using the Market Analyzer in NT8. You can include all the instruments you are monitoring in MA and create columns with your desired indicators and even color code them or create alerts for when your conditions are met.

Then you can set up a single chart window and instrument link it to the MA window. Any time one of your conditions is met and an alert goes off or a color change happens in the MA window, you can click that instrument in the MA window and it will load the chart for that instrument in the chart window.

I don't know how many instruments you're monitoring, but I think this is more efficient than having multiple tabs open with each showing a different chart.

My 2 cents.

Hope this helps.
