Hi, is there a way to make additional (ICONS/SYMBOLS) that show up on our charts as indicators other than what is offered inside of NinjaTrader (Generic Icons/Symbols - Diamond, Dot, Arrow, Triangle & Square). I want to have it where I have the option to also use icons/symbols like Plus/Cross, Bar, Hash, Horizontal Line, Line, Square, Triangle Down, Up, Left, Right etc. How can I get these added to my charts and or indicators? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Also willing to pay for this to be done. Thank you so much!!!

@DavidHP thank you. I was able to find what you have suggested about a wk ago. I really didn't completely understand if it is a drawing tool where I will have to manually put the icons on the chart myself or if they will appear bigger every time the indicator that I am using has that icon it will place a larger one on the chart. I am looking more for someone to make additional icons for my indicator or to have the ability to have the larger icons to appear on my chart when the conditions that are built into it are met. I think I am going to have to find a developer. By chance are you a developer? Or have you connected with one here in our community that may be able to help me with this?

@trendisyourfriend. Thank you for that information. I am looking more for someone to make additional icons for my indicator or to have the ability to have the larger icons to appear on my chart when the conditions that are built into it are met. I think I am going to have to find a developer. By chance are you a developer? Or have you connected with one here in our community that may be able to help me with this? I have the indicator, I need it to make the ICONS BIGGER (not just by widening the candles) and/or to have additional icons. I wouldn't be opposed to having what you've suggested if I knew how to do that or if I could pay someone to do that. Or to utilize what DavidHP suggested from the NinjaTrader Ecosystem. https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share-download/chartmarkersplus/
