When creating a indicator, is it possible to get data from symbols other than the one the indicator is placed upon?
Also my apologies if this has already been discussed, but I cannot seem to find much on this.

Yes, this can be done with the DataLoader. An example for that can be found here.When creating a indicator, is it possible to get data from symbols other than the one the indicator is placed upon?

That is also possible to reference data from a subchart (ex. current close from second data series):
Example of how to make the function calculated on data2 can be found here.
Code: Select all
BarsOfData(2).Close
