The following code allows you to add Chart buttons to NinjaTrader Version 7.0
These buttons can be used to toggle values in a strategy or execute orders when clicked. This is very useful in adding an additional level of control to your strategy. When trading using a strategy you can use the buttons to expose some of the strategy features and toggle them on and off based on market conditions.
