Setting Up an Indicator
The indicator itself is a chart series but with some additional sampling applied over the data before it gets plotted on the chart. The indicators are added in the Indicators collection of RadCartesianChart.
Example 1: Defining TrueRangeIndicator
<telerik:RadCartesianChart.Indicators>
<telerik:TrueRangeIndicator CategoryBinding="Date"
HighBinding="High"
LowBinding="Low"
CloseBinding="Close"
ItemsSource="{Binding Data}"/>
</telerik:RadCartesianChart.Indicators>The indicator is populate using the same approach as shown in the Data Bind to Data-Object article. You can set the corresponding value binding properties - for example, ValueBinding, CategoryBinding, HighBinding, CloseBinding, etc. Additionally, you can apply different options based on the concrete indicator's implementation.
See the Financial and Stock Series/Indicators examples in the demos application for a demonstration of the indicators.
