LineBreakWicked Bar Timer
06/21/2011: (Ver 1.4) Added the option to show "repeat counter" on main chart beside price in the right margin (optional) and to only have the repeat counter pop up when the value goes over 1. (per request from members).
NOTE: Will look at adding Minute based bars to the counter on next release...
None of the Ninja counters/timers will work with LineBreak or LineBreakWicked bars. For example, Bars.TickCount and Bars.PercentComplete return un-useable values for LineBreakWicked.
The standard Ninja supplied bar timers/bar counters also demand that a bar complete and then move on the next bar when total ticks/volume have been hit, but a LineBreakWicked chart can stay on the same bar for many ticks, until it completes by "breaking" the number of bars parameter.
This indicator works around these problems.
It works with either Tick or Volume based LineBreakWicked bar types.
Configurable.....
- Displays either either the ongoing "count" or the "count remaining" value
- Displays either actual count or the percentage
- Displays a graphics bar that visually shows the fill progress of the bar
Also
- Displays a second count (to the left) of how many times this LineBreakWicked bar has hit it's tick/volume "limit".
(Ex: how many times a 150tick LineBreakWicked actually went through 150 ticks before breaking a level and moving on)
Last but not least....
- The entire Bar Counter can be moved to TopLeft, TopRight, BottomLeft, BottomRight, or Center
- The entire Bar Counter can be 'shifted' up or down by xx pixels.
- Text Font and Plot colors are configurable
Original graphics code is based on the FancyBarTimer (by tobbe...2010)

Thanks...are you planning on making this work with minute based bars as well?

Good work. Thanks!
Eventually, I would like to see all of the bar timers: time, range, tick, volume, line break, range counter, etc combined into one that is capable of auto sensing the type of chart it is on by testing the value of Bars.Period.Id PeriodType.
