This is a modified version of the standard ZigZag NT indicator. Input is swing size in ticks.
I was looking for a lightweight swing indicator to use in another project and decided to modify the standard one.
This is a relative volume indicator. I have manually gathered volume data and performed the calculations to verify that the indicator is accurate.
It is based on time, so cannot be used on non-time-based bars. If you do so, it will, at best, show nothing. At worst, it might blow up on you.
It calculates the average volume for the bar with the same Close() time over the previous X number of days. The value of X is input by the user.
It then compares the volume of the current bar to the average volume for that time of day. A negative result means that the current bar has below average volume and a positive result means the current bar has greater than average volume.
Be aware that the greater the number of days being averaged and the shorter the duration of the bars, the longer it'll take to plot the values. I hope the community finds this indicator useful.
Edit:
Oh, and I want to also let you know that if there are fewer days on the chart than what's entered in the lookback parameter (or whatever I called it), the indicator will provide the value based on the number of days available. Just be sure you have days enough on the chart to give you the values you're looking for.
Edit 2:
In answer to the question about a similar indicator for range bars, I'm afraid the logic won't hold up for that. This indicator looks for bars with the same time stamp from prior days. Range bars close at totally random times, based on how far price moves. It's very, very unlikely there'd EVER be one on a prior day that closed at the same time as a range bar from the current day.

Note: Found and fixed a bug and added an additional pattern, as well as the ability to paint the entire bar or just the outline
This indicator identifies candlestick patterns as bars develop and historically. You can click on the bars to see the pattern identified. The core of the patterns uses those in the Ninjatrader CandleStick Pattern indicator. Additional patterns have been added and this searches for ALL the patterns. If more than one pattern is identified, it will show you all of them. The indicator also keeps score based on the patterns identified (bullish + 1, bearish - 1) which is exposed as a series named Trigger so you can use it for other indicators or strategies. If there are any CandleStick pattern experts out there that want to add patterns or find any errors with those already present, please let me know and perhaps we can make this even better.
Also note: There is an NT7 version of the site. bitDavid identified some errors (thank you). That version will not be supported. Pleasure use the current NT8 version.
***Note*** After you import this Chart style, you will have to re-start NinjaTrader. ***End Note***
I tried using an indicator that was built to plot multi-period candles but I found it was resource "heavy".
Additionally the indicator had some issues when used on different Trading Hour Templates.
The result was to modify the "Box" Chart Style that was built into NT-8 to plot a Candlestick.
The default color choices were based on my preferences for Black background charts,
You will need to decide on your own preferences and then save them as a default on your platform.
Special thanks are due to @TWDsje (aka SpeculatorSeth) for his coding expertise in completing this task.

Chart Time indicator to find Lag in seconds and milliseconds
It will display three things in the upper right corner of the chart:
• The core time of NT8
• The chart time of NT8
• The difference of the two times (if the Chart time is behind the core time, it will be a negative number).
EXAMPLE
Here is an example of what you will see in the upper right corner of your chart when you load the indicator on your chart:
12:29:28:529 12:29:28:257 -00.272
USE
I watch this indicator near the start and end of the regular session when my charts will typically lag the market. While trading these times or any other high volume times, when I see a chart lag, I then use the DOM to ensure I see the fastest pricing information that NT8 offers (that I have found).
I didn't build the indicator, just found it on ninjatrader forum (it seems to me that more people are having problems with the lagging of ninjatrader)
This is a fork from Lizard's amaATR's 1.1 version and when installed will also be put into the Lizard folder as "atrTick". Essentially, I created this because ATR is such an important concept and the way the current indicators are built is to give a value based on points. This makes "at a glance" analysis hard because you need to do some arithmetic.
This indicator will display the ATR in either ticks or dollars and will make your chart or Market Analyzer cleaner as comparisons between different instruments makes more sense. In the 15M screenshot provided, it looks like /YM moves the most on the default ATR, but because of it's point value it actually moves less than the /ES and /NQ in terms of dollar value. Another great example is /ZB. It doesn't move many ticks, but it's dollar amount is comparable to the /ES
V 1.1
Fixed the archive and a rounding error for the dollar value, so you should get the exact dollar amount relative to ticks.

March 13th, 2020 03:28 PM Koepisch Hi there @hobbys11, @trepidation,
i can't get it, what the "core time of NT8" really is. What has it to do with the dom and why the chart time has a negat
iv offset. If the chart lags i expect the chart time is the DOM time + x ms, isn't it?
Has it anything to to with the "data feed lag" calculation. Initially i looked for an indicator which compares the datet
ime of the incoming tick with the local computer time, to evaluate data feed / internet routing latency. I'm afraid, tha
t this has nochting to do with this indicator.
March 7th, 2020 06:47 PM trepidation Try installing the TickRefresh indicator to see if that fixes the problem. I know the chart doesn't refresh as quickly a
s the DOM and the TickRefresh indicator solves this issue at the expense of processing power in my experience.
September 5th, 2023 12:37 PM Tradarr Thanks! Can you add squeeze plots for Market Analyzer and Chart Alerts?
August 8th, 2023 07:32 PM MTCTrades AWESOME indicator! Keeps me out of chop, clearly signals when to get in - even uncovered a safe way to enter on reversal
s after exhaustion! SO pleased and grateful to you for sharing this excellent work.
