Commitment of Traders (COT)

There is no real download here (the attached file, "cot.txt", is just a dummy file in order to satisfy the requirements of adding an entry).

Just want to highlight the stock Commitment of Traders (COT) indicator that comes with NT8 and how to set it up. emazing was requesting this and didn't know that it was already available. I'm putting it here to alert everyone of this indicator and how to set it up.

For full information, see: https://ninjatrader.com/blog/track-institutional-trading-with-new-cot-indicator

Setup:
1) Go to: Tools -> Options -> Market data
2) Once there, click on: Download COT data at startup
3) After doing this, restart NT.
4) Add the COT indicator to a weekly chart (Released every Friday at 3:30pm by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission)

Included here is a weekly chart with the COT indicator.

RSI With 4 User Defined Zones

This script was requested by @Mtype for Ninja Trader 8 -
https://nexusfi.com/elite-circle/1261-want-your-ninjatrader-indicator-created-free-1662.html

It is an RSI oscillator with a smoothing moving average. Four zones are drawn with user selectable colors and opacity. The zone sizes are also user defined.

This will give you a quick visual idea on the location of the RSI, among other things.

It can be combined with other indicators, such Stochastics and CCI, by using Transparent colors for the built in RSI indicator.

Multi Volume profile template with trend

I've updated the Multi-Volume profile template.

Included is a 1, 7 and 30 day profile.
Added to this version are the Daily and Weekly pivots, along with the TrendGRaber that forrestang posted on 1.22.21 (included in zip)

All other indicators are available through the NT8 lifetime license platform.

I should mention: When unzipping for the template: place the Futures.I.O..xml into the Documents>NinjaTrader8>Templates> Chart.

For the trendgrabber indicator, place it in Documents>NinjaTrader8>import

Thanks,
Brett

Edit: Added instructions for placement and had the wrong indicator in the zip.
Edit 3.28.21: uploaded new template for 8.0.21.0 build - DM me if it's not working. I really don't check my uploads.

SSL Channel

Version 1.00

I've seen this indicator on many other platforms but not NinjaTrader. in general, it plots the SMA of the Highs and Lows of the bars to display trend, and possible changes.

I use it in 2 ways (both are pictured). The most common is on the chart with the primary data series. I generally set colors for just Up and Down with the other 3 Transparent. Mid and Max may be used here.

For the second mode, use it in a new pane and set all plots to transparent except SSLDir but make it plot as a bar and the appropriate width.

I have found a setting around 10 works pretty good for time-based charts and around 4 for fixed-height (renko, range) charts.

Bollinger/Keltner Squeeze (Ver 1.1)

gbBollingerKeltnerSqueeze, Ver 1.0, TraderGB, February 6, 2021 [Updated to Ver 1.1]

Description: Draws rectangle around price bars to indicate squeeze.

At the point where both the upper and lower Bollinger bands enter the Keltner channel, the upper and lower rectangle points are defined and are fixed for the life of the rectangle. A TriangleUp/TriangleDown is used to indicate the point where the squeeze starts (squeeze point).

The left most point of the rectangle is also defined and fixed at this point. It draws backward based on BreakTypeUsed (UseClose, UseHiLo). If BreakTypeUsed=UseClose is used, it keeps drawing the rectangle backwards until there is a close outside of the rectangles upper or lower points. If BreakTypeUsed=UseHiLo is used, it keeps drawing the rectangle backwards until there is either a low that is above the upper squeeze point or a high that is below the lower squeeze point. This same logic is used for escaping the rectangle going forward. It keeps moving the right most point until this criteria is met. Since BB/KB are based off of lagging moving averages, a rectangle is draw backwards/forwards from the squeeze point to give context.

Note, there can be overlapping rectangles. If the criteria is met to end the rectangle, another squeeze can take place shortly after and the new rectangle will form and start drawing backwards and possible into a prior rectangle. This is normal and happens more often with BreakTypeUsed=UseClose since this is easier to achieve than BreakTypeUsed=UseHiLo.

Updates:
Ver 1.1 04-19-2021:
1) Fixed XML settings on Opacity

FisherHistogramWave

Hello Traders, this indicator is one of my favorites. The fisher indicator is basically a histogram that tells you what the trend is at the moment. User controls include Period for the indicator, Price Candle outline colors, background color and opacity, histogram wave color and opacity, histogram bar colors, and the Buy-Sell Sound Alert. As with many of my indicators, it only calculates what is shown on the screen to save calculations. If you scroll back, hit f5 to refresh the indicator.

Trade Well...
Bob

R1 2/11/2021: I don't use Bloodhound or other automated tools, but one user found that this indie does not work with Bloodhound. I found that the problem is with the calculations limited to what is on screen... I found the issue and it is an easy fix. In the zip are two indicators. FisherHistWav is the original that only calculates what is on the screen and FisherHistWavFull calculates the entire history and works with Bloodhound. I will add a new version of all of the indicators that I have posted that have the calculation limiter in a similar manner.

Growing Your Account Worksheet

This is not a NinjaTrader indicator but rather an Excel spreadsheet. I created it a long time ago and thought it might be useful to share.

It will help traders to let them see how they can grow their accounts over almost a one year time frame.

There are 3 sheets, Inputs, Details and Options (see the tabs at the bottom of the first page).

On the Inputs sheet there are 6 different cells with blue backgrounds for you to complete.
They are all drop-down lists that are activated by clicking the cell and then the down arrow.

Choose Contract - either ES, GC, NQ, MES or MNQ
Initial Number of Contracts to Trade - a value from 1 to 10
Net Tick Target Per Day Per Contract - a value from 1 to 100
Initial Account Size - from $3,000 to $20,000
Increase Contracts by 1 after What Increase in Account Size - from $3,000 to $20,000
Pay Yourself How Much Every Friday? from $0 to $5,000

At the bottom of the Inputs sheet you will see the initial results and below that the results after every 10 weeks.

If you click on the Details sheet you will be able to see the weekly results for almost 1 year.

Each sheet is protected. The password is charles after the late Charles Cochran from Inside Edge Trading.

Moving Average Cross Over Background Color - v1.3

This indicator was created at the request of @ssubterfuge
https://nexusfi.com/elite-circle/1261-want-your-ninjatrader-indicator-created-free-1656.html

This indicator displays a change in chart background color when two moving averages of your choice cross over. Or you can choose to display a shaded rectangle instead of the chart background color shading. A third option is that you can display both, the background and the rectangle shading simultaneously.

You can select an offset, by a number of bars, to start displaying after the moving averages have crossed.

There is an option to plot the moving averages selected.

The available moving averages you can select include:
EMA,
SMA,
HMA,
WMA,
DEMA,
TMA,
TEMA,
ZLEMA,
VMA

UPDATED (2021 Feb 11 - Version 1.1): Allow you to select one moving average type for the slow MA and a different moving average type for the fast MA.

UPDATED (2021 Feb 15 - Version 1.2): Added VMA to the list of available moving average types.

UPDATED (2021 Mar 11 - Version 1.3): Added KAMA & MAMA to the list of available moving average types.

Congestion Box CustomV1 ( CBoxCustomV1 )

Note: If you find bugs, have feature requests, or anything else, please post here:
https://nexusfi.com/ninjatrader/56592-lesterb-indicator-thread-just-placeholder.html

Many thanks to the creator of the Congestion Box for Range Bars, jabeztrading, who posted his NT7 indie on FIO 10 years ago next month. Since that time a few traders, especially BobC, have continued to update and add functionality to the new NT8 version.

This customization:

adds selectable minimum number of bars for your CBox
adds selectable maximum tick differential between the Open and Close of your CBox bars
adds a diamond shape at double tops and double bottoms of your bars
adds a diamond shape at your choice of ticks above/below CBox to show a break up or break down to a specific level
adds selectable sound alerts (adaptation from BobC again) for

:
initial formation of your CBox
double tops and double bottoms
warning of a breakout 1 tick above or below CBox boundaries

double top and double bottom markers are done with purple and pink diamonds respectively
your break up and break down confirmation markers are done with green and blue

diamonds respectively.

Congestion boxes settings will vary from instrument to instrument. You will probably have experiment with the settings until you find what you want for your instrument. There will be some discussion at the thread above regarding how I use CBoxes in my trading.

EMASlopeBands

I added bands to the EMASlope indicator. The bands are calculated from the volatility of the candles. The user sets a multiplier for the bands. In this pic the EMA is set to 34 and the multiplier is set to 1.57 (Pi/2). You can see that in the churn areas, the price stays within the channels of the bands until it breaks out.

Features:
Set the color of EMA and Bands according to slope (30 and 60 degrees in pic)
You can color the background according to the slope of the EMA (shown at 20% opacity).
The distance (ticks) from top band to bottom band is displayed on the screen.
Button on axis to hide the plots, allowing several EMA with different periods to show or not.
EMA Period and Band multiplier shown in button. Title shows EMA period with indie name.

R1: 3/10/21: Added margin label font size control to user panel per request from JC195461.
R2: 2/28/2022: I normalized Bands to accommodate fractional TickSize.

Trade Well...
Bob
