Delta Package V3 NT8.0.2 with COT, HA and strategy sample code

Delta Package V3 NT8.0.2 now with commitment of traders (COT) and heiken-ashi

Update Feb 2017: Changed "Show above / below EMA colors" to false to avoid confusion.

Minor fix 30 Dec: Added ability to change bar width manually. Note, if you have any custom built strategies using DeltaV3 then you will have to adjust your code as per the strategy sample included.

New: Sample code for use in a strategy is included. The strategy does not do anything, it simply shows how to access the delta values. It works, I've tested it. Make sure you use TickReplay on your host chart if you want historical values accessed within a strategy.

Includes everything from V2 here as well as these additions:

1. Commitment of traders: high, low and total.
2. EMA plot: Set to normal, gapless and reset at session open.
3. Heiken Ashi: Chose from the algorithms of Dan Valcu (standard) or Sylvain Vervoort.
4. Painbars based on delta values or above/below the ema.

Plus general improvements......

Make sure you enable Tick Replay to use this historically! You will not need Gom recorder for this.

However, Tick replay will not work with some Renko bars due to RemoveLastBar()

*Occasionally if the bid/ask plots don't look quite right, especially if you haven't connected for a few days, make sure you right-click on the chart and select "Reload all Historical Data".

** Please report bugs to me via PM rather than in the comments. Thank you.

Here is a picture of how you can use delta for your trading.

I am not affiliated with this person or website, but you can get some ideas here.

ColorInputSeriesSlopeChanges

I created a universal indicator that will alter the color based on slope change of "ANY" distinct, single-value dataseries in any panel.

To use this, you need to learn how to define the input series for the indicator (all done via the NT8 UI).

You can use �ANY� other available dataseries as input and the color change will be applied. No programing required; upper Bollinger band, lower Keltner band, HMA, TSI, MACD, etc� any indicator you have on your system can be used as the input dataseries for this indicator.

You need to understand how to change input series to use this indicator. This works the same as it did in previous Nijatrader releases.

Read up on this here for NT8

1.) go to control panel
2.) select help guide (F1)
3.) open Operations by selecting arrow head
4.) open Chart by selecting arrow head
5.) select Working with Indicators document
6.) open How to edit an indicator's parameters by selecting arrow head
scroll to bottom of this display to read about changing indicator input series

Note, this feature is recursive meaning you can do this multiple times for example
ColorInputSeriesSlopeChanges(ema(volume)))

You can change the colors used, the defaults are Red (down), Yellow(same or peak), or Green(up).

Yellow can indicate values that are identical but it can also represent what I call Peak. The Peak value is the bar that is the apex of the slope change (ie from up to down). You can also toggle the display of Peak off or on.

Reversal Bars for NT8 (BarType)

This bar type creates a new bar when price reverses by a pre-defined amount of ticks from the high/low of the bar. As soon as a new bar is created and price moves at least the amount of pre-defined ticks in one direction, the bar again, closes after a reversal of pre-defined ticks.

Version: 1.0 | Nov. 2016

The Close Marker can be found here.

Supply Demand Zones for NT8 (MTF)

The indicator plots supply and demand based zones from various time frames on the chart. It also adds a context menu item to the default Ninjatrader context menu to hide and show active and broken zones.

secondsperbar

Simply totals the seconds required to draw a bar. Designed to be used with non-time based bars. Includes 2 horizontal reference lines, for example can have the 1st line represent 60 seconds (1 minute) and 2nd line set to 180 seconds (3 minute). Bars change to red if the number of seconds exceeds your desired Maxsec threshold, for example turns bars red if 120 seconds (2 minutes) is exceeded. Includes ability to draw a SMA of the time as well that defaults to a 5 period.

Big Candle v1.0

Big Candle v1.0

Identify unusually large price movements. If the range for the bar is outside of the standard deviation then the bar gets highlighted. There are also options to draw arrows on your main chart, and trigger alerts.

Really good at warning you of large movements triggered by news.

Lines on the indicator show you the average range, and how much range deviates from that average. Basically if that bar is above the top line it will be highlighted. Try different values for the periods and deviation factor to get the movements that you want highlighted.

I recommend using the plots on the indicator to help get the settings that you want, and then resizing the panel to hide the plot. Then just rely on the arrows and alerts.

Files can also be obtained from Github:

The 'Squeeze' V1 cloned for NT8b13

The Squeeze V1 cloned for NT8b13

This is a 'clone'

of the infamous squeeze.

Find included a chart and a market analyzer version.

I have upgraded the original with new features:

* Instead of the standard multiplier setting I have replaced it with a use tick size option.
* Gapless option.
* Histogram:
Select between EMA, DEMA and TEMA for the histogram.
Set the MA and linear regression lengths separately.
Opacity.
* Paint bars added.
* Auto width adjustment option to adjust the width to the chart bar width.

The indicators have public properties for you to access in a strategy or the analyzer:

* Histogram value.
* Histogram direction: AboveUp = 2, AboveDown = 1, BelowUp = -1, BelowDown = -2
* Squeeze boolean: Squeeze or not to squeeze, that is the question

* Number of bars: How many bars ago an event happened (including the current bar).

Download the analyzer template here. Copy and paste to your NinjaTrader/Templates/Market Analyzer folder.

Once imported you will find the indicators within Sim22>Gapless.

If you would like to see more indicators uploaded I would encourage you to do the same.

Ed's Levels Histogram V2.3 Updated

Ed's Levels Histogram V4V2.3 Updated

This is a port of Ed's Levels V4 from NT7.

Shows a histogram of the bid-ask levels, as appears on the DOM display.

Please see here for the Eds levels thread and my latest beta update (V4V4.2). This update will hopefully reduce multi-threading issues.

The options are self explanatory, however, you can adjust the positioning of the plot by setting "Buffer Right" and "Margin %".

I have added some more features including:

* A vertical column showing the current Bid/Ask pressure.

* A vertical column showing the current bar delta.

* Triangle symbols showing the current average of the bid and ask. (These fill if the average is > 1st standard deviation of the other).

* Standard deviation coloring.

Caveat:

Occasionally when starting with market replay an error is printed, although in practice this rarely occurs and generally works seamlessly.

WorldClock for NT8

This is version 1.0 developed on NT8 RC1.

I had the need for an application to just show times in different time zones. The ones I found online either cost money, didn't work on Win10, or simply did more than I needed. So I created one for NT since that's the only place I really use a world clock.

This NT AddOn allows up to 5 times to be shown. The text boxes allow a city or whatever to be entered. The time zone drop downs allow you to select the time zone. And the font boxes allow you to change the style.

The elements are saved to the workspace upon save, so you don't have to re-enter them when you close and open the workspace. Once you are done setting up the clocks, you can resize the window to show only the clocks and not the settings.

The WorldClock is added as a menu item to the "New" menu in the NT control center box.

This is my first AddOn, I think I've covered all the bases, if you encounter any bugs or have enhancement suggestions, I'm all ears, please PM me.

Colour Time Bands

This indicator was provided elsewhere on the forum (thanks very much) and will show up to 3 different coloured backgrounds to the chart for different time zones - such as RTH / ETH and so on.

However, you (someone?) may want to fix these bugs: 1. When I close Ninja and re-open it disappears and needs to be re-loaded onto the chart; 2. I can't "save template"; 3. I would like to be able to treat it as a 24hr clock, in other words - if I enter 16:00 to 10:00 it should shade the entire overnight session. Rather, these indicators seem to get stuck at midnight and hence you need a few bands (so I can work around this if I need to).

Chart Notes

This is simply a NT8 port of the Chart Notes control that I downloaded from futures.io.

I simplified it, in that there are now one set of parameters for each corner of the chart where text is possible. In addition, the string[] parameter did not work in the property grid. Switched to a normal string with a multiline editor.

Minor problem: for some strange reason, the ENTER key does not work in the multiline editor, so it is not possible to add additional lines of text. For the moment I just work around this by adding a few empty lines and later using a very brute force (dumb) approach to strip the empty lines. Works for the moment.

Must reference the assemblies: System.Design and System.Drawing.Design. These are needed to use the multiline input controls in the property grids.

JTRelativeVolume

Relative Volume aka CSI (Cumulative Sheep Index)

I have had this indicator converted from NT7 for use on NT8

This indicator shows volume at the time of day relative to the prior n days. This is very useful in terms of identifying when volume is picking up or slowing down. The absolute value is not as important as whether it is rising or falling. As participation changes, the price action changes too. Probably one of the best ways to analyze volume/participation in the markets.

Tried and tested on NT8 8.0.0.12 64-bit (Standard) - BETA

Volume Accumulation

Volume based indicator. It has no period or parameters required. There is one option to show the Bar-Bar accumulation if desired but the default is the "summed" value. (integrated over time)

Code based upon:
https://commodity.com/technical-analysis/volume-accumulation/

"The Volume Accumulation indicator combines volume and a price-weighting that attempts to show the strength of conviction behind a trend; the Volume Accumulation indicator might prove useful in uncovering divergences. The formula for the Volume Accumulation formula is shown below:

Volume x [Close - (High + Low)/2]

The formula only gives positive volume to the day if the close is higher than the midpoint of the high and low. If the close is towards the lower half of the range of the price action, then volume is negative for the day."

FootPrint Chart for NT8

Updates 7/14/2016:
- complied on NT8b12, may not work in earlier versions
- thanks to Sim22 for some great code modifications to make the chart more stable and kill some bugs

This is a standard footprint chart that shows bid/ask market orders or volume/delta bars. It doesn't have a lot of the bells and whistles that some other (paid) versions have, but I find it sufficient for my needs.

Candlestick bars can be shown to the left of the footprint bars and/or as an outline in the footprint bar. It also allows to indicate the close and high volume bars in the footprint.

If you find any bugs or have any enhancement suggestions, please PM me.

NOTES:

You must turn on Tick Replay otherwise the chart will not show historical bar values. Charts that do not support Tick Replay (Renko for example) will not work. Line charts will also not show the footprint bars.

Charts with a high Days to Load value (15+) will take more time to initially load as there's a lot of values to historically calculate before the chart can be displayed.

I suggest using a fixed width font (Consolas, Lucida, etc.) for the Bar Font as the numbers line up and makes the chart more readable.

There's no easy to way that I found to auto scale the bar width and spacing based on the font size, so these are manual adjustments via Bar Spacing and Bar Width. Bar Spacing controls the spacing between the bars and Bar Width controls how wide the bars are. If you change the font from the default Consolas 12px, you may need to increase or decrease these values to adjust the bars.

The chart will attempt to auto scale to compress the footprint bars so there's little to no spacing between the bars. The scaling is based on the chart window size, so if you size the window small, it may not look great if there's a lot of bars on the chart. If you don't like the auto scaling, you can turn it off in the indicator properties via Visual->Auto scale.

Credits: The OnMarketData algorithm to calculate volume values was taken from the 'bid ask for ninja8' indicator by @zohar.

Sample - How to manipulate MarketAnalyzer display V1 NT8b11

This is only a basic sample I've been toying with. You can use this concept for coding your own indicators. I became frustrated with the lack of display customization I've been accustomed to with other platforms (TS RadarScreens etc.) so I thought I'd play with some ideas.

On my analyzer I want values, colors and arrows. Normal fonts don't really have that flexibility.
I made four new fonts that are packed with heaps of new symbols and arrows so it should suit everyone.
(Sorry, only Latin type alphabet included - if you need Russian or something, let me know).
To access the new characters, open Character Map and peruse. See instructions.

I also had the issue of coloring the analyzer cells to the conditions I wanted. Is an EMA value of 1225.25 up or down?
I have modified the code to deceive the anayzer so it will color the cells accordingly.
I have also added a 'barsAgo figure that gives you an idea of how to add extra values to your display.
It's not exactly finesse but it works

Please extract the zip file first. It will not import directly to NinjaTrader.
Import the fonts first before opening NT8 or it will not detect the fonts are installed

Find included:

* Full instructions. Please read them first!
* Four new fonts that are packed with 100's of new symbols and arrows.
* Template.
* Code on how to manipulate your market analyzer display.

Small shortcomings:

Read the instructions.

Remember this is for Beta11 NT8, so any bugs or suggestions please PM me accordingly.

Drawing Tool Toolbar V3.5 NT8b11

Critical fix V3.5. Please remove all previous versions from your charts before installing, then reboot NT8.

*As of NT8 beta 11 this is functional but may need updating in the future. So please be patient. The toolbar still has minor bugs (see ** section at the bottom) so please recheck here for new updates from time to time. Please let me know if you are having any unusual issues, since it is working for most users. Since we are all still learning the intricacies of NT8 , this toolbar is a project in progress

Make sure you extract the zip file first or it won't import! When you download the zip file it will still be named V1....this is a forum issue....but you will find the updated version inside. Inside you will find instructions and icons to use. Read the instructions carefully or you will have icons missing etc.

Displays functioning drawing tool icons on the left of the chart.

* Accesses drawing tools via hot keys.

* The user can select which drawing tool icons are to be displayed.

* Set icon size from small to large.

* Appropriate drawing tools have a drop-down color palette.

* Toolbar width automatically adjusts to the height of the chart to accommodate the icons.

* If you can code: You can add your own custom drawing tools with comments to help you with insertion.

Coding examples:

* Multi-dimensional arrays
* Working with grids/wrap panels
* Windows and NT8 menus
* Adding bitmap images to a menu
* Using virtual keystrokes to activate hot keys
* Accessing drawn objects and manipulating their properties.
* Parsing string values

Version 2 is also included. It is now superseded by V3 but included for code examples using buttons instead of menus.

A big thank you to Chelsea Bell @ NinjaTrader for the toolbar structure sample. This toolbar had to be completely re-engineered for Windows Presentation Foundation.

As always, please send me a personal message if you have a bug, query or request.

Update history and potential problems:

Update V3.5 July 1 - Critical Fix: Fixed some termination issues from V3.3.

Update V3.4 June 26 - Stopped the toolbar from hijacking indicator-created drawing objects.

Update V3.3 Fixed Andrews Pitchfork channel colors.
Added complete removal of objects upon termination.

** Known issues reported, which I will endeavor to fix:

1. Issues with tabbed charts. Toolbar replicates itself when using tabbed charts.
2. Drawing tools will not change color on a tabbed (behind) chart.
3. Arc will not custom paint an area color. (Probably NT8 bug).

Calendar Day bars + Moon Phases V1.1 NT8b11

Calendar Day bars + Moon Phases V1.2 NT8b13

Update 9 Jun:
The moon phase was slightly out. I have added code to take into account UTC time, different time zones and exchanges.
Update 19 Nov:
Some had troubles importing the indicator due to older beta versions.

This one was a bit of a challenge so I thought I'd give it a go

Calendar Day Bars are my attempt to do what NT has not yet done..... that is, plot bars in calendar days not just trading days.

Why would anybody need this?

1. W.D.Gann often used 'natural' days in his analysis.
2. When using astrology and geometry they can benefit from plotting indicators on all calendar days.
3. When price/time 'squaring' a chart, calendar day bars can provide different results to daily bars only.

You should use the Calendar Day bar chartstyle as this will omit plotting the dummy weekend bars.

Find included a little 'Moon Phase' indicator, that plots the four major phases of the moon's cycle. If you use Calendar Day bars the moon phase will often plot on the weekends or holidays, the correct day.

Please read the instructions within the zip file first.
To extract the zip file: Right click on the file > Extract All.
You will need to import the 'Jyotish' font type included.

Remember this is for beta so please PM me for any problems or suggestions.

Better Renko Bar Type NJ 8.0.0.13

This is the NinjaTrader 8 version of BetterRenkoV2.

This Renko bar type is backtestable. It does not generate false "fill-in" bars. It maintains a true OHLC and displays properly with the Candlestick ChartStyle. If you want it to look like bricks, use the BetterBrick ChartStyle.

This is a tick-based bar, so initial loading can be slow. The NT8 "Break at EOD" feature is also supported, allowing bars to continue across session breaks.

You can find the discussion thread here: https://nexusfi.com/elite-circle/4978-better-renko.html

History:
v1 20100807 - @Aslan created BetterRenko to address issues with other types of Renko bars
v2 20101118 - @Aslan changed initial brick alignment to brick size
v2 20150719 - @Dalebru converted to NT8. Exported with NinjaTrader 8.0.0.5
v2 20160508 - @antonma fixed SessionIterator compiler error for NinjaTrader 8.0.0.9
