T3Slope

Hello Traders, a trader that downloaded the EMASlope indicator asked if the same slope color scheme could be added to the T3 indicator. The T3 is considered a swing indicator which is suitable for all timeframes and trading instruments including forex, stocks, commodities, cryptocurrencies, indices, etc. Presented in 1998 by Tim Tillson, it is also known as the Tillson Moving Average. It was developed to minimize false signals that are common with other MA's... Some traders trade PA above/below, and the more conservative will trade with the slope and PA above/below

Shown is the T3Slope with Period = 55, Tcount 7 and VFactor0.7 on a 144Tick YM Chart.
The slope color in this case, changes at +/-15 degrees and +-45 degrees. The colors can be selected to only change for upslope and downslope or for degress as shown. The background can be set to show slope dependent color and opacity. There is also a button to disable the indicator located on the Time axis. The button has the indicator name and Period on its face. Also there is a label in the right margin that colors with the indicator. All parameters are user selectable

Give it a spin and leave a comment...
Trade Well
Bob

gbMAxMTFx4

Script: gbMAxMTFx4 (Ver 1.0 by TraderGB, March 2021) Corrected Entry

Description: This indicator will draw four moving averages/filters based on user input. It is mainly used to draw higher frame moving averages/filters on lower frame charts to give reference to market condition (trending, consolidating, etc) from the higher frame perspective. Four averages are used to give some clarity of this. The indicator allows you to choose
from several bar types and averages/filters (see below).

Installation: This file contains four bar types that require a restart of NT after being imported. Bar types are: Reversal, Delta, BetterRenko, and UniRenko. If you already have these, just skip over them during the import. Included in the zip file are many indicators. If you have made any customizations to any of these named scripts, you should consider skipping that particular indicator when it prompts you to [skip or overwrite]. If you have made changes and you overwrite, your custom code is gone. You may want to make a backup copy of your indicator directory before you import just to be on the safe side. You only have to worry about this if the name of a script in this zip file matches one you already have.

Available Bar Types (* non-standard NT bar types; requires installation and restart NT):
Month, Week, Day, Minute, Range, Second, Tick, Volume, Renko, (* Reversal, Delta, BetterRenko, UniRenko)

Updates:
1) The following are set to false. You may want to set them to true and recompile:

IsAutoScale = true;
DrawHorizontalGridLine = true;
DrawVerticalGridLines = true;

Available Moving Averages/Filters:
AdaptiveExponentialMA, AdaptiveLaguerreFilter, AhrensMA, AverageDirectionalVariableMA, AutoRegression, ArnaudLegouxMA, Butterworth_2Poles, Butterworth_3Poles, DonchianChannelMean, DoubleExponentialMA, DistantCoefficientFilter, DeviationScaledMA, ExponentialHullMA, ExponentialMA, ElasticVolumeWeightedMA, GaussianFilter_2Poles, GaussianFilter_3Poles, McGinleyDynamic, HeikinAshiZeroLagTripleEMA, HullMA, HoltEMA,JurikMA, KaufmanAdaptiveMA, LaguerreFilter, LinearRegression, MovingMeanTPO, MovingMeanVWTPO, MovingMedian, MovingMedianTPO, MovingMedianVWTPO, Percentile_50, RangeWeightedMA, ReverseEngineeredRSI_50, SimpleMA, SineWeightedMA, SuperSmoother_2Poles, SuperSmoother_3Poles, Tillson3MA, TimeSeriesForecast, TripleExponentialMA, TripleWeightedMA, TriangularMA, VariableIndexDynamicAverage, VariableIndexDynamicAverageCMO, VolumeWeightedEMA, VolumeWeightedMA, WeightedMA, ZeroLagExponentialMA, ZeroLagTripleExponentialMA

Primary Input Parameters:
1) Bar Type (see gbMAxMTFx4_BarTypeEnum enum for list of available bar types)
2) Bar Value
3) Moving Average Type (see gbMAxMTFx4_MATypeEnum enum for list of available averages and filters)
4) Four Moving Average Lengths (Period 1, 2, 3, 4)

Non-Standard NinjaTrader Bar Types Used (you'll need to install these if you don't already have them):
1) Reversal Bars
2) Delta Bars
3) BetterRenko Bars
4) UniRenko Bars

UniRenko Parameters: If using a UniRenko Bar, you'll need to specify the Bar Values in the "Parameters - UniRenko" area.
1) Tick Trend
2) Tick Reversal
3) Open Offset

Limitations:
1) This indicator is not intended to have a frame less that the host chart. This should not present any runtime issues, but be mindful that plots are displayed based on the frame used by the host chart. Thus, if price goes up 10 points and then down 10 points before the host chart bar closes, you're not going to see this. The proper
way to use this indicator is with a higher frame than the host chart (i.e., 10 min indicator on 1 min chart, etc).
2) Most averages require a minimum of 1 period, except for: DeviationScaledMA (2), Holt EMA (2), Kaufman Adaptive MA (5), Linear Regression (2), Percentile (4). If you enter a value less that the minimum, the script will use the minimum but display what you used as input.
3) This script uses averages/filters that mostly use Length as there main input. Indicators such as MAMA and iTrend were not included since they don't use Lenght as an input.
4) Default values are used for parameters in some averages/filters that require more than Length as input, such as: Arnaud Legoux Moving Avg, Butterworth Filter, Deviation Scaled MA, Gaussian Filter, Jurik MA, KaufmanAdaptiveMA, Percentile, Reverse Engineered RSI, and Tillson3 MA.
5) Some averages/filters require a short and long term period as input (i.e., VariableIndexDynamicAverage). In these cases the Length is used as the short-term period and the long-term period is three times the Length.

gbKalmanFilter

The Kalman filter is an algorithm that uses a series of measurements observed over time, containing statistical noise and other inaccuracies. It was originally devised to work with noisy and incomplete data. Mainly designed for and applied in dynamic systems... such as price data on charts.

Details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalman_filter

The screenshot contains two identical price charts (Range Bar 10). It shows the Kalman Filter with different gain settings:

Gain = 20 Pink
Gain = 200 Yellow
Gain = 500 Cyan
Gain = 1000 Red

Sim22_DeltaV4

Kudos to Gomi, Sim22 and Zondor for this excellent Cumulative Delta indicator. It was modified per NitroG's request so that it would work in NT8 version 8.0.23.1.

On import the indicator will be stored in the Sim22 folder and as Sim22_Delta4 and should not interfere with Sim22_Delta3.

Make sure you have Tick Replay on when using this indicator.

Please let me know if you run into any issues.

Enjoy,

gbZigZagFibExtRet (Important Update Ver 1.2)

gbZigZagFibExtRet, Ver 1.2, TraderGB, March 21, 2021 [Important Update Ver 1.2...see updates below]

Description:
This is a modification of the ZigZagUTG script that shows Fibonacci retracement and/or extension percentages. The indicator allows you to choose what you want to see (Show Text: None, Retracement, Extension, Both). There are also different options for how you what the indicator to appear on the screen (color, opacity, line width, text offset, show lines in front or behind bars, show: dots, lines, both or none).

Updates:
2021-03-21 (Ver 1.1): Added developing current swing retracement/extension percentages.
2021-06-01 (Ver 1.2): Corrected bug in script where array list disallowed duplicate pivot values. This would cause a miscalculation of the percentage values where there are back to back swing highs or lows with the same value.

Sody's Zero Lag Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)

This is my entry to the challenge for the best indicator. While this indicator is nothing flashy like my past indicators, I am submitting it due to the fact that it is a reliable signal.

It is a MACD but calculated using a momentum-adjusted moving average that I call a zero-lag moving average because it is the closest thing I can get to that adjust for the lag in a filter. It works similar to a EMA, but instead of weighting the front end of the indicator to reduce lag (base effect), it adjusts the from on the moving average for a near-term ROC (momentum).

Use wisely!

Cheers,
Sody

APR 26 2021 UPDATE: It came to my attention that the file was a locked DLL, I have corrected the issue, you can now download the source code from here.

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.

MarketRetrace

This indie looks at yesterdays High and Low and todays High and Low. It paints yesterdays High and Low on todays chart, as well as the mid and RMS values of yesterdays High and Low. The RMS values are estimated as 70.7% and 29.3% for a sine wave. It also paints todays High and Low. These values can be interesting turning points. All levels are labeled in the right side margin (I recommend a margin of 100). I posted a similar indie in NT7 called Pivots Plus that was very popular . This one does not have the pivots included, you can add that to the chart. This one does have a button to hide the indie if you want to declutter your chart.

Here is the wiki definition of RMS...
In mathematics and its applications, the root mean square (RMS or rms) is defined as the square root of the mean square (the arithmetic mean of the squares of a set of numbers).[1] The RMS is also known as the quadratic mean[2][3] and is a particular case of the generalized mean with exponent 2. RMS can also be defined for a continuously varying function in terms of an integral of the squares of the instantaneous values during a cycle.

I hope that you find it interesting....

EdsLevel2CustomV1

As Sim22 said in his excellent Eds Level2 V4.4: "Speculator Ed's Level 2 indicator inspired from John Thom's jtRealStats indicator."

This customization:

adds selectable DOM bid/ask sizes to be drawn and selectable DOM bid/ask sizes for alerts
adds selectable sound files from the Sounds folder for alert warnings
adapted BobC's logic for picking those alert audio files
alerts print in the Alerts Log with DOM size and price level
cumulative depth calculation uses only chosen DOM sizes for totals (this is to the left of the bid/ask numbers)

Set Up:
Chart Properties need to be adjusted for Right margin size. 88 works very well.
Sound files need to be created in the NinjaTrader8 sounds folder if you require specific audio files.

Trend GRaBer Indicator for FIO

Note: If you find bugs, have feature requests, or anything else, post in THIS thread.

This is the TrendGRaBer, ORIGINALLY created by @ Aligator. His NT7 version can be found HERE, and the NT8 version he created is on NT's EcoSystem HERE.

This indicator is based on a setup by Mrs. Raghee Horner. The credit for the setup goes to Mrs. Horner, and the indicator development to Aligator.

If interested in more information about trading this system, you can watch a webinar she posted HERE.

The indicator is simple, in that it produces 3 moving averages, based on a the High, Close and Low. These 3 MAs produce a channel. Prices that close ABOVE the channel are painted based on the bar's Open-Close relationship. Prices BELOW in a similar fashion. Closes in between the upper/lower channel a different color, also based on the individual bar's Open-Close relationship.

The indicator updates in real-time, on each tic.

The MA types available are:

EMA
SMA
HMA
WMA
DEMA
TMA
TEMA
ZLEMA

Again, this indicator is not my idea, but based on the setup by Mrs. Horner, and the indicator built by Aligator.

---EDIT - 24January2020---
This indicator was renamed to Trend GRaBer with proper citations provided.

HMAwaveSmooth

Hello Traders...
This is another adaptation of the HMA. Big Mike built a similar indie years ago for NT7 and it was based on the EMA. I like the HMA because it hugs price better and changes direction sooner. This indie paints 2 HMAs that trail the primary HMA by x candles. This HMA can be smoothed by an EMA of 1 or greater periods. In addition you can color the background based on the slope of the HMA. As with many of my recent indicators, they only calculate what is on the screen. The indie will not show if you scroll back until you hit F5 to recalculate. There is a button on the axis to hide the indicator, so you can bring it into view, evaluate and hide it to declutter your chart. You can add a few characters to the button to differentiate from other indicator buttons.

In the pic is an HMA34, Smoothed by 2 and with the wave 3 bars back.

Trade Well
Bob

r1 (1/23/2021) Max Value for Smooth and HMAback were limited to 100, now open.

r2 (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. HMAwaveSmooth is the original that only calculates what is on the screen and HMAwaveSmoothFull 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.
r3 (7/8/2021): changed the description of "Smooth" in the user panel to "Smooth(EMA)" as this is actually the EMA of the HMAwave. By minimizing the HMA, the wave becomes an EMA wave. The HMA can only be set to a minimum of 2, as it is limited by the NT8 HMA function. Both the original and the "Full" version are in the zip.

final rev?: An FIO trader contacted me to add arrows to the swings. In this rev, I added the arrows and also added a filter which is another (larger) HMA. I also added Sound. The filter does not plot, so if you want to see it, you can add another HMA indie. In the pic is a GC 10R chart with the HMAwave set to Period 21 and the filter HMA set to 144. You can disable the Filter and the Sound.

EMASlope

We like our MA's to show us the slope. An astute trader asked if I could color the EMA different colors for different slopes. This indie will paint two colors for positive and two colors for negative depending on slope. The slope triggers are set to 30 and 60 degrees in pic, but are adjustable. label in the right margin indicates the indicator and is colored same as the indicator line.

This indie has a button to enable or disable the indie. I find this handy to have several values of the indie so I can de-clutter my chart, but still look at other values of EMA. In the pic is a 21 and a 55 EMA that can be hidden with the click of the button. You can set the column that the button shows in.

R1 July 22, 2021: A friend was using this indie with an oscillator as the input and when the oscillator max'd out at zero or 100 (no more slope) the color defaulted to the negative slope. I added code to default to the EMAflat slope if the slope goes to zero.
R2 Aug 14,2021: I found an error that colored the lines improperly when the 'Use Angle' was not selected....

PriceLineRR

Hello Traders, after downloading and using the Price Line indie that I downloaded from FIO, I decided that it would be nice to see where Stops might be as the price moves around. You can make these lines +/- ticks from the current price. In the pic, they are set to 20 ticks. The Plum colored lines are 20t above and below the current price.

There is also a button along the X-axis that allows you to enable or disable the indie if needed.

Trade Well...

R1: 2/5/2021. Trader NgoLimit wanted a shorter price line. I changed the minimum length to 1, so it will draw thru the current candle to 1 candle back.
R2: 7/8/2021. I added PriceLineRRatr to the ZIP. PriceLineRRatr draws the RR lines X ATRs above and below the current price. The ZIP now includes both indies. Thanks Brett for the suggestion.

IV Percentile

The Implied Volatility (IV) Percentile indicator attempts to gauge IV. This is a simple oscillator that returns an IV value from 0 to 100 Percent that's within a selectable lookback period. The user can compare the IV value to either an adjustable axis Value or against a Simple Moving Average.

This is not to be confused with IV Rank which is similar in function but uses a more simplistic calculation.

I have used this indicator as a filter for several mechanical strategies.

Remember...

When the VIX is high, it�s time to buy. When the VIX is low, it�s time to go.

This indicator was compiled using NinjaTrader 8.0.23.1 64-bit
