Wave Trend Indicator made by @LazyBear from TradingView

Plot Account Balance, Intraday Margin*Lots, Excess Intraday Margin(if available in control panel from broker).

You must select the account in the indicator parameters.

This imports as a Chart Style not an Indicator.

***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 simply a conversion of the QQE for NT7 by Fat Tails.
Please refer to his post in the NT7 downloads section for details.
