V4: 1/13/17, added option to display ruler in Ticks or Dollars. Also can now multiply ruler values by "LotSize" (default is 1). This version also contains a modified ChartHelper which allows ruler to work properly on 6E and 6J symbols.
V3: 11/30/14, corrects a small coding error from V2 which did not display ruler default colors properly.
A tick ruler displays anywhere on your chart with a middle mouse click, click on ruler again to remove it. Great for marking an entry and setting stop and target or for trade management.

Is there anyone that can code the Ninjatrader7 indicator named "RulerV4" by MBAgearhead. He did a fantastic job
and this indicator is invaluable. It is exactly what many of us were looking for. If you havent used it, everyone should
take a look. However, I am also transitioning to Ninjatrader 8 and would very much love it if someone could code that
indicator for Ninjatrader 8....that would be so awesome !!!

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.

Sample - Decimal Place Price Formatter Helper V1.2 NT8b10
The 2 sample indicators here include a simple cut and paste code to enable you to directly format your indicators' price markers (or within market analyzer) directly in your properties configuration. It uses an addon called 'Sim22_PriceFormatter' to calculate this.
As of beta 10 this feature is not yet available, but I have requested it....lets just wait and see
Features:
* Set decimal places from 0 - 7 (including 'SameAsInstrument' setting for your price panel indicators).
* Will not 'round to tick size' for instruments like the ES, but reflect the true value of the indicator instead.
* Works on bond prices if set to 'SameAsInstrument'.
You will find the two indicators within the Indicators>Samples folder.
I will not make other indicators for you so don't ask.... this is a helper to help you do it!
Remember this for beta so let me know of any bugs via pm. Any suggestions too.

Here is a sample of a panel button that turns an indicator visibility on/off via a 'click'. You do not have to refresh the chart each time.
Version 3.2
* Fixed for NT8b9. Recent NT8 changes to multi-threading created freezing when the chart was loaded.
I was so used to my MarketDelta buttons that I had to do it for NT8 .
This indicator draws an EMA both via the Plot method and the OnRender method so you can see the code for both techniques.
Thank you very much to "Edge" for the original "button" code and help.
Version3 - Nov 2015:
* Used 'UserControlCollection' instead of 'ChartControl' for safer usage and it does not interfere with the bars or plotting.
* Created smaller button.
* You can have up to 10 buttons per panel (or more if you change the code). So you can add 10 ema's and specify which position you would like via 'Column#'.
* Buttons are hard-coded to plot at the top-left of the panel but you can change this in the code if you like via 'myGrid'.
* The button will appear within the panel the indicator is plotted. Please read the 'summary' at the top of the code for limitations of usage. Use at your own risk.
Version 3.1
* Fixed bug that prevented button working when state changed from Historical to RealTime.

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.
Remember to read the instructions within the zip file

January 3rd, 2016 11:22 AM Scalpingtrader thanks for the sample! Converted the button to toggle the daily VWAP Bands (to be found in the NT8 conversion thread), s
o they're out of the way when looking at higher timeframes.
January 1st, 2016 11:23 PM Jaba Very useful. Is NT7 version available?
May 30th, 2016 09:49 AM bobc635 Thanks for the help.... I have a bunch of custom NT7 indis that I built that need to convert. I am just now starting on
