CandleCode V1.0 for NT8

This is a simplified variation of Viktor Likhovidov's digital coding of candlesticks as seen in the September 2001 issue of Stocks & Commodities. Each candlestick is converted into a 3 digit number.

First Digit = High - Open
Second Digit = High - Close
Third Digit = Open - Low

Try it with various bar types and you will see different patterns emerge for minute, range, renko, etc. bar types.

This indie may have value as signaling an entry or exit, especially when used with other indies. Plus, anyone wishing to edit the code will find it very simple and easy to edit.

Those who export their chart data to Excel may find this column of data useful.

CCI Histogram Indicator Version 001

This is a modified version of CCI_Histogram_Sharky indicator.

I really like this indicator but I felt that it needed a more visual effect and broader range in levels.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Modified colors, placement of levels, settings.

Added CCI limits that goes beyond -100 or 100 and -200 or 200.

Added object types to draw when CCI goes beyond -100 or 100 and -200 or 200.

Object Types: Arrow, Dot, Diamond, Square, Triangle

Added object types to draw when CCI goes beyond -300 or 300.

Adding alignment of objects drawn.

-----------------------------------------------------------

When having "Calculate on bar close" set to False and having ShowObjects set to True it will paint erroneous painted objects. The reason for this is when price action blasts off and the CCI (let's say) hits above the 200 line it will paint the lime object and if price action reverses on the same bar which brings the CCI below the 200 line the object that got painted will stay. I haven't quit figured out how to code that portion of the code.

It's best to have "Calculate on bar close" set to True with ShowObjects = True.

It's best to have "Calculate on bar close" set to False with ShowObjects = False.

The indicator name is called CCI_Histogram_001.

CCLBands

This is the final version of the older CCLFibBands. I took Fib out of the title because it is much more than Fibs and indeed Fibs are not necessarily a core component. Users can input Fib ratios for the band widths but apart from that it's really a multi-band-type tool which can be used in a wide variety of ways.

1. Mean price based on various types of MA including BMT collective and other collectives, vwap (24 hr).
2. Mean based on day-range midprice or manually input price such as the Open, Yesterday Close or whatever you like.
3. Several types of band: ATR-based, StD based or custom default which is combination of ATR and percentage of price; also can be more or less responsive to short-term volatility; also can be based on looking back to see average maximum ranges over time to fix the outer bands and work the inner ones back from there.
4. One more minor wrinkle: can average any midline with the vwap. Also dynamic PVP is available as a mean.
5. Has target printing capability as DataSeries onetime plot dots or more extended text prints (which cannot be autoscale = falsed unfortunately), based on instant crossover of a band or later confirmed swing points (in Calc Bar Close mode only for swing option).

As far as I can tell, the indicator works well with no errors. When choosing any option involving the targets based on swing, have to keep indy in CalconBarClose = true; that confused me for a while. This because the Swing Indicator used to determine swing prices is calconbarclose only.

The attached picture shows Jan 6 am action in Gold with the mean price based on the POC/PVP price from yesterday afternoon. This is using the Manual MAtype and having a price typed into the ManualOverridePrice input. Also in this case I had the Lookback option on the band calculations. The Std bands probably would have contained price better but the purpose of this setup was to gauge whether or not the morning was looking like a rangebound day or a trend day. The price charging way above the old PVP and the outer bands clearly indicated a trend day. So in this case not used for trading signals per se, simply perspective on market situation.

There are many ways this indicator can be used. Hopefully the comments are helpful given how many options there are, but hopefully also anyone who finds bands helpful will take the time to simply experiment with different options.

CCT Keltner

This is the CCT Keltner indicator for MultiCharts, converted from NinjaTrader.

Instead of just plotting the oscillating CCT Ketlner, the indicator also highlights divergences where red is a confirmed negative divergence, green a confirmed positive divergence, and orange a potential divergence.

Overextended CCT Keltner values often signal the end of a trend, but since the CCT Keltner isn't restricted to a range of 0 to 100 (like the RSI and Stochastics), you'll need to add other indicators or price action to determine how 'overextended' overextended is.

This indicator includes the CCTKeltner function for easy use in backtesting.

Chande Kroll Stop

Exported using NT Version 7.0.1000.30

This is an implementation of the volatiliy based stop that was suggested by Tushar Chande and Stanley Kroll in their book "The New Technical Trader". The indicator comes with a long stop line (blue) and and a short stop line (red).

Calculation of long stop: The preliminary long stop is calculated by deducting a multiple of a 10-period ATR from the highest high of the last 10 bars. The long stop is then calculated as the highest of the last 20 preliminary long stops.

Calculation of short stop: The preliminary short stops are calculated by adding a ,ultiple of a 10-period ATR to the lowest low of the last 10 bars. The short stop is then calculated as the lowest of the last 20 perliminary short stops.

Calculation of ATR: The ATR can be calculated in three different ways. "Arithmetic" uses a simple moving average over the last 10 true ranges. "Exponential" uses an exponential moving average over the last 10 true ranges, while "Wilder" simply calculates the default ATR(10) which is calculated as exponential moving averages with a smaller smoothing constant.

Default settings: Default settings follow suggestions by Chande & Kroll. Following suggestions in their book the default parameters are 10, 3 and 20. Also they used a simple moving average for smoothing the true ranges. The only change that was necessary was to adapt the indicator so that it can be used intra-bar. For this purpose, the calculation does not use the (unstable) true range of the current bar nor the high of the current bar, but relies on the values for the prior bar. Just for the purpose to compare the indicator with implementations for other charting packages, it is also possible to perform calculations from the current unstable bar. When used with "COBC = False" or with the strategy analyzer (backtesting), the default settings should be used.

It is recommended to use the

Chandelier Stop

Exported using NT Version 7.0.1000.12

This is a new implementation of the chandelier stop developed by Charles LeBeau. For a long trade the chandelier stop is calculated by subtracting a multiple of the average true range over the last N bars from the highest high (chandelier) since the inception of the trade. For a short trade the chandelier stop is calculated by adding a multiple of the average true range over the last N bars to the lowest low since the inception of the trade.

Instead of calculating the stop from the highest high and the lowest low, it is also possible to calculate it from the highest close and the lowest close.

The indicator version presented here uses the average true range calculated one bar ago. This is to avoid that the stop moves away when approached by a bar, it further acts against the distortion of the average true range when the indicator is set to COBC = false and reduces CPU load. The concept of using the ATR one bar ago was already introduced with the SuperTrend M11.

UseHighLow: The chandelier stops can be calculated from highest high/lowest low or from highest close/lowest close:

Reverse Intra-bar = false: This is the default setting of the indicator. A logical signal will be generated when the close of the signal bar has taken out the stop line. The position may be reversed at the open of the next bar. The paint bars will only change colors for the bar after the signal bar. The arrow will be also plotted for the entry bar.

Reverse Intra-bar = true: This is an unusual setting for the Chandelier Stop The signal will be generated with the first tick that has plotted on the other side of the stop line. In this case the position may be reversed intra-bar for the signal bar. Paintbars and arrows will already plot for the signal bar.

Accessing the trend: The indicator comes with a BoolSeries that holds the trend. This BoolSeries can be accessed by other indicators or automated strategies.

Paintbars: The indicator has an option to display the current trend via paintbars. Downclose bars are filled, upclose bars are hollow. For the upclose bars an opacity can be selected for better visibility.

Arrows: The indicator has an option to display trend changes via an arrow.

Sound alerts: The indicator will alert to trend reversals and potential trend reversals. A potential trend reversal occurs when price touches the stop line intra-bar prior to the confirmation by a close on the other side of the stop line. The sound files are included with the indicator install file. Please unzip and copy them into the program files (x86)\ NinjaTrader 7\ sounds directory or whatever directory is used by NinjaTrader to store the sound files.

ChartScale

Previously I only had this indicator posted on Ninja Support....(but based on requests, I've added it to the BMT downloads area. As I get time, I will modify and improve the code)

Ninja charts currently do not provide an automated method....(at least none I know of)....to set a 'visual scale' on Price.
Ninja allows manually scaling of the chart, but when price moves outside the desired range, Ninja requires you to..."click the F box"...in the upper left hand corner to regain scaling, and then repeat the manual process all over again. This means that when price narrows, the smaller swings take up the entire chart, causing small swings to visually appear the same size as larger swings....and causing small candles to elongate on the chart.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have coded a very basic "scaling indicator" that will hold the Ninja charts in a desired tick range (y axis up-down). When price narrows, the chart scale will remain as you set it and the candlesticks will paint themselves showing visually appropriate swings. When/If price starts swinging significantly and moves outside of your scaled range, the indicator lets Ninja scaling take over...so price always remains within the bounds of your chart.

The ChartScale indicator automatically adjusts to any market "tick size"....and calculates the scaling range based on your settings...
- Lookback Period
- Desired # of ticks for right hand y axis

The indicator adds the appropriate amount of 'space' to the top and bottom of the chart when price narrows, maintaining a visual perspective that reflects the narrowed price swing.

NOTE: The 'blue lines' on the example are simply to help illustrate the comparison, they do not actually draw on the chart

Chop Zones

Here is an indicator that I had my programmer whip up for me as I was looking at adding time and volatility for use with Range and Renko bars.

Average Bars per minute - if the average time per minute then smoothed by a moving average is over x period of time - don't trade.

Period and Signal are from the ADX component of the DM, the reason I had my programmer use DM instead of just the ADX is to experiment with the +DI and -DI. But the + and -DI and not functional in this version but instead time per bar is used. As always my indicators have JAM in front so I can keep them in one place. Feel free to rename for your own organization process.

Choppiness Index - Bill Dreiss Chaos Theory

The zip file containing documentation has the complete story on Bill Dreiss and the "Fractal Dimension" of measuring market volatility. There is a spread sheet where the intermediate values have been calculated as a check on the NinjaTrader Indicator accuracy. The Choppiness Index has a reference to the Welles Wilder True Range Indicator, which, from a programming point of view, is an interesting demonstration of accessing one indicator from another. This is my second indicator and the first version of this type. The zip file contains the NinjaTrader zip file plus a zip file of documentation for the indicator. This indicator will become an input to an Encog Neural Net, when I finish reading the books.

Choppy Market Index V1

Ranging or trending? From 'Tackling trending and ranging markets with CMI', by Daniel Fernandez, currencytrader.com 8/11.

This indicator shows the change in price of an instrument as a percentage of the range over the same time period. If price started the period at one extreme of the range and ended at the other extreme, percentage will be 100. If it started and ended at the same price, percentage will be zero. Also shows when current price is above or below that of the 'Signal period' by coloring the CMI line green or red. In addition, there is an SMA of the CMI line. Basically, when the value is low, price isn't really going anywhere and when it's high, price is moving steadily. Overall period, signal period and SMA period are all user-configurable.

This indicator is certainly similar to some others, but I have found that it has helped me identify tops and bottoms better than the various included-with-Ninjatrader indicators that I have tried. So, I thought I'd offer it to the community, in case it's of use to anyone else.

This description is right from the currencytrader.com article:
Ranging: enter long when Smooth < 40 and CMI is red; enter short when Smooth < 40 and CMI is green. Trending: enter long when Smooth > 60 and CMI is green; enter short when Smooth > 60 and CMI is red. Exit all trades when CMI crosses 50. Divides difference between Close[0] and Close[CMIPeriod] by difference between MAX(High, CMIPeriod) and MIN(Low, CMIPeriod). Adds SMA(SMAPeriod) of that value. Colors CMI plot green when Close[0] > Close[SignalPeriod] and red when Close[0] < Close[SignalPeriod].

Fernandez's default values are 60, 20, 10. (CMI, Signal, SMA)
