Hi,
In the above post (#1526) if you look at the second pics you see that i selected "tick" not Gann.

byi......what i'm trying to point out is, with NT7 indicator - it does exactly what i wanted to plot with closes(please refer to pic in the above post. I would like to see the same thing in NT8

I will include some additional pics to clarify what i'm trying to say.

Thank you,
Sudhir

Hope i'm clear

not sure either what the problem is. but on my end nt8 is using the close values:

but what's interesting, under swing values > volume, I can only use "absolute". if I select "relative", I get an overflow error message. if I remember correctly @dorschden had a modified version, but it never got updated. but not sure if that would solve the problem either.

@Silvester17

Thank you very much Silvester, I'm hoping that you would look this post. Great, this is what i'm looking for.

So now i know that is some thing on my end. I even deleted and re-installed the indicator without any success. Now i know what i will do this weekend

Hope the Volume issue gets fixed.

Thanks again,
Sudhir

I'm experiencing strange issues with the latest version (v20) in NT 8.0.9.

I get unhandled exception errors and I also lose the ability to change the text color displayed (it is always black no matter what I select for lower high, higher high etc).

In trying to track down why the error occurs it may be related to my Fuji Xerox printer that does not use "Courier" but instead Courier New. However, even if I change the indicator code from Courier to Courier New I still get the color display issue.

There is also one other anomaly that I can't figure out. If you clear the "label" field so that the indicator does not show its name and values at the top of your chart then the P A S does not have any name at all when you scroll through the indicators for that chart. Again, I have tried to track down what in the code can be replaced to correct this but I can't find it.

Anyone else experiencing any issues or have any suggestions on how to fix mine ?

Thanks in advance

Hi Hoolio,
I do not have a version number on my PAS indicator, just a date of 19-12-2016. Mine is working fine with NT8.0.9.0.

Regarding the name issue, you need to make adjustments to the set.State code as below to stop it from appearing on the chart but to still show up in the indicator list:

Code

protected override void OnStateChange()
		{
			if (State == State.SetDefaults)
			{
				Name			= "PriceActionSwing"; //Sets the name in the list of indicators - see State == State.DataLoaded for removing from chart
			}
			else if (State == State.DataLoaded)
			{
	            Name = ""; //See State == State.SetDefaults to set name so it appears in indicator list
			}
			
			
		}

Thanks for the help.

My exception error may be due to another indicator that will be updated and hopefully resolved this week. I'll find out.

I tried your code snippets to see if I could get PriceActionSwing to remain named in the list of indicators but not on the chart but it didn't work for me

@hoolio, also been getting unhandled exception errors. Have not had time to do the research for which indicator since I use "too" many. Hopefully you have confirmed it here and I will try to also check it on my system.

P A S is one of my favorite indi's so I hope it can be corrected quickly.

Check this thread from NT Forum which confirms the approach I outlined.
Make sure you restore or remove and reapply the PAS indicator afterwards to get it to apply.

The full PriceActionSwing package for NinjaTrader 8.0 is now ready. Thanks to @poncho there was already a version floating around. This version now also includes the PriceActionSwingPro next to the PriceActionSwing and the PriceActionSwingOsciliator.

I just sent Big Mike a message with the PriceActionSwing indicators for NT8, because I can't edit the indicator in the Free Section, so he needs to upload the indicator. He'll probably post a message here, when he uploaded the PriceActionSwing to the download section.

There are two things which I didn't convert. I didn't integrated the GUI elements for the statistic and the risk management features. I might add that within the next couple of weeks. The logic is already in the code. If you need the values you can add "Print"-statements in the code to send the values to the output window. And there is no support for any GomCD related stuff anymore. I might add something similar in the future as well, but no promise there. Every other feature is in there and should work like in NT7.

Thank you @dorschden for the great indicator.
I have been trying to set up a Market Analyzer with no success, Is there any change from NT7 version why you can not get the divergence signals plot from a Market Analyzer using NT8 version?
thank you very much
