1. Please have a look at the attachment and help to decide whether the marked bar is 'first entry short or first entry long'?
2. How do we count the bar that is both above and below the previous bar i.e it should be a signal to go long or go short?

need to see more of the chart for me personally but i wouldn't short any of that if your looking for a short i would short the bearish engulfing around 11:30

the long bar would of been 7 bars to your right the bullish engulfing.

Hi Guys, could anyone add, along with Volume, Trend and Relation, an indication of Volume per Price? regards,

@muzhik, be surprised if you get any response to this without additional information and a marked up chart.

At first read it looks like you want Order Flow information with cells showing buys and sells at each level. If that is the case then most will expect you to run a separate indicator called Order Flow (available on Futures.io and vendors like @gomi https://www.gomicators.com/ and others) Check that site and see if the images are what you are trying to describe.

If it is something else then post a chart with text showing what you want.

Good Trading All !!!

jmont1 , I meant that, for Example with the Swing type �Standard� the Histogram is calculated, not Volume, but Volume by price. By Volume per price I mean the following - Total Volume of line/leg divided by the number of prices or tick increments spanned in the line/leg. The average volume required to move price one tick increment. Regards,

@muzhik, with that clarification a programmer should be able to make the changes if they are willing to. Recommend reposting the full request to this thread:

Want your NinjaTrader indicator created, free?

Hey guys, I thought many of you would enjoy and benefit from this thread. My intention is to have each poster reply and describe in as much detail as possible an indicator they want created for NinjaTrader.

I tried using the indicator through strategy builder and I am getting the error:

'NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.Strategies.Strategy.PriceActionSwing(PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingStyle, double, int, bool, bool, bool, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingLengthStyle, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingDurationStyle, bool, bool, bool, bool, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingTimeStyle, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingVolumeStyle)' is a 'method', which is not valid in the given context

This is my code:

PriceActionSwing1 = PriceActionSwing(Close, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingStyle.Standard, 7, 20, false, true, true, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingLengthStyle.Ticks, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingDurationStyle.Bars, true, false, false, false, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingTimeStyle.False, PriceActionSwing.Base.SwingVolumeStyle.Absolute);

This was autogenerated code from strategy builder.. by the way,,

What am I missing??

I was previously using the PASpro with divergences checked. Now when I load the indicator on the chart, and check the divergences, the swings disappear appear and the divergences don't plot. Change the divergences to false and swings come back?

And ideas what I am missing? Driving me nuts as I have been using the indicator for months - I am not a coder and use the indicator right out of the box as is.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hello, I did not want to ask a question here, but I have studied c# in depth and I am still having trouble using this indicator in a strategy. All I am trying to do is check the values of the previous swing, and the current swing. I cannot figure it out. There are so many lines of code to dig through, I have had trouble even creating an object of the class. I read Dorschdens post on how to use it in a strategy, but that code no longer appears to be relevant. If anyone could help me I would be so appreciative.

Thanks,
Cade

Hello everyone,

I have a similar problem: I am trying to access the max and min of the last swing in a NT7 strategy but can not get it to work. I am using:

Print(PriceActionSwing(20,120, SwingStyle.Ticks, true).swingHigh.LastPrice.ToString());

in order to debug it, but all I am getting at the output are zeros.

Thanks for any hints as to what I should be doing!
