I use the attached pivot indicator - it's got mid points, regular pivots and previous day high, low, close. It also allows you to select your start and stop time which is important for me because I like to designate 9:30am est and 4:00pm EST as open and close for ES.

I was going to put this is in the download section but before I do that, I think it needs 1 tweak that I don't know how to do.

I'd like to add plots for current day Open, High and Low based on the start and stop times that I've set. Can someone tweak the code to add those plots? There is a canned CurrentDay OHL in NT but it doesn't allow you to calculate from a time that you can designate.

Thanks,
Todd

Hello! How do you import this indicator with Ninjatrader? I have tried with Utilities, but it doesn't work.

Since just the .cs file was attached, you cannot import it.

Tip
You need to manually copy the .cs file to Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\bin\custom\indicators, then either exit NinjaTrader or manually recompile any indicator (Tools - Edit NinjaScript - Indicator, pick any, open, click F5 to compile).

I have tried.
But you need a license.
I have no license only for free trade
Is it possible to make a zipfile from it?

Thx and Regards Frans

Pretty sure you can just do this:


Big Mike
You need to manually copy the .cs file to Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\bin\custom\indicators, then exit NinjaTrader

I don't think the free license will prevent it from auto-compiling on start up, but I admittedly have no experience as I bought Ninja a few minutes after I discovered it.
