I don't have the indicator from Innovative but here is a side-by-side comparison of Ninzarenko on the left and Unirenko (from this forum) on the right. As you can see they are quite similar. I was using settings of 4,4. Ninzarenko does not have a setting for offset. Ninzarenko bars look a lot cleaner.

that is because ninja bar parm doesn't allow value = 0, thus offset minimum value = 1 even if you enter 0 for offset.
This version get around that restriction, set offset = 100 and it will treat it as Zero internally.
Note: this goes to bartypes folder not indicators folder, this is NT8 version.

Hi Cory, is there a version compatible with NT7?

Hi Cory, is there a version compatible with NT7?

1) open ninja 7, leave it open
2) go to folder \Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Type
3) open UniRenkoBarsType.cs to edit it
4) add the following code , the final edit should look like what I post, save file
//set offset = 0
if (bars.Period.BasePeriodValue == 100)
openOffset = 0;

Code

                trendOffset    = bars.Period.Value  * bars.Instrument.MasterInstrument.TickSize;
                reversalOffset = bars.Period.Value2 * bars.Instrument.MasterInstrument.TickSize;
				//bars.Period.BasePeriodValue = bars.Period.Value;	//### Remove to customize OpenOffset
				openOffset = Math.Ceiling((double)bars.Period.BasePeriodValue * 1) * bars.Instrument.MasterInstrument.TickSize;
          //set offset = 0
		if (bars.Period.BasePeriodValue == 100)
                    openOffset = 0;

                barOpen = close;
                barMax  = barOpen + (trendOffset * barDirection);
                barMin  = barOpen - (trendOffset * barDirection);

5) open any indicator and compile it
6) re-start ninja, enter offset = 100 to test

@michealf Hello and thank you...best regards

NT8 strategy builder... I would like to use Unirenko on multiple time-frames. The strategy builder is limited to the basic Bar Types.

I do see the // Add a 5 minute Bars object to the strategy
Add(PeriodType.Minute, 3); // BarsArray[2]

If I tried to place the Unirenko bar type, how would the open, offset and tick be set....

I was hoping I could simply use the Strategy Builder.

Any help.

Thank you! Greg, Hershey, PA

have some problem for import the file (ninjatrader 8)
unhandled exception: End of central directory record could not be found
resolved: i just edit the code and compile into the ninjtrader 8

that is because ninja bar parm doesn't allow value = 0, thus offset minimum value = 1 even if you enter 0 for offset.
This version get around that restriction, set offset = 100 and it will treat it as Zero internally.
Note: this goes to bartypes folder not indicators folder, this is NT8 version.

Hi @cory

I would be grateful if you could advise if this version of UniRenko that you tweaked should work with Ninjatrader 8 Tick Replay enabled?

When I enable Tick Replay, the UniRenko bars disappear?

Appreciate your advice
