I found this cool indicator through NT ecosystem. I would appreciate help with adding value plots for trending up bars and trending down bars. https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share-download/paint-trending-bars/
Thank you
Abdus
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I think you're saying you'd rather have some visual indicator of the HA color, but not have that color on the bars?
Do you want an indicator in a separate pane(like an oscillator)?
Do you want the plots to appear as a moving average of sorts, on the price panel?
Do you want to affix the plots to say the daily open, or something else?
EDIT
Here is an example of a random indicator that either plots green, red or blank. THe value is arbitrarily pinned to the Daily Open price(notice the dots). But this value could be plotted anywhere in any way.
Thank you for the OTF indicator. I might have misworded what I was trying to say. I was looking for a way to use the indicator in the strategy builder as I don't have the skills to code otherwise.
Added a plot called "MyState". This is in the attached, modified indicator.
This value can either be +1 or -1. If its positive, it is +1,etc.
2nd image shows selecting this plot in the strategy builder.
BUilt a simple strat, that ENTERS LONG if the PREVIOUS indie value(MyState) is -1, and the CURRENT indie value is +1. Arbitrary stop of 20 pips, tgt of 20 pips.
Could you please help me do the same thing with this indicator? I tried to replicate your changes from the other indicator, but it messed up the chart. Also, this is a really good indicator for entries, exits, and filtering. I would like the colors (green and red of cStepMA) to act as 1 and -1, regardless of whether a bar on the chart is closing red below the green line (cStepMA). I would much appreciate your help and that of anyone else that decides to help.
Just a note, this and the other indicator are a bit screwy. It looks like it has had a lot of hands in there, and it seems there are things missing.
This indicator looks like an old NT7 indicator, that was ported over to work in NT8, but does not have the typical structure of NT8.
Added plot called "MyState."
By default, I set it to transparent so that it doesn't awkwardly scale the chart, but for some reason, it doesn't show up in the properties section, and I think this is b/c the script is missing the normal "State.SetDefaults", and instead uses NT7 structure.
However, it should be accessible from within the strategy builder as shown in the image.
@forrestang Thank you your work is much appreciated and you right I also noticed "It looks like it has had a lot of hands in there, and it seems there are things missing" but nonetheless its a nice indicator.
