I see no file in downloads named DoubleMAPaint.
I have DoubleMA.
Would it be possible instead of taking screenshots of settings to post a template file?
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\templates\Chart\Templatename.xml
Its much easier.
Thanks

DoubleMAPaint is in beta version, we had some strange things with ADXVMA as one of the MA, but it's available here.

Sharky I like your charts and I am going to check them out. Thanks for opening my eyes to looking at the ZN by the way. Very interesting.

Hi Sharky,

I am trying to set my chart up but having some difficulty. Can you let me know what is wrong with my dots?

Also I do trade more in ES and was wondering if anyone had set sharky's setup in ES?

RodS I had the same problem until I deleted the current ADXVMA in my indicator list and downloaded a new one from the Ninjatrader forum.

Some of these downloads I'm guessing corrupted the original ADXVMA so just wacked it and got a new one and the dots are perfect...those dots work!

RodS. Poocher is spot on. The problem is on the ADXVMA.

Regarding the ES it works but you've got to be real careful to make sure the market is trending on a larger timeframe and not choppy at all or else you'll get whipsawed like crazy. Also, need to use a reasonable sized stop. I've been applying it to the 6E with a fair amount of success. Maybe check that out.

RodS. Poocher is spot on. The problem is on the ADXVMA.

The difference between the old and new ADXVMA is that the old has CalculateOnBarClose = true; and the new one has nothing.

I am not sure why everyone tries to put everything on COBC false all the time, they are always looking for that 'edge'... I never use that so never saw this problem.

Anyway, can be fixed by editing ADXVMA and adding back the CalculateOnBarClose = true; at the top in Initialize, or like you said just download a diff version.
