There were some code breaking changes from 8.0 to 8.1. For example, If you are using any vendor indicators, the "location" where your MachineID would be referenced in the vendor licensing would be different--that's something you would need the vendor to update. 

Old location: NinjaTrader.Cbi.License.MachineId
New 8.1 location: NinjaTrader.Cbi.UserEntitlement.MachineId 

Any "old" vendor indicators would be looking for a location that doesn't exist. 

If they're open source indicators that aren't working, you would need to post the errors that you're receiving--you can export the errors from the NinjaScript editor. 

To get the most accurate backtest in NinjaTrader you either need to use high fill resolution, 1 tick backtest, or code the strategy to use 1 tick data to fill orders.

It's the same calculation between ta.ema and the NT EMA. In NinjaTrader, if you don't set your calculation to OnPriceChange, the current bar is probably different. I just tested and I get all the same results for historical bars between the two (I only have realtime on NT and not TradingView). 

Anyone have the original files that they would share for t-rex, sumo pullback, solar wind rk, rev out scalping, zone gpt, or any of the other entry style indicators?

This once great and free platform that served my stock backtesting needs for over a decade has now decided to quietly REMOVE all ability to get stock quotes, and instead requires full registration and a live futures trading account just to open the program. I even spoke with a sales rep that keeps calling me every day after I made the mistake of registering and I said I stopped using NT because they removed the crucial ability to analyze stocks and ETFs from the software and he told me with a puzzled tone that he didn't know what I was talking about and that NT was always a futures-only platform. LOL. Forget this cr@p.

Odd, I still evaluate stocks with NT

You didn't mention how much slippage you're giving your trade entry signals in backtesting. If it's not to the level of what you observed in real-time, that's most likely the reason for the difference.

That won't give you better results with your current issue--you need to load a secondary data series, 1 tick data, and then when you use your enter (ex. EnterLongLimit), the BarsInProgress needs to be set to the 1 tick data series. This will give you pretty close to realistic.

From which vendor??

How about you try googling "Market Profit Pack"

can you pls provide an image for this. I am not getting it right..Thanks!!

Let us google that for you: http://daytradetowin.com/blog/2014/10/29/how-to-customize-ninjatrader-drawing-tools/

Hi all,

 

Can somebody please share or code central pivot range for NT7. I am looking for code which takes last 12 bars highest high, lowest low and close to calculate central pivot range. Using this data central pivot range to be plotted on next 12 bars. I want to plot the same on 5 min chart.

 

following is the code:

 

pivot = (H+L+C)/3

BP = (H+L)/2

TP = pivot + (pivot -BP)

 

kindly help.

 

regds,s

This can be done, but if we are at bar X and we look back 12 bars for the calculation and then project the calculation forward 12 bars, how do we define where bar X is?

thank you very much, no matter it easy.

should paste this code into the formula of any indicator?

From already thank you very much

You should be able to use that code in any of the indicators you have developed. Again, extremely easy to bypass, so it will be virtually useless if you are distributing your indicator to anyone other than yourself.

Take a look at this example: https://www.sendspace.com/file/cppt2v

Like everyone else said, this would be extremely easy to bypass/break, but at least it's a start to learning.

Hi.

I created a flag and want to add a license.

use the machine id

They know some tutorial on how to do this?

 

thanks

It really depends on what you are trying to do. If you are trying to do some sort of server validation, that is going to be a lot more involved, but here is something to get you started if it is hard coding machine ID's

private bool ValidMachine = false;
protected override void OnStartUp()
{
   ValidMachine = false;
   if (NinjaTrader.Cbi.License.MachineID == "MACHINEIDGOESHERE")
       ValidMachine = true;
}

Here's another idea on hard coding a list of valid machine IDs: http://m.ninjatrader.com/support/forum/showthread.php?p=277780

this is some kind of Overbought/Oversold Indicator similar Stochastics.

 

I was looking for Tom Demark Trendlines Indicator.

Anyone have it?

I've coded something similar, PM me with the definitions you were using and I'll check my code to see if it's the same logic

JDizzle22 is working on it, he will share it for us when everything works fine..

Here is the indicator I have been working on with 10suited, so if you have questions on how to use it in trading, those questions should not be directed toward me as I just did the coding: https://www.sendspace.com/file/tvg6we

Howdy Woundbird---Happy New Year to U and ALL!!--

Just another one to add to the list for U to try out--THANKS lululee for Ur uploads--MUCH appreciated!!

Seems pretty slick---(maybe overkill for what U seek-pretty cool though)--NO credit to me--reached out to someone and they provided this to try out--

https://www.sendspace.com/file/ackx1m

Messed with it for a bit on NT7V30 Win10---The only thing I noticed initially was U need to change the parameter in settings under "Visusal" --"Panel"-- to Same as input series--otherwise plots in new pane=blank pane #2--

when U load the indi U will notice upper right hand corner of chart--Session names and clock--If U click on one of these it will display a box and Ur color of choice background color---If U click on it again it will take away the box---thus if all U want is London---only click on London--and it will display a box using the times U put into the indi--the image I am attaching is with all the sessions boxes displayed--NOTE: I did NOT change any of the default settings for SESSIONS in parameters just put on a chart and changed colors

Anywhoo play with and hope it helps--

Take care

Have a Great One!!

 

sorry if no work trying attach video to this post

give up did once many Moons ago could do it-- and guess cause Im old cant remember--Fricking alzheymers--LOL--not really funny though when it hits U Ull know--Then Ull forget---Get it---LOL

In Initialize make sure this statement is there (it may be set to false): Overlay = true;

Hi friends, I wish to plot some indicators with its input series as Minute on Tick/Range charts, I tried to put a tick chart and a minute chart (Transparent, for input series of indicators) but it gets messed-up. I hope, someone could help me

You will need a MTF indicator for whichever indicators you want to use....read about the limitations in NT7 (Equidistant bar spacing), http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum/showthread.php?t=57331

Does anybody have and using TD Sequential and combo for NT7 ? They are very good for finding long term top and bottom. I could not find them for NT7. If someone have then plz share.

Thanks :)

That stuff is not the easiest to implement, mainly because the books are not very clear on the entirety of the concepts....so there are a few different ways to implement it just based on how it is technically described and then how some ppl online interpret it.....PM me with the portion of the rules you want to implement. From reading his book(s) and my own interpretation:

http://s24.postimg.org/7qbcv9ibp/Reversals.jpg

1 period SMA of 240 CCI should be like that: SMA(CCI(240), 1), 1)

No, I think when you copied that part of the code you didn't copy the entire thing....1 period SMA of a 240 CCI would be SMA(CCI(240), 1)[0]....The last part of your code " ,1)" is copied from this part of the code: CrossBelow(SMA(CCI(240), 1), SMA(CCI(240), 20), 1)

CrossBelow(IDataSeries series1, double value, int lookBackPeriod) -> So what the CrossBelow is saying is if the SMA(CCI(240), 1) crosses below the SMA(CCI(240), 20) in the last 1 bar(s), return true, else false.

Admis-

 

It would be too much to ask if you create an indicator for Nt7 that measures and alerts every 10-point move for the Emini SP500.

 

I´m finding that the 10 point rule works many days. For instance, today the sp500 did a move from 2071 to 2082. Many times I forget about this rule because I am concentrating on bookmap or other indicator, so an indicator that reminds us this rule would be very helpful.

 

I´m sure other members in this forum will appreciate it as well.

Here is something that you could probably use: http://ninza.co/product/market-step

Btw

 

SMA(CCI(240), 20), 1) Is it SMA with period of 20 of CCI with period of 240 one bar ago? If that so, so what period of SMA is that one: SMA(CCI(240), 1) ?

This is how the SMA is structured: SMA(DataSeries, Period) -> in your example, DataSeries would be CCI(240) and the Period of the SMA would be 1.....so it would be a 1 period SMA of the 240 CCI
