DetrendedPriceOscillator_V2 - DPO_V2 5 *
This version (V2) of the DetrendedPriceOscillator (DPO) provides performance improvements and new features. My thanks to @Zondor for his code enhancements and suggestions.

This indicator has been exported with Ninja Trader 7.0.1000.22.

The version has been modified for use with BBand2_V4 but can be used with V3 except for the ability to be able to keep all of the MAs in sync between the 2 indicators.

A more complete description of the use and purpose of this indicator can be found in the original post contained below.

The V2 changes are as follows:


DPO_V2 provides:

1. Additional MA selections to allow the MAs to be kept in sync with those provided in BBands2_V4.
2. Restructured the code to provide reusable instances of external indicators. (Thank you @Zondor)
3. Provide the mode “Both” which will create both the Fast and Slow plots in the same panel. In this mode there are 3 region colors, Fast, Slow, and the union of the Fast and Slow. The 3rd color is the blending of the selected Fast and Slow colors. (as shown in screen shot with BBand2_V4)
4. The periods for Fast and Slow are now independent parameters to allow for mode switching.
5. The selected period is rounded to an odd number to allow a true midrange number to be used in the DPO algorithm.
6. Added lines (.5, -.5) for possible breakout signal
7. Changed default plot line and region colors for better contrast when the “Both” mode is selected.


Information from original Post follows

This indicator was written to support the strategy described by Barbara Starr, PhD in the July, 2014 edition of Stock & Commodities Magazine in an article entitled Profit With Dual Oscillators & Bands. In the article she describes her technique for trading using a Dual Band Bollinger Band indicator with different standard deviation settings then normally used, and two instances of DetrendedPriceOscillator with different period settings.

She also described that her investigation of the DPO indicators available revealed that depending on the trading platform used there were 2 different formulas used in this oscillator. Ninja Trader does not provide a DPO with their software and although NT tech support provided 2 versions that were posted on their website neither matched the formula in the indicator she described in her article.

The indicator provided here allows the user to:

1. easily configure the visual aspects of two instances of the indicator.
2. choose from multiple MA types.
3. use optional region painting
4. use smoothing

To configure DPOs as shown in the screenshot install 2 instances of the indicator and on the second instance set DPOSpeedRate = Slow. The plot color, region fill color, and the MA period will be set for the slow DPO as shown. The default MA is set to SMA on both.


The screenshot provided shows the 2 instances of the DPO, one fast (9 period) and the other slow (20 period) along with the BBand2_V3 Bollinger Band indicator which has been posted and described separately. Although the BBand2_V3 indicator is shown here any dual Bollinger band indicator may be used with the inner band set to 1 stand deviation and the outer band set to 3 standard deviations.

In Ms. Strarr’s write up when the 9 period DPO price crosses the zero line the price is near the BB mid-range MA, it is a potential entry point for more aggressive traders, whereas when the 20 period DPO crosses its zero line the price is near/on the 1 std. dev. BB line it is a potential entry point for less aggressive traders. She is quick to point out that fake outs can still occur. Also, in her article all of the examples were with stocks and no mention of its effectiveness was mentioned for any other instrument.

I would be glad to provide other information from the article in a separate thread if anyone has interest in experimenting with this strategy, but cannot post the full text of the article. I have not traded live with it yet and have done only limited back testing as of this post.


Change Log:
Date_______Description
06/30/2014 Fix minor problem with default colors when switching back and forth between Fast and Slow
Note: Other then on the initial switch from Fast to Slow the period must be changed manually if/when going back.

07/02/2014 Fix problem with changed region paint colors not being retained after workspace or NT is closed.
08/17/2014 Version 2 released.

NT7 GbDivergence3 Spotter 5 *
This indicator was posted by PFSMedical
He requested it be converted to NT7

It appears to be a very interesting divergence spotter in that it plots the number 1 position and then all subsequent divergence points.
The updates seem to be working correctly at first glance. If something else is not behaving properly please let me know

PFSMedical post is as follows:

this is an indicator that measures divergence ..... it was developed for ninja 6.5 by a person no longer trading...
it measures peaks in the stochastics, and numbers them .... on both the indicator, and price...
since i'm a trader, and NOT a programmer/coder .... i have given up on trying to convert this myself to the new ninja 7 format ...
would like to have this converted to ninja 7 by someone who actually enjoys doing that kinda thing ....

thanks ....
sounds are available upon request from PFSMedical or you can create them yourself at this location:
https://www2.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php

enjoy

XTL - eXpert Trend Locator 5 *
XTL is an indicator that originally was introduced in eSignal Advanced Get. This a version that approximate in a good way the original version (which formula seems to be secret and not shared by eSignal company). It helps you to easily define in what kind of trend you are.
Its calculation is based on CCI and a fixed value of that indicator:
- if CCI value<-fixed value you're in a short trend (red bars);
- if -fixedvalue<=CCI<=+fixedvalue you are in a non trend/flat period (black bars);
- if CCI>fixed value you're in a long trend period (blue bars);

In this version created by me you can customize:
- the fixed value (standard setting is 37)
- CCI period (stardard settings are 21 or 35)
- uptrend/flat trend/downtrend bar color

Very useful if used on tick chart or range bar chart

v 1.00 2015 Jul 8 - First Release, no bugs
v 1.01 2015 Jul 14 - Added Public Indicator Value String

PriceLine Indicator NT 7 4 *
Attached is a cleaned up version of my original NT 6 indicator which now works in NT 7.0.1000.7

I did not make the conversion and want to send a "big thank you!" out to the person who did.

I just cleaned up the properties section of the indicator and am re-submitting it.

Just like the original, the current price draws a horizontal line which is fully adjustable by:

New Highs and Lows 5 *
Exported using NT Version 7.0.1000.15

This is a simple indicator, which detects new highs and lows. The highs and lows can be shown both as paintbars or as diamonds.

The definition of a new high can be either based on the bar high or the bar close. A new high based on the bar high is the highest high over the lookback period. A new high based on the bar close is the highest close over the lookback period. The same logic is applied to new lows, which can also be calculated from the bar lows or the bar closes.

With default settings the bar detects new 89-bar highs and lows.

The indicator works on both candlesticks and OHLC bars.

Update August 10, 2013: New highs and lows can be either based on high/low or on the close of the current bar. Highs and lows can be either shown as paintbars or as diamonds. Efficiency of algorithm improved.

TrendSpotter 5 *
this is an auto trendline indicator that was on the Ninja forum. Be sure to click true for all of the downtrend/uptrend settings and to fix the colors of the lines for up/dwn trend.

it would be great if we had the ability to adjust the width of the lines. alas in this one the width is set.

it doesn't cast an arrow like our old auto trendline which is helpful for me but it might be a nice option if anyone goes to improving it.

mostly i like that it shows the squeeze of trendlines by plotting overhead lines as well. on the 3 minute ES i'm using the setting of Long Term Period: 9 and Short Term Period of: 90 i know that sounds crazy but that's what gave me the screen shot attached. hope it helps.
