The indicator displays the opening range and the current open of the RTH session. This version is a multi-timeframe (MTF) version of the standard OpeningRange V42 indicator. The indicator adds a secondary minute bar series to the chart, which is used to calculate the opening range. It has the following advantages over the standard version:
For tick, range and volume charts: The standard indicator may not display the opening range correctly, if the last bar expands the opening range and closes after the opening period. The MTF version of the indicator will display the opening range correctly, even if the primary bar series does not contain the necessary information for its calculation. An example is shown on the chart attached.
Use with minute charts: You want to use this indicator with minute charts, if the opening period is not an integer multiple of the bar period. Example: You trade 7 min charts and your opening period is 30 minutes.
You can only use this indicator with an appropriate session template. The opening time will align itself to the start time of the RTH session, as specified via indicator settings. The hybrid setting assumes that you want to use the 3rd intraday session as RTH session for FOREX and currency futures and the second session for all other instruments.
Example ES: Select a session template with the following sessions: Session 1 (night session) 15:30 - 8:30 Central Time, Session 2 (RTH) 8:30 - 15:15 Central Time. Select second session for opening range.
Select length of opening period: The opening period can be selected via indicator dialogue box.
Select Offset: With an offset of 00:00, the indicator aligns to the start of the selected session. If you enter a positive value for the offset, the opening range will be shifted forward from the session start. For example if you open a chart for ES with the session template US CME Index Futures, then the session (and the trading day) starts at 5:00 PM Central Time. To display an opening range for the regular session, you need to enter an offset of 15:30, because the regular session starts 15 hours and 30 minutes after the start of the trading day.
Display regular open or one-minute-range: The indicator allows to either display the regular open or the range of the first minute of trading after the start time selected for the opening range.
Developing range: Prior to the completion of the opening range, the indicator plots the developing range in gray to show that the range is still incomplete.
Night Session or Pre-Session Range: This is different for each instrument and refers to the electronic session prior to the session selected for the opening range.
European Session Range: You can select start and end time of the European Session in CET (Central European Time). The European Session is pre-configured for the time between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM CET.
Asian Session Range: You can select start and end time of the Asian Session in TST (Tokyo Standard Time). The Asian Session is pre-configured for the time between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM TST.
Update July 25, 2011: Serialization of the plots and indicator dialogue box changed.
Update December 8, 2013: Indicator entirely recoded. Offset added, opening period no longer needs to be aligned to the session start. Drop down property added for time zones. Custom plot added.
Update March 15, 2015: Regular open and minute range were drawn back to start of trading day on tick charts. Bug removed.
Indicator will only run on NT 7.0.1000.5 or later.
The indicator displays the current open, the initial balance (IB) and upper and lower range bands that are calculated by adding and subtracting fractions of the initial balance to the IB high and IB low. This version is a multi-timeframe (MTF) version of the standard Initial Balance Range Bands V42 indicator. The indicator adds a second minute bar series to the chart, which is used to calculate the initial balance. It has the following advantages over the standard version:
For tick, range and volume charts: The standard indicator may not display the initial balance correctly, if the last bar expands the initial balance and closes after the opening period. The MTF version of the indicator will display the initial balance correctly, even if the primary bar series does not contain the necessary information for its calculation. An example is shown on the chart attached.

Example ES: Select a session template with the following sessions: Session 1 (night session) 15:30 - 8:30 Central Time, Session 2 (RTH) 8:30 - 15:15 Central Time. Select second session for opening range.
Select length of opening period: The length of the period for establishing the initial balance can be selected via indicator dialogue box. The default setting is 60 minutes.
Select Offset: With an offset of 00:00, the indicator aligns to the start of the selected session. If you enter a positive value for the offset, the opening range will be shifted forward from the session start. For example if you open a chart for ES with the session template US CME Index Futures, then the session (and the trading day) starts at 5:00 PM Central Time. To display an opening range for the regular session, you need to enter an offset of 15:30, because the regular session starts 15 hours and 30 minutes after the start of the trading day.
Multipliers for range bands: The multipliers for the upper and lower range bands can also be changed. The default settings for the bands are 0.5, 1 and 2, meaning that the first upper band is built from the IB high by adding half of the IB range, and similar for the other bands.
Display regular open or one-minute-range: The indicator allows to either display the regular open or the range of the first minute of trading after the start time selected for the opening range.
Developing range: Prior to the completion of the opening range, the indicator plots the developing range in gray to show that the range is still incomplete.
Night session or pre-session range: The indicator also has an option to display the full night session, European or Asian session range. This feature is not used with the default settings. I did not add it on purpose, it was already part of the opening range indicator, and it was easier to leave it than to remove it.
European Session Range: You can select start and end time of the European Session in CET (Central European Time). The European Session is pre-configured for the time between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM CET.
Asian Session Range: You can select start and end time of the Asian Session in TST (Tokyo Standard Time). The Asian Session is pre-configured for the time between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM TST.

This Indicator draws MTF Supply and Demand Zones based on the NinjaTrader Swing Indicator.
In addition to drawing the zones, it shows a strength value on the right side of each zone.
The strength value corresponds with the number of bars to the left of the swing which are above/below the swing.
This way you get an instant idea how important the current zone is in relation to other zones on the chart.
The indicator includes the ability to show and hide the zones, the lines and also the strength output.
There are a lot of ideas how to further improve this indicator with new features but i decided to keep it as simple as possible so other people are free to add their own features without crawling through 1000 lines of code.
Exported using NinjaTrader 7.0.1000.16
2013-12-08 - Added second strength attribute for bars on the right side of the swing.
2013-12-09 - The zones will now be properly extended on lower time frames, fixed small bug.
2013-12-09 - The indicator works now with COBC = true and COBC = false
2013-12-17 - Bug fixed in range-calculation of second BarSeries
Indicator will only run on NT 7.0.1000.4 or later.
The VisualEMA is a MTF (multi-timeframe) version of the Exponential Moving Average. It will plot on any chart and allows to calculate the moving average
- from minute bars
- from second bars
- from tick bars
- from range bars
- from volume bars
For example you can display an hourly EMA on a 277 tick chart, or display a 12-period EMA calculated from a 100 tick chart on a 5 range chart.
The indicator has three modes to display the moving average:
StrategicMode: The first bar series collects the values from the secondary series without any lag on historical data, but a 1-tick lag on real-time data. This mode does not repaint, but shows the values originally recovered from the secondary bar series. On the chart the indicator in Strategy Mode is plotted yellow.
FirstTickMode: To avoid the lag for similar bars with identical time stamps, the indicator repaints the indicator value for the prior bar, after the first tick of the current bar has been registered. The one-tick repainting reduces the lag. On the chart the FirstTick Mode is shown in red.
Visual Mode: To make it easier to use the indicator visually, the indicator interpolates the distance between two consecutive bars of the secondary bar series. The interpolation algorithm works in real-time and simulates the CalculateOnBarClose = false mode for the indicator relative to the secondary bar series. It repaints the current leg of the indicator back to the prior bar of the secondary series. The interpolation adapts itself to equidistant or non-equidistant charts. The Visual Mode is shown in aqua.
This indicator comes as a protected assembly, so you cannot directly access the code.
Update August 30, 2011: 1-Tick Repainting for VisualMode and FirstTickMode was only enabled for fixed period bars. It is now also available for other bar types.
Update September 6, 2011: Bug fixed. VisualMode interpolation could be a few ticks off on real-time data.
Update November 9, 2011: Indicator entirely recoded, robustness and speed improved, lag reduced.
Update November 23, 2011: Indicator was lagging with CalculateOnBarClose = true setting. Lag is eliminated.
Update January 5, 2012: Option added to select color according to the slope of the VisualEMA. Paintbars added as a trendfilter.
Update August 15, 2012: Code updated to allow for displacement of indicator.
Update September 29, 2012: Renko option removed. Indicator could not always be called from a strategy, bug removed.
Please remove prior versions of the indicator, before installing the new release:
(1) Remove old assembly via File -> Utilities -> Remove NinjaScript Assembly.
(2) Shut down NinjaTrader and restart it.
(3) Install new file via File -> Utilities -> Import NinjaScript.

June 1st, 2016 09:40 PM 1973Hog Thanks for the Indicator. However, try as I might, I cannot figure out how to make the Opening Range start at 09:30 ET.
I tried using the Offset as you suggested, but the OR disappears with anything other than + 00:00. I am sure it is somet
hing I am doing wrong but I cannot figure it out. Your help would be most gratefully appreciated.
August 6th, 2018 12:31 PM Sakthi I started using this and seems good.. However, can someone explain what is the nos at the right now and how to interpret
the same?
Appreciate your response..
Cheers,

November 23rd, 2017 02:07 AM moerfutures It is one of the main tools of three I use to successfully pull money from any market every single day... first is eds l
evels, but in RTrader they are even more detailed, and vp, the only thing I would like to see is a delta print above or
below the price at a specified number of levels to count. Thank you so much.. AWESOME
April 3rd, 2024 04:20 PM deandavis Thanks for your indicators. I can only imagine the hours you put into coding them I am looking for your gbMACD can y
